Please Help

hi,

Your best bet is to get an original replacement remote. Use the remote to disable child lock. Also this Philips is actually an LG product so you may find an LG remote is cheaper than any other brand. Might be worth keeping an eye on ebay to see if anyone sells a bare remote control. Have you contacted Philips?


best regards,

i found out on line in the owners manual that if u still have a remote control that came with the tv, u press the tv/av button and enter button at the same time to disable the child lock. New problem: u can't do it with a universal remote, even if its programmed to a magnavox tv. I called the 800 # to buy a remote control and the rep told me that it cost $50, not including the shipping and handling. so my husband put the tv in the car, brought an extension cord and took it to a local tv repairman who was kind enough to use his remote to remove the child lock for us. finally someone who is helpful for free. thanks to all the nice people out there!

Use this web link http://www.m4c.magnavox.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?scy=US&slg=AEN&cat=TV_CONVENTIONAL_CA&sct=TV_LARGE_25_29_SU&grp=TV_GR&session=20090602164521_68.190.209.25&ctn=27MS343S&mid=Link_UserManuals&hlt=Link_UserManuals to go to the Magnavox website and view a copy of the owners manual on pages 23 & 24. It will explains how to change the setting of the lock with the front panel controls. If this does not work for you you can call Magnavox customer support at this telephone number 1-800-705-200. Give them the model number of you television and tell them the problem you are having with the child lock.Locking you out of the television operation.I hope this information helps you with your problem.

You need to buy a remote for that TV. They're available online for around $39. This site has them in stock, but you can shop around to be sure its a good price. When you receive it, turn on your TV and press menu on the remote and turn off child lock. Click the Remote here:

any magnavox controler will work just put in some good batteries . lots retail wholesale stores like walmart carries magnavox tv remotes but make sure its a magnavox.
