I unplugged the tv to move it to another location in the room and when all was done, the remote control did not work the tv. I changed the batteries and it made no difference, I tried the remote right in front of the tv and nothing. I unplugged the tv for two hours and then plugged it in again and still nothing with the remote control. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND CAN IT BE FIXED?????
Televison & Video - Proscan - 42LA45H 42 in. LCD TV

Simple test to check if the problem is in the remote or the tv: take your phone and your remote to a dark room, activate its camera then point the remote at it and press a button and keep it pressed. If the remote is good then the screen will be lit up and the light will be pulsating. In that case the connector for the remote sensor inside the tv got dislodged when you have moved the tv - just open the back of the tv and reseat it.
And what do you want from me? I told you what is wrong with your tv and how to fix it. It's a very simple operation - if you can't be sure to do it properly then in no way attempt to fix it yourself - call a repairman to do it for you, it will cost you about $200. And please don't expect miracles.
If the remote is good, the cable to the sensor has been replaced and all was put back together correctly then the sensor board will have to be replaced, it's faulty.This is it
