the remote, one at a time.

Reset, this unlocks
parental controls and you can now re-enter a new password.
OR TRY THIS..
Press and hold Menu on the TV AND volume down on the remote for 3 seconds. 
Nothing will appear on the
screen, and the Parental Controls will unlock, and you can re-enter a new 
password with the LOCK PARENTAL
CONTROLS
