There is a small hole beside the sleep timer button on the TV. Found inside the hole is a push switch that enables and disables the setup, video, and audio buttons on the remote. The sleep timer button on the TV now becomes the setup button. After you are done setting up the TV, pressing the switch inside the hole puts the TV back into "motel mode".

Make it a sentence or paragraph. We don't need all 11 pages, just the short and sweet version. What is the D secret. Some of us can't get to the database. I file all fixes right here in my email program to help others or myself if the question comes up again. We want answers too, that is why most of us read all these emails. Not just for the questions. I thought that was the benefit of all of us. Lets post fixes everyday. If we all just put one unique fix a week on here, we would have hundreds a week and we would never have to worry about repairs again.
