Ok, first of all, let me say that this is absolutely real-Not fake.
My TV (40" Sony Bravia HDTV) has been turning itself to a channel (channel 8 specifically). It's acting as if someone is continually pressing "8" on the TV remote. So, I thought maybe my remote was faulty or low on batteries, so I replaced them--that didn't work.
I also tried removing batteries from all of my remotes but it still happens. It happens every time I turn on the tv--no matter what input I try to turn it to (Tv/Video/component..etc). I've had this TV for quite a while (maybe 16 months), so I don't think there's any kind of weird interference going on, but, I'm not sure.
Any suggestions on what I can do?
