If you are looking to reset your Hisense TV but find that the remote isn’t working or lost? You will find this guide useful if you are in such scenarios. While there are several ways to operate a Hisense TV without a remote, the simplest method is to perform a hard reset using the physical Reset button on the TV’s panel, which is located on the back.
Take a look at which Hisense TV models include a Reset button and how to reset your TV if it doesn’t have the button.
Which Hisense TV Models Have a Reset Button?
The Reset button is available only on Hisense Roku TVs. It is a pinhole button that appears as a tiny black dot on the side of the back panel. This button is particularly useful if your Hisense TV keeps turning off and you can’t access the settings to reset it.
Steps to Reset Hisense TV Using The Reset Button
1. Power on your Hisense Roku TV.
2. Find the Reset button on the Hisense TV panel.
3. Use a paperclip or SIM ejector tool to press and hold the Reset button.
4. Continue holding the button until the TV screen turns off and then displays the Hisense logo.
Your Hisense Smart TV reset has now been successfully done without needing to access the TV settings.
Note: Some older Hisense TVs running on RokuOS do not have a Reset button. In that case, you can perform a factory reset by pressing the Volume and Input buttons simultaneously.
Why There Is No Reset Button On My Hisense Smart TV?
Hisense has not included a physical Reset button on many of its TV models. The reason for this is still unclear, but it is a trend among many TV manufacturers today. The Hisense Smart TV models that do not have a Reset button include:
- Hisense Android TV
- Hisense Google TV
- Hisense VIDAA TV and
- Hisense XCLASS TV
How To Reset a Hisense TV Without a Reset Button
You can use remote apps or external devices like a mouse or keyboard to navigate to the TV settings and perform a soft reset without a remote controller on those models that don’t have a reset button.
If your Hisense TV displays a black screen and you cannot access the settings, try manually power cycling the Smart TV by unplugging and replugging the power cable. This method will resolve the black screen issue. Once the home screen appears after rebooting, head to Settings and reset the TV.
If the issue persists even after a hard reset, contact the Hisense support team for further assistance.
