Visio VX37L Service Menu Request

[Anonymous]

I’m trying to find the service menu on a Visio VX37L panel.

So far I have tried the following with no success;

Press and hold the button on the remote for 3 seconds then release it.
Press the {1} {2} {3} buttons on the remote.
The Service Menu will be displayed.
Press the button to exit the Service Menu.

Turn The TV off.
Press and hold the {CH +} & {CH -} buttons on the TV.
Then press and release the {POWER} button on the TV.
Release the {CH +} & {CH -} buttons.
Now press the {MENU} button on the remote.
You should get your regular menu up, but with a “F” in the bottom right corner of the menu (This is for factory).
Press and hold the {MENU} button for few seconds.
The Service Menu will be displayed.

Turn The TV off.
Press and hold the {CH +} & {CH -} buttons on the TV.
Then press and hold the {POWER} button on the TV.
Keep all three buttons pressed for few secs.
Now press the {MENU} button on the remote.
You should get your regular menu up, but with a “F” in the bottom right corner of the menu (This if for factory).
Press and hold the {MENU} button for few seconds.
The Service Menu will be displayed.

…Please advise, thanks.

So, I went to do this set without the service codes. All went pretty well except after initially have a very interested client primed to attend the calibration so that I could explain what I was doing. I ended up with a hung over client that went to take a nap during the calibration no matter how hard I tried to explain that they would have a very hard time understanding the service if they didn’t see me/it in process.

Sure enough, the client woke up and came out to see what to them was a dramatically darker (bad) looking image. I suppose that this could have been worse if perhaps I had not been there still. But, I was and I was able to pull up the reports and explain everything reasonably well.

The clients final comment to me was something along the lines of; I’m sorry for yelling and guess I should have believed you when you said that I needed to be educated on the process. So my take away on this is, knowing that this won’t be the last time that a client ducks me, is to be prepared to explain what you’ve done after the fact without the tools and everything still fired up and running. Oh yea, and have a THX disc as the client was really looking forward to watching an episode Desperate House Wives on Comcast.

Happy Calibrating!
