If your TV is stuck in password mode, it may be due to a forgotten password or an issue with the TV's settings. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:
  1. Check the manual: Consult the user manual that came with your TV to see if there are any instructions on how to reset the password or troubleshoot issues with the password mode.
  2. Try the default password: Many TV manufacturers use a default password for their devices. Check the manual or do a quick online search to see if the default password for your specific TV model is available.
  3. Factory reset: If the previous steps do not work, try performing a factory reset on your TV. This will erase all of the settings on your TV, including the password. Be aware that this will also erase all of your saved channels and settings, so you will need to set them up again afterwards.
  4. Contact the manufacturer: If none of the above steps work, contact the manufacturer of your TV for assistance. They may be able to provide you with further troubleshooting steps or reset the password for you.
  5. If the TV is under warranty, you can also contact your TV supplier and they will help you to resolve the issue or replace it with a new one.

Please note that the steps may vary depending on the TV brand and model you have.
