How can I contact magnavox? My son put a password in the TV and he forgot what it was.?

Answer 1

Philips/Magnavox sets use a four digit code to control the v-chip. The override code for Philip sets is 0711, although it may say "Incorrect code" the first time to trick you. If "Incorrect code" is displayed, simply enter 0711 again. To use it hit the MENU key to get to the menus. Go up or down until you reach AUTOLOCK or SMARTLOCK, depending on the model, and push the "right arrow" key on the remote. Enter the override code, and enter it a second time if it says it is incorrect.

Once in the AUTOLOCK or SMARTLOCK menu, go to BLOCK, and push the "right arrow" key. Go to BLOCKING OPTIONS and press the "right arrow" key. Go to MASTER DISABLE and press the "right arrow" key so that it says "MASTER DISABLE ON". The v-chip is now reset.

Hope this does the trick for ya!

Answer 2

Magnavox Contact Number

Answer 3

Call 1-800-555-1212 and see if magnavox has a 800 number listed for consumer support or customer service. Call and let them know what's going on. Plan on being on hold forever. Good luck! Make sure its the TV itself, not the satellite or service provider who provides your TV service first. If its the service provider, call them instead of magnavox.

Answer 4

If your son put the password on the TV, Magnavox will NOT have it, unless your son gave it to them when he put it on the tv.

Answer 5

open the TV and you should see a battery, disconnect the battery, once you do so the memory of the password will be erased.

Answer 6

there should be a reset button that will reset all of those settings... I would check the user guide. If you don't have it, I'm sure you can find one on http://www.magnavox.com

Good luck. Gotta love kids.

Answer 7

Look for your owners manual for that information or do an internet search.Good Luck..........
