Westinghouse is an electric company that has been in operation for over a hundred years. The company has also made television sets for a long time.

When you first get your Westinghouse Television, they may seem slightly intimidating but you will soon get used to it. It is very straightforward and you should know how to fix it quickly.

The TVs have a password that you use the remote control to submit. Therefore, if you forgot your Westinghouse TV password or your remote control seems to not be responding, you need to reset your TV.

If you are having any trouble with your Westinghouse TV, all you need to do is adjust the settings and it should return to working order in a short while.

Resetting the TV is also a good idea if you have any TV features that are not working properly. This is especially if you do not know how to fix it through other channels.

To reset your Westinghouse Television set, use the following steps:

1. Pick up the remote that came with your Westinghouse TV

2. Press the 'Menu' button and the TV screen will showcase the menu options labeled 'Video,' 'Display,' TV,' 'Audio,' Power' and 'Settings'

3. Scroll down the list of options and select 'Settings'

4. Several options will appear after you do so including 'Language,' 'OSD Timeout,' 'Transparency,' 'Timezone,' 'Quick Install Matrix,' 'System Info' and 'Factory Reset'

5. Choose 'Factory Reset' from the list. The factory reset 'resets all OSD menu settings' of the high-definition TV back to the factory defaults.

Some Westinghouse televisions use 'Reset All' instead of 'Factory Reset.' Sometimes you may be required to submit the TV code in order to reset a Westinghouse TV, it is clearly displayed on the TV, if it should be so required.

Another way you can use to reset your Westinghouse TV is through the following process:

1. Turn the TV set Off

2. Press and Hold the VOL - + Input buttons located on the right side of the TV set

3. While simultaneously holding these buttons, press the POWER button

4. If you do this in the proper fashion, the Westinghouse Logo on the front of the television set will start to blink.

5. Pick up the Remote Control and press the RETURN key. You will have placed the TV set in Service Mode.

6. To Leave Service Mode, bring up the Standard OSD Menu.

7. Go to 'General Setting' select 'Factory Reset'. This should reset your settings in the OSD, but keep any changes you made to the Service Menu.
