Press the "Menu" button on the front of your Sharp TV. This will allow you to access the menu for your television without a remote. When the menu appears on screen, use the "Channel" buttons to move up and down, the "Volume" buttons to move left and right and the "Input" buttons to select items. https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-to-program-a-sharp-tv-without-a-remote
You may need a different remote. Is this a universal remote? Some of them have these common problems. Mine, for instance, doesn't use the OK button at all; instead, the Menu button counts as the OK button.
Try navigating the menu with the TV's volume / channel buttons (the ones on the TV itself, not on the remote). This usually works. Try that until you get a different remote.
I would suggest you try to find a universal remote that has an "input" or "source" button and program that one to your tv. By pressing the "source" or "input" button, it will change the input to the tv.
I hope this helps!

if the tv width is ok try entering to service menu (do not use remote control) as follow: 1) turn the set on. 2) press the menu button and hold it down while pressing the power button. 3) while holding down the menu button release the power button and press the volume + button. 4) The screen will display a one line menu, on the left the parameter P00, and on the right the value of the parameter V00 5) release buttons. 6) using the volume + button change the right parameter until 76 7) using the channel down button change the left parameter until 06 (vertical size) 8) whith the volume + or volume - adjust the screen size. 9) when your tv is OK back to parameter 00 using the channel up button. 10) press menu button. and trouble solved.
If you are unable to access the TV menu using the buttons on the TV itself it is possible you can with the TV2 remote if it still controls the volume etc. for this TV. If it doe not you will need to find a code for your set in the manual for the receiver or you can go to the following link to find that info as well.http://tech.dishnetwork.com/departmental_content/TechPortal/content/tech/receiver/625.shtml Assuming you have control of the volume still press the small TV button on the top left of the remote. Now press the menu button and you may be able to access the TV's menu. If so you need to run a channel scan/auto program the TV. You may need to use the buttons on the TV still to maneuver through the menu. If you are still unable to access the menu you may need to purchase a universal to access the menu.
sounds like it need some cleaning , or main board might be disaligned , open it and take a look at the plastic buttons that touches the main board switches , good luck , AJ
this is the same type of problem happening with other rca models and I know it is the EPROM CHIP but why this is failing is either because of design flaw , dirty enviroment that they were made in , to much voltage or current to the chip or too much of a draw from the chip causing it to fail . Or even a random frequency from the IR sensor or its circut I'm still investigating and testing.
leave the tv unplugged for at least 3 weeks durring this time resolder any solder that don't look good , I did this and it lasted for about 6 months(always plugged in to the wall) before it started doing it again. model # 27v412t
