Well i Have a OLD matsui TV... I think the model is I408 R And the Brightness And Contrast Levels Are FKED! I need to fix them and i have lost the remote.... any ideas!?
Did a bit of research... you're pretty much screwed on this one. If you really want to fix it that bad, here's what I would suggest. Buy a universal remote. Not only would this solve your problem of not being able to fix your brightness/contrast, but it would also solve your problem of not having a remote. So, you took care of 2 problems with one solution w00t! You can find a universal remote for around $10. Just make sure it has a menu function so you can access all the contrast functions and such.
Negative... Each remote has it's own frequency/wavelength etc... Therefore, your other TV remote is preset for that specific television set. The way a universal remote works is it allows you to program the frequency, so you can use it with virtually ANY tv...
if you have another matsui in your house... that remote may work. but otherwise u are gonna need a uni remote like peanuts said
