Being a Hisense TV user, I faced a reboot loop problem a month ago. While searching for its solution, I found there are some common issues Hisense television users are facing like:

TV restarting automatically
Audio without picture
Brightness problems or screen goes black
TV not responding to remote properly

For all the above mentioned issues, one quick fix is to reset your Hisense smart TV. Restoring TV to default settings brings the device to its original factory state, and all the problems are fixed.

How To Factory Reset Hisense TV

The method to perform a factory reset on Hisense smart, android, and Roku TV is different. We are going to cover each of them in detail, let’s get straight into it:

Switch ON your Hisense Smart TV.
Now, press the “MENU” button on your Hisense Smart TV remote.
From the drop-down menu, select the “SUPPORT” and press the “OK or ENTER” button.

Note: Some Hisense TV models have the “ENTER” button while others have “OK” or “SELECT” button. So, whichever your TV remote has, it’ll do the same job.

After entering the “SUPPORT” menu, choose the “SELF DIAGNOSIS” option.
Another menu will appear on your screen. Here you need to select the “RESET” option.
You will be asked to enter the security pin. (if you don’t have a pin set on your Hisense TV, enter 0000 as the default reset code).
Lastly, wait for a couple of minutes to complete the process. Your TV is restored to its default settings and set it up as per your requirements.

A factory reset will remove all the downloaded information, settings, and Wi-Fi passwords will be lost. So, it is recommended to only go for a factory reset once you have tried the soft reset.

If your TV is not responding to the remote control or has a black or blue screen of death, you must check how to reset Hisense TV without a remote.

Resetting Hisense Android TV

The first method will not work if you have Hisense Android TV, for that you need to follow this method:

Press the “UPWARD” arrow key on the remote control to open the control panel. Scroll right, select Settings, and press the “OK” button.

Now, from the drop-down menu, select the “Device Preferences” option.

Note: In some Hisense Android TVs, the Device Preferences option is not present, so if that’s the case, select the “Storage and Reset” option.

From the next menu, scroll all the way down until you see the “RESET” option, select it, and press “OK”.

A warning message will appear on your screen “This will erase all data from your device’s internal storage.” You need to again select “RESET” and press the OK button.

Next, select the “Erase Everything” option.

If you have set a pin code on your device, it will ask you to enter the code.

With this, your Hisense TV will restore to its default settings.

NOTE: It will take anywhere between 5 to 10 minutes to complete, depending upon the data stored on TV.
