Our Sonwa flat screen just locked for no reason..and we had no idea how to un-lock it, so thanks for the help and thanks to the original person for asking the question in the first place.

Hi,

I have the same problem on my Sonwa Tv. Blue screen with Red lock on top left corner.

Problem is, there is no F or 'function' key on my remote.(as previously suggested to hold mute + f key) Any other suggestions?? Pls help!!

This isn't an answer, more of a HUGE thankyou!! I have had the same problem with my Sonwa TV (the red key lock a result of frustration one night when I was half asleep and couldn't find the power button to turn it off!), I haven't been able to get rid of the red key lock since and that was about 3 weeks ago! Now I can watch movies in bed again - yay!!!! Thanks to those who answered this problem...and thankyou to the person who lodged it! And thankyou to Google who found this site for me!! I am a very happy person now *smiles*
