Please Help with Samsung UN40EH5300F

Post by Davemiguel13 »

My Samsung TV UN40EH5300F out of nowhere through me this error code upon turning it on.

"Please go into service mode and setup below options. -Type, Local Set, Front Color Option"

It's annoying as hell and I have researched how to fix this issue.

What I have done so far:
I figured out how to get into the service menu (through pressing: mute,1,8,2 and power)
I was able to insert the type and front color option, but the "Local Set" is grayed out.

Need help with:
How am I able to set the local set?
It's a US TV.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

You have to unlock "extended" service menu to ungrey it. Check wiki for how-to.
I do NOT receive any PM. Please use forum.

Thanks for the quick reply!
I understand that I would need an Android phone to send the special codes to the TV to unlock the extended service menu or a Samsung Factory service remote control. I don't have neither. Is there any other way to unlock the extended service menu?
