Kolins TV troubleshooting..?

hi.. i would like to seek for help about my tv problem.. well, i used a universal remote on our kolins (its the brand name, i heard its under LG electronics) tv, then after i set it up (entering the code in to the remote so it can control the tv), our tv got jammed.. the picture isnt clear as it used to be %26amp; it got this unusual black border around the screen.. i tried fixing it through the tv set-up but i cant reverse what happened.. pls someone help me wih this.. thanks..





(PS: this problem has nothing to do with the satellite, antenna, cable or wirings.. i never had a problem like this until i used the universal control over the tv.. its more like that the remote accidentally damaged a chip or whatever controls the tv's picture output..





another note: the tv's picture tube is perfectly fine since our tv was just 2 years old.. i never had the picture/screen problems until i used the remote..)

Kolins TV troubleshooting..?
Hmm, Kolins TV doesn't even come up in American Google....I'm surprised it doesn't.


Is Kolins a UK brand and if so, is it a Well Known brand like Sony or LG or RCA or Toshiba?





Or is it more like ILO and Visio - cheap and new name TV sets?





I really recommend googling Kolins TV remotes and getting the original remote control to resolve your settings....





Picture isn't clear...I'll bet you are now looking at the OLD TV signal instead of the Digital TV signal....





Border around the picture...I'll bet it's the analog station instead of the Digital station...but it could be your aspect ratio setting is 4:3 instead of 16:9 wide screen.....
Reply:TV Guy is correct in this ! A Remote control can not damage a TV, now it may well mess things up temporarily but should be ok after reset , If you can get to the menu manually from controls on TV go to menu and select " Default Settings " and go from there !!

Unplug the TV from the wall and plug it back and it should work OK.
