Please help - Type, Local Set, Front Color Option

[Shea2k]

Hi all, this is my first posting and its only after spending the best part of nearly 4 hours of searching online for some sort of clues that I've brought myself to ask.

First things first though, I am here in the UK and my model is a PS51E530A3W, manufactured in April 2012 (Hungary), I figured this 'E' support forum was the most fitting (E530A3W) but if I am entirely wrong, please feel free to either move it, or let me know where to repost and I will be glad to do so.

With that said, here is the situation:

At Christmas, I blew the HDMI card on the TV by hot swapping the HDMI cable from an XBox One while both the TV and XBox where powered on.
I replaced the HDMI card in the TV and now have full HDMI function again, but everytime the TV is turned on, I get the following error message:

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

The error goes away shortly after, or I can press Enter on the remote to dismiss, but though it best to put the issue to rest.

Having entered the service mode and looked at the available options, I can find no reference as to what they need to be.

At present, they are set to:

Type: 60EFHc
Local Set: None
Basic Model: PE530
SVC Model: 530
Tuner: SI_ATC2
Front Color: P-S-B-BK

As there are a lot of variables to these settings, and knowing enough to not simply shoot in the dark, I scoured the net searching for a lookup table or reference for my TV so as to input the settings it requires, but time and again have come away empty handed.

Can anyone assist at all?

Closest factory dump we have is that one: https://forum.samygo.tv/viewtopic.php?f ... =20#p86109
You can probably catch some info inside it. Exact values can't be guessed unless somebody with same model gives them. However we know by experience that several values can fit a specific model.

Did you set values you're reporting yourself? If no, I think setting only local set to EU_UK should be enough to stop popup.

If TV color/picture/menu look alright at some point, don't touch anything anymore

Thanks for the info Zoelechat. I had fitted the card and had the issue immediately. Under instruction from a local TV repair man, I ran the appropriate firmware update and whilst it appeared to be successful, the issue still remains with this popup.

I cycled through the settings under Option to see if anything there related to my TV or the UK etc, but nothing jumps out at me as being right.
I'll trawl through the factory dump you've kindly linked me to, and see if anything in there may be appropriate.

Its not the end of the world if I can't correct this error. In all other ways, the TV is perfect, Its just bugging me a bit.

Thanks again.

Is the damaged HDMI board still operational ie does the unit power up? If so re install it and copy the settings from there.

Thanks for the idea! I will check to see if I do still have the old HDMI card - There was a lot going on at the time with Christmas, and I can't bet my life on having the old card at this point. Here's hoping I do! Thanks again.
