MAGNAVOX - 27PT543 & 28DV SERIES SERVICE MODE




TO ENTER SERVICE MODE [BY REMOTE CONTROL]

  • Enter digits [0 > 6 > 2 > 5 > 9 > 6] in sequence by remote control; directly followed by 'Menu" button. [do not allow the display to time out between entries, while keying the sequence].
WITHOUT REMOTE CONTROL
  • Short jumper wires [9631] & [9641] on the family board, and apply AC power.  Remove the short after start up.  Do not set it shorted after start up.  It might ruin the memory IC.   
Entering the SDRAM by shorting these wires said above will over ride +8V protection.  So do it only for a short period of time.
