  • 3. Select the reset option: Look for ‘Reset’ and select it. You may be prompted to enter a PIN (the default is usually ‘0000’).
  • 4. Choose reset type: Decide between a soft reset, which restarts the system without deleting data, or a factory reset, which erases all custom settings and data.

Troubleshooting common issues: How to reset a Samsung TV

If you face issues while resetting your Samsung TV, try the following solutions:

  • 1. TV does not respond to reset command: If your TV is unresponsive or not displaying the reset option, try turning it off, unplugging it from the power source, and waiting for at least 30 seconds before plugging it back in. This power cycle can help the TV recognise remote commands.
  • 2. Forgotten PIN or security code: If you’re unable to reset because of a forgotten PIN, you can reset the PIN by pressing ‘Mute’, followed by ‘8’, ‘2’, ‘4’, and ‘Power’ on the remote. This should allow you to access the reset option and create a new PIN.
  • 3. Remote not working: If your remote isn’t functioning properly, replace the batteries or use a different remote. Alternatively, you can use the buttons located on the TV to access the settings and perform a reset.
  • 4. Network or app issues persist after reset: If a reset does not solve network connectivity or app malfunctions, ensure your TV is updated to the latest firmware version. Manually update the software from ‘Settings’ > ‘Support’ > ‘Software Update’.
