If your Beston TV is frozen, locked behind a forgotten PIN, or misbehaving after a bad setting, a factory reset puts everything back to normal. You have two paths: a hidden service menu with several entry codes, or a no-remote panel-button reset for when the remote is lost. This guide covers both — plus key lock, hotel mode, and parental control fixes.

Work through the methods in order — most Beston sets open on the first code, and the lock fixes further down often make a full reset unnecessary.
Why Reset Your Beston TV?
A factory reset restores every setting to its factory default and erases all personal data — channels, picture and sound settings, WiFi passwords, and lock PINs. It is the fastest fix for:
- Forgotten parental PIN — the only reliable way to clear it.
- Key lock blocking the panel buttons.
- Hotel mode restrictions on channels, volume, and inputs.
- Stuck input source that refuses to switch.
- Software glitches — frozen menus, unresponsive commands.
A reset fixes software problems — hardware faults like a dead backlight or a cracked panel need a technician.
What the Beston Service Menu Can Do
- Factory reset — restore all default settings.
- Key lock on/off — unlock frozen panel buttons.
- Hotel mode — enable or remove hospitality restrictions.
- Parental control / child lock — clear or configure locks.
- Picture and sound calibration — fine-tune quality at the factory level.
You need the original Beston remote to enter the service menu codes below.
Warning: Use the Service Menu Carefully
The service menu exposes factory-level settings that can permanently damage the picture if changed wrongly. Touch only the reset and lock options in this guide, and photograph every original value before changing anything. If you have never opened one before, read what the TV service menu is first.
Method 1: Open the Beston Service Menu (7 Codes)
Try them in order until the factory menu appears — Beston is one brand in the full list of hidden service menu codes for all TV brands:
| Method | Button Sequence |
| 1 | Press MENU, then 1-1-4-7 |
| 2 | Press DISPLAY, then 1-1-4-7 |
| 3 | Press INPUT, then 1-1-4-7 |
| 4 | Press MENU, then 2-0-0-8 |
| 5 | Press MENU, then 1-9-4-7 |
| 6 | Press MENU, then 0-0-0-0 |
| 7 | Press MENU, then 1-2-3-4 |
How to Navigate the Service Menu
Up / Down move between options, Left / Right change a value, and Exit / Menu saves and leaves the menu.
Method 2: Factory Reset From the Service Menu
- Open the service menu using one of the 7 codes above — the same service-menu route is step one in our all TV factory reset codes and methods guide for other brands.
- Find Factory Reset, Reset, or Shipping Init.
- Highlight it and press the Right arrow to execute.
- Wait up to a minute while the reset runs — the TV restarts on its own.
- Complete the first-time setup when the wizard appears.
Method 3: Reset Without a Remote (Panel Buttons)
No remote? The panel buttons can trigger a reset:
- Turn the TV off.
- Press and hold the Power and Input buttons on the TV panel together.
- While holding both, switch the TV's power on.
- Keep holding until the Reset/Restart option appears on screen.
- Wait about a minute for the reset to finish, then complete the initial setup.
If your model has no Input button, try Power + Volume Down — some Beston chassis map the forced reset to that combination.
Fixing Key Lock, Hotel Mode, and Parental Controls
Many lock problems can be fixed directly in the service menu — no full reset needed:
Key Lock
Try the service menu first: find Key Lock and set it to Off — the panel buttons work again immediately. A factory reset clears it as well.
Hotel Mode
Find Hotel Mode (sometimes under Options) and set it to Off. This removes channel, volume, and input restrictions without wiping your other settings.
Parental Control / Child Lock
Find Parental Control, Child Lock, or Lock in the service menu and set it to Off. If a PIN is requested, try 0000 or 1234 — a full factory reset clears it as a last resort.
Before You Reset: Important Notes
- A reset erases everything — settings, channels, passwords. Photograph your picture and sound values first.
- Check the service menu first — hotel mode, key lock, and parental controls often don't need a full reset.
- Never interrupt the reset — cutting power mid-reset can corrupt the firmware.
After the Reset: Beston Setup Checklist
- Choose your OSD language on the setup screen.
- Run a full channel scan (Menu → Channel → Auto Search).
- Picture and sound: reapply the values you noted before resetting.
- Input sources: if an HDMI or AV input is missing afterward, re-enable it in the service menu's Source Settings.
- Image flipped? Fix an inverted picture with the panel mirror setting (values 0–3).
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Beston service menu code works?
MENU then 1-1-4-7 works on most models — try the rest in order if it doesn't open.
Will a reset remove the parental control PIN?
Yes — the factory reset clears the PIN and all settings. For a PIN-only fix, try the service menu's Parental Control option first.
Can I damage the TV in the service menu?
Yes. Changing panel type, voltage, or tuner values can permanently break the picture. Only use the reset and lock options in this guide, and note original values first.
The no-remote method doesn't work on my Beston TV. What now?
Try the 7 service-menu codes with the original remote, or the Power + Volume Down panel combination.
How long does a Beston factory reset take?
The reset runs in under a minute with an automatic restart. Full setup afterward — language, channel scan, picture tweaks — takes another 10 to 15 minutes.
My Beston TV is stuck on the logo after a reset. What should I do?
Unplug the TV for 30–60 minutes and retry the reset. If it still won't pass the logo, reload the firmware via USB — see our firmware loading guide. If that fails, the main board needs professional repair.
That is a Beston factory reset covered from every angle: try the service menu codes first, use the panel buttons when the remote is lost, and check the lock settings before you wipe anything. Once the setup checklist is done, your channels, inputs and picture are back as they should be. If the set on your bench is a different budget brand, the Konka TV service menu guide follows the same careful, try-in-order approach.
