Default Philips/Magnavox TV Question

All,
I have a 25" tv model number 25TS56 C121. I actually have two of these, one
I got secondhand that I don't have a remote control for. Here's the
problem: On the secondhand unit, I cannot get the TV to go to "Aux" input
mode, which would let me use the compsite inputs on the back (RCA inputs).
Philips cust support said I'd have to buy the remote which "may" have an
input button. The one I have owned since new does not have an input button
on the remote. I just go to channel 2 and then go "down" a channel. This
remote will control either TV, so I don't think buying a $50 remote from
philips will help. (Lord knows I have about 4 of those universal remotes
floating around, anyhow!) Philips said holding volume up and down while
powering up the set would do a factory reset, but it doesn't. I've also
done an auto channel find while sending a source to the RCA inputs, nogo.
Do any of you guys know how to do a factory reset on the thing? I know I
should just go buy a 20 dollar VCR, but I'm a bit stubborn.

Thanks,

Daremo
