Hello,

I'm wondering is someone can help with this issue. I was unfortunately
going through the service menu of my Samsung TX-R2435 (to see if I
could find any hint of a "wide" mode, which is advertised everywhere
for this TV, which I bought used) when I hit an option that I shouldn't
have touched. Actually I didn't think it was a command but an access to
a sub-menu. Anyway, it was called "bus stop" and what it did is
actually deactivate all controls in the TV (as well as the service menu
itself). I had to unplug it to get it to turn off. Now, when I try to
turn it on again, the light goes green as normal but then turns off
after one second and the TV remains blank (it does "charge up"). I have
tried leaving it unplugged for 4 hours but it didn't reset anything
apparently. It's as if it is locked into a perpetual state of going on
stand-by.

Does anybody have any idea on what is happening and how to fix it.

Thanks!

The service manual for the KS7A chassis is he

Unfortunately it's not very helpful.

In the absence of a secret reset key sequence, I'd be attempting to
reprogram the EEPROM chip (24C16) by hand using the settings in the
manual, but then I have an EEPROM programmer.
