I did not have the remote that came with the TV so I programmed my Dish Network remote to the TV. After that I went to the V Chip screen by using the front panel option. Than with Dish Network remote that I programmed the TV for I entered the numerical code (0000). After all of this I was able to get into the V Chip menu. From there I controlled the options by using the TV's front panel controls. At this point I was able to disable the v chip.
