read the post below this
sorry about the cut and paste but.....
Aha!

ZENITH:

I think this might work on Goldstar TVs as well, since both Zenith
and
Goldstar are the same company, LG Electronics.

Hold the MENU button. The menu will come up and then after a few
seconds will go away. Now let go of the MENU button and enter

9 8 7 6 Enter

You will get a service menu that varies widely depending on model,
so
I won't include a walkthrough here. The ones I tried were fairly
self-explanatory.


Problem solved. Went into the service menu, poked around some and
changed a setting named "C. Type" to 3 (likely anything from 2-5 would
work - changing from 0 to 1 gave me stereo sound, then I got playing -
set it to 5, etc). I also enabled the stereo/SAP (a default choice, I
think, for the audio) and the audio mode setup option (was previously
missing from the menu). While at it, I adjusted the picture size so
things aren't running off the bottom, etc. Looks like a former owner
went in there and screwed it up.

I'd be interested in a more thorough accounting of the service menu
options. There are things in there like "3.58 T", "WhComp" (white
compensation?), "6 Keys", "Scroll" and "5 Jacks" (which I couldn't seem
to set) that I'm curious about.

After changing the options in the service menu, I had to rescan the
channels before I could power the TV off.

I can't select 0 (or 1 or 2) to tune to the video input, but using the
channel up/dn button lets me come round to it - makes me happy!

Thanks for replying to my original request folks - I appreciate the
helpful thoughts.
