I am unable to go to menu on my televsion.

To change the cable box control, you will need to do the following:

1. Locate the cable box remote: Most cable boxes come with a remote control that allows you to change the channels and adjust the volume.
2. Change the cable box settings: Use the remote to access the cable box's menu and change the settings as needed. This may include selecting a new channel, adjusting the volume, or changing the aspect ratio.
3. Pair the remote with the cable box: If you have a universal remote, you may need to pair it with your cable box in order to control it. This typically involves pressing a button on the remote that allows it to search for compatible devices, then selecting your cable box from the list of available devices.
4. Program the remote to control other devices: If you have a universal remote, you may also be able to program it to control other devices, such as your TV and sound system.

If you're having trouble changing the cable box control, you may need to consult the cable box manual or contact the cable company for further assistance.

This TV is set up to connect to an external amplifier which that controls the speakers. It has an analog audio output which means you need an RCA audio cable (2 RCA plugs (red and white) on each end. You can't directly connect a set of speakers. The audio output jacks at between the antenna in and the video inputs. Then you need to enter the menu and enter the Audio submenu. Go to the Speakers item. Turn the TV speakers to off and fixed audio out.(The amplifier will adjust the volume.) Use the Up/Down arrows to navigate through the menu options, press enter to enter a sub-menu and the volume up button to change a setting.

There is also a headphone jack which may be compatible with computer speakers. That has a 3.5 mm jack. To use headphones, set the Speakers Audio item to TV speakers Off and variable audio out. (The TV controls will adjust the volume.)


To use a Universal remote to set the audio or modify the channel list, you need one that matches the Menu function of the original remote. You may need to try multiple codes for Panasonic TVs to get the button to work. Some low-end universal remotes may not have the menu button; get a different remote or use the menu button on the front panel of the TV.

To set the channel list, press Menu and select Setup. Go to the Prog Chan option. Then set your Mode in the first option (Cable or Air). Then choose Auto Program to scan all channels or Manual Program to edit the channel list.

The manual for the TV is available at retrevo: http://www.retrevo.com/support/Panasonic-CT-27SL13-TVs-manual/id/275ag210/t/2/ . You will need to enter a code to access the manual. See page 5 of the manual for the input connections (page 7 of the PDF).

U can't do much on a universal tv remote.Only the basic mostly,like power on/off,channels up/down and volume up/down that about it.If u wanted more functions and controls and adjustments inside of the tv Menu for options like changing and adding functions.U must have the tv original remote to be able to do it.Try website like Remotes.com to buy the tv orignal remote.

Try website like Remotes.com to buy the original remote it ur best bet.Tries the manual control on the tv.Push the Menu button use the channel + - and the volume + - on the manual buttons to adjust colors,contrast,brightness.

Hello, Reset the remote control and use with the equipment . If it does adjust volume, change channel. then use have to get another one of different model

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.

Do you have a universal remote? If the batteries are taken out for a little period of time, the remote will loose the codes and they will have to be reset. You can find the codes by google universal remote codes.

If you have a factory remote that came with the television, than it may be faulty or the sensor on remote or tv may need to be cleaned.

you cannot enter into menu on most universal remote only on off switch,channel change and volume up and down thats the most you can get out of a universal remote.you will need the originald remote.

Use the buttons on front of your (tv) channel up & down allows you to scoll thur menu vol- vol+ allows you to adjust settings.Need anymore help let me know. ThankYou for using FixYa. Have a Nice Day.

After doing a little research, it looke like the front panel lock , can only be removed from the parental control menu using your remote. If your universal remote does not get you into the menu, see if you can borrow a friends rca remote long enough to get you into your menu & remove the fpa.
