perhaps you have to enter service menu again and switch it off?
I don`t know anything about fac mode, also the tv is quite old...

I suggest you to post the high resolution photos of mainboard, might we can help you (or not...). Maybe there i presents some kind of "magic button" to reset eeprom, who knows...
In any case, tell us about result.

On the last picture ic1012 is close to cpu, i would start from this one. But better write down the names of all 8-pins chips, because here is not possible to view details on photos...
ic3006
ic3008
What about ic2050-2052 - are here just pins or maybe also chips on the other side of m/b?
