RCA F27242GY TV when connected VCR does not recognize it

If you must purchase a universal remote, please buy an RCA universal remote with menu and input buttons. You will be glad you did! Thanks for asking and show a few hands of support!

If this particular model does not have your typical RCA jacks in the front or back, Yes you will have to purchase an RF converter box. This is a common problem for the older conventional TV. Visit your local electronic store. Thanks for asking and show a few hands of support!

My experience with the RCA F27242GY 27" TV going on and off is as follows:
Where the coaxial cable connects at rear and the base of the TV chassis part # 15062-57A is loose.

Hi

you have bad Rectifier Diode or Ic regulator.. check first the unregulated power supply before you go to regulated power section! then check,.

Thanks!

por favor necesito codificar control remoto modelo rcr412si1612p para el televisor rca f27242gy

First did you try all the codes. Some codes do not activate that function to work with the TV. Second what type of TV is it . If it is a combination tv - vcr - dvd these are the hardest to get to work with a universal remote . good luck

Hi,

I am assuming that your TV has Video IN source selection.

You need to use the Video/Audio OUTput of the VCR/CD and connect them to the Video/Audio INput of the TV. To do this you would have to use a 3-wire shielded cable with male RCA connectors color yellow, red & white.
RCA male connectors, yellow is usually video, red/white is audio left/right.

as shown OUT of VCR/CD to IN of TV.

Pnce done, play the VCR/CD with a good known CD or tape and set TV to Video mode.

Hope this be of help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

It looks like you will need to autoprogram the rest of the channels but do this you will need to have the TV connected to cable to store more than channel 3.
Good Luck.

most likely it shorted out your hori output transistor,with this bad set will not come on.

The input on your television is probably coaxial (for cable or an antenna) which means it needs an RF modulated signal. You can find one of those at your local department or electronics stores. Just look for an "RF Modulator" or "video-RF convertor." They're most commonly used to hook video games up to older televisions.

Now, if you've got an old VCR handy, that has an external input, it already has the RF modulator built-in.
