For most models after 1994:
- Turn the TV on.
- Press & Hold down MENU and hit POWER and Volume +.
- Now you're in the service mode, looking at parameter 0.
- It will say: P00 V00
- Use the Volume + key to change the value (V number) to 76. This has to be set before you can do anything else; it's sort of a password.
- Once P00 is set to V76 you can use the Channel ▲/▼ buttons to select from the first 12 parameters.
- P13is another password – set to 77 to get higher parameters.
- Depending on the model, another one a couple of dozen parameters up will require a password of 78.
- This varies by model but you will know when you have found it because you won't be able to advance past it.
- The first parameter, P01, is probably the quickest and easiest to work.
- It is the Horizontal Frequency control. When you select it, the TV will lose horizontal sync.
- Turn it all the way down or all the way up with [►V+] or [◄V-] and then get out of set-up (if the TV hasn't shut itself off) then switch OFF the power button.
