The TV mode in my Canon 60D suddenly missing. It becomes AV mode. I have two AV modes on the dial. I have updated the firmware to the latest 1.1.2 and reset to factory settings but no use. How to fix this problem. Thanks

Trouble shooting. Did this ever do this before the firmware update? If not can you go back on the firmware updates?
If you turn the dial, does it go to all the different modes including TV?

So if this is not a software glitch, it is most likely that the dial is dirty or the contact for TV/AV is dirty.
If the camera is not usable and you don't want to get another. You could trying cleaning the dial and contacts, follow the instructions. I did not watch it all the way through but seems easy enough and they may tell you how to clean/lubricate the contacts. If not, use electronic cleaner from walmart.
