Wii in B&W on Grundig TV

Hello,

I have a French Wii and a French TV, a Grundig Eurosystem type (I don't have more information about the model). My Wii was working perfectly on my old TV (which was older than the Grundig), and since I connected it to the TV (which I recently retrieved), it displays in black and white. I've tried it on other TVs and it's in color. I also tested it with my DVD player.
The DVD player also goes black and white if PAL is selected, then switches to color if I choose NTSC (in the player's internal menu). Could it be the same problem for my Wii?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to switch the Wii from PAL to NTSC, so I need to switch my TV to PAL (since I assume it is set to NTSC). Does anyone know how to do that?
I am very surprised that my TV is in NTSC since my parents bought it in France and my French N64 displayed in color!
I have the original remote, type Grundig TP 623, but I don't have the manual.

Thank you in advance to anyone who can provide me with information!!!
Happy holidays
Jojo

    Hi

    You need to set everything up (Wii output and TV input) to PAL B.
    Generally, if only one SCART socket on the TV has this option, it's usually the one with the highest number (like AV3 or AV4).

      Thank you Willy,

      It's exactly what I thought, I'm now facing 2 problems:
      - I feel like we can't change much in terms of settings on the Wii (by the way, I think it's in PAL since it works in color on other TVs)
      - I've lost the manual for my TV and I have no idea how to switch it to PAL! If anyone has the manual for a Grundig T70 545 S EURO, I'd appreciate it (I still have the original remote, which is already good)!!

      Happy holidays

      I've already looked, but they don't offer the manual for this model (I've found other sites but they charge, and that's boring :) ) So I've sent an email to Grundig directly, hopefully they'll respond...
      In any case, thanks for everything!!

      Hello,

      since Grundig is not responding and I cannot find the user manual for the Grundig T70-545 SEURO on the site you recommended, I was wondering if you knew of other websites?
      Happy holidays!

        Hello,

        have you found a way to adjust your Grundig TV? I have the same TV as you, and I have a problem with my Freebox displaying in black and white on AV2 and AV3, and in color with a very strong green tint on AV1. I would really like to fix this.

        Thank you for your response.
