I have a Sharp color TV model 13K m100 but no remote. "universal remotes" won't get me into the menu. As I want to reprogram the channels I get going up and down and to change it from cable to off air. Are there any internal jumpers I can jump to access the menu? Or is there a way to fake the proper remote say by using the RS232 port on my PC to drive an IR LED and a program that causes it to produce the correct on/off sequence of pulses to make the TV think it's seeing the proper remote (looked all over the web but didn't find this)? Sure I can buy the proper remote on ebay, but for $60?...

Sure. How will you know how to do this?
If you want to play McGuyver that's up to you but, if you'll go to Walwart and pick up the One for All 4 in one remote, use code 0093, I'll gurantee it'll work or you have a bad remote sensor or didn't program it right. I use one in my shop to check repaired units and I know that one will work fine.
