    Element ELDFT406 " upside down picture"

    Hello good folks, today I received EEPROM-ELDFT406-28H1403A V.1 from my favorite place, Shop Jimmy. The reason I purchased the item was because I had an issue where about ten seconds after you switch inputs the set would shut off. You were able to turn it back on if you want, but if you were in any input except tv it would shut back off. Using a $10 antenna on the set, I was able the run the set for 24 hours without it shutting off until I switched the input to HDMI.

    Ok, I installed the EEPROM and turned it on and my display was 180 out. I was curious if it would shut off if I switched inputs. I connected the cheap antenna and two DVD players and a chrome cast on the HDMI inputs. I just ran it for 4 hours cycling inputs and it never shut off.

    Now then, I'm aware of a service function that allows you to rotate the screen for diagnostics on my Panasonics, but I know next to nothing about this set and to make things worse, I don't have the original remote. I'm a fish out of the water and I have every reason to believe that the part is good and there is a way to correct my problem.

    Thank you all for your time.

    Hi have you looked here for service codes https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=24809
    It sounds like it is a setting if that does not help try to find if you can program a universal remote for a service code for your TV
    I know LG TVs have 180 flip function for those that want to install the TV upside down

        I emailed shop jimmy again so I'm still waiting. I have a lg remote from another tv and it turns on the Element and I got into service mode but when I get there I can't go up or down in the menu. I have to use the volume button to control the up or down function when selecting inputs. So I try using the volume buttons on the remote while in service to go up or down and takes me out of service mode and adjusts the volume. I'm still searching for the correct remote or a good universal
