I have a rca tv model F31672ET. I do not have the

Not possible as model listed is composite video only with two additional inputs for audio--no way I know you could do this.

Hi - pretty common problem. Not worth fixing, I'm afraid. It is caused by a defective circuit which became defective with old age. the "EEPROM."

Make sure you are selecting the correct input channel, and also make sure the yellow video cable is disconnected from both items. The two cables do not need to be connected in fact disrupt signal when they are.

try this link , it might be helpful . there is a list of remotes , find your specific remote and click view manual . when viewing manual it will give you step-by-step and all codes for your TV .

An exact replacement remote may not be available. However, a substitute remote with the functions of the original is here: http://www.remotes.com/remotes/servlet/rs?a=gmi&uuid=12930827449040&smodel=F31672ET&brand_pn=RCA_F31672ET . Most universal remotes programmed 6 months after the TV was released should have a code for this RCA TV. However, it might take a bit of searching to find the right code. You might not get all of the features from the original remote with the cheapest of the universal remotes (pip, input changes, etc). The universal remotes that can be programmed via a USB connection with a computer will do all of the features but are much more expensive.

I hope this helps.

Enter channel 00

Clip R1915 and the sound will return. But you still have a Tuner to rework. See my solution with the power problem. just before this answer!

use tv/video switch

do you need the remote, or do you have the menu button on the tv? if you dont have neither, then you could try to get a new remote.. hope it helps!
