Hi,
I just picked up my Panasonic CT-32HX41 tonight from Sears.
I hooked it up to the digital cable box (both composite and s-video). When I turned it onI noticed that what appears to be some kind of diagnostic status code appears at the top of the screen after about 2 seconds. The code is CHK00003 48454845 09. I can't get rid of it!!! Also the power button on the remote does not turn the TV off/on, instead it changes to what appears to be a service menu.
I suspect that the set was left in a diagnostic mode when it left the factory. Does anyone how to get it out of this mode?
On another note: I have noticed that the s-video input is clearly better than composite on the digital channels (HBO, Encore, etc), but the reverse true for the non-digital channels. This normal?
TIA,
Dave
