What Else Can I Do?
If you’ve been through the Troubleshooting section and nothing has fixed your problem, try rebooting
your TV. Note that after a reboot, you may need to run your TV through the setup process again. To do
a reboot, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet or power strip. Keep your TV unplugged for about
5 minutes. Then plug in the TV and turn it on. See if the problem is fixed. If the problem remains, then
