    Welcome to Agoraquest!  That doesn't appear to be the complete model number.  Typically, the procedure is as follows:

    1. TV must be in standby mode. (Power off).
    2. Press the following buttons on the Remote Commander within a
    second of each other: DISPLAY ==> Channel 5 ==> Volume + ==> TV POWER .

    If you are outside the USA, use the equivalent symbols on the remote.

    When the set is plugged in and turned off with the remote, it is in the standby mode.

    Sure!  Press the JUMP button on the remote until you get to the desired service menu, press 2 or 5 to change the category, 1 or 4 to change the adjustment item and 3 or 6 to change the data value.  Press MUTING then 0 to write into memory.  Turn the power off to exit the service mode.

    I was afraid of that.  Try skipping that step (press 1 or 4).
