Panasonic CTL1400-LH13 CHASSIS LCSD TV how to enter the service mode, service adjustments in details


Self-check function
When phenomena like "the power fails from time to time" or "the video/audio fails from time to time" can not be confirmed at the time of servicing, the self-check function can be used to confirm the occurrence and to limit the scope for the defective circuits. When "the power fails from time to time", display on the screen can be used to confirm the occurrence and to limit the scope for the defective circuits.
Any programmed channels, channels caption data and some other user defined settings will be erased and return to factory setting.
Access
Produce TV reception screen and, while pressing [VOLUME-] button on the main unit, press [SLEEP] button on the remote controller unit simultaneously.
Exit
When one of the buttons for channel selection etc. is pressed, the display returns to the normal screen.
