Psst. Want to access your TV's service mode?

I'm sorry, can't find anything about your specific model, but you can try:

Although your model is not listed, the way to access to the service menu should be similar (it happened to me too, nothing about my specific model)

As you can see, using the service menu can be quite scary, specially when it seems that the first option listed in a Philips TV service menu is CLEAR?

I will add my warning to all the warnings you'll find in these links: enter at your own risk and write down the values of all the parameters.

I get a colored stripe on 16:9 mode on my TV, most cheaper TVs with the option I've seen do this - you're telling me I can actually get rid of it?
