I need to reset this tv to factory settings. However, I don't have a remote. I've found it in the menu and can get to it just fine. To do the reset, I need only to select the "OK" button on the screen menu. It tells me that I need to push the "OK" button on the remote - which I don't have! None of the buttons on the side will work. I've tried 'em all. How can I select this option without a remote? Help!

G'Day!
Unfortunately, what you're describing is a repair
issue. You won't be able to address the problem with troubleshooting.
There is a part inside the TV that needs to be replaced. If you're
under warranty, this will cost you nothing. If you're not under
warranty the cost will likely be a minimum of $200 parts and labor.
However, be warned that the cost could be considerably higher.

The sp42a is a plasma tv not an lcd. check the psb voltages first then move onto the ymain and buffers.

LCD's use a colorful crystal see through display which only visible when light is shining through it. if you have sound and no picture it's always a faulty PSU. Very easy to change out actually.
