TV: Miscellaneous

On this page you will find information not directly related to the other TV pages. This information typically includes information on some other TV models as contributed by other people or by other means.

If you have a contribution yourself then you are encouraged to send it in, so others can benefit from your information and/or experience.
Confirmation of the (in)correctness of the information presented here would be appreciated, since some information is rather inconclusive in that respect.

Notes:

  • If in service mode and no 'store' item is available, using the standby function on the TV itself will store the settings usually.
  • Not all of this information has been confirmed (except maybe the contribution items). Please take care when using this information. If you can report a success or failure (or have any other information in that respect), please let me know.
  • It is not always clear if the methods presented here are used to enter service mode or another mode.
  • More methods can exist for particular models/types, usually depending on the software.
  • Take care when using the 'short circuit' method. The connections presented could be incorrect! Also, typically some safety features of the TV are switched off!
  • Almost all chassis types support the method of shorting service pins.
  • Almost all chassis types support the special remote control codes, see 'TV: Service mode remote control codes'.

You might have a look at these sites:
   http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/erichard with a lot of information on viewer TV/VCR adjustments.
   http://www.tehnicaavtv.com/tvservice.htm has service mode information on several TV's.

Contribution by John Crutz
  • Short the service pins inside the TV to get into service mode.
  • When removing the short circuit of the service pins, make sure you remove it completely. Don't just cut the link, since it might still be identified as a short, due to the sensitive nature of the input.
  • To get out of service mode use the TV button on the remote or the TV button on the TV itself.

  • No information

A10E
(at least with software A10et1-1.6, A10ep1-1.6, A10EP1-2.0 )
  • This model also supports the 062596 sequence followed by [i+]/[OSD].
  • Service default mode is entered using the 062596 sequence, followed by the - button on the TV set itself.
  • Also see TV: Service mode matchline (generic) (settings PW6516) which has the A10EP1-2.0 software version.
  • The remote control sequence (GFL), see TV: Service mode remote control codes section, should also work.
  • Alternatively you can short-circuit pins 9261 and 9262 inside the set and then powering it up.

MD1.2 Service mode
Contribution by Denis Cornet
  • The following reply was received concerning the Service mode TV set Philips 28PW6322/01 Chasssis MD1.2E AA:
    "... in the meantime I've found some info over the service mode of this TV set.
    There is a small Service jumper to short on the small signal PCB.
    When the TV is in this first level service mode, you can go in the second level service mode by pressing both MENU and - keys on top of the TV at the same time.
    There you can read much parameters and proceed with most of the adjustments.
    In fact this method let you use an ordinary Remote control but you also need to open the back cover.
    With the special service remote control, a special code is sent to enter the service mode. It is also possible to record this remote control code in a learning remote control."
