How to Program TV Remote Control
- 1). Look up your television model on the instruction booklet that came with your remote control. You can also check the resource links posted below to see if you can find your remote control model and look up the codes online.
- 2). Turn on your television set manually.
- 3). Press and hold down the "Code Search" button until you see the red light blink. Then press "TV" once to tell the remote that you want to program the television. Enter in the first code that you are given for your television model. Then try to turn the channels up, or to turn off the television to see if it worked. Repeat this process for all of the codes listed for your type of television until you get a response from your television.
- 4). If the manual entry doesn't work, press and hold down the "Code Search" button. Press "TV" again, but this time you're going to press "Code Search." Finally, press the off and on button until the television responds by switching off. That means that you have found the right code. Press "Enter" to lock it in. With some remotes, you can also do a full code search using the "Channel Up" button. Keep pressing up until the channel changes. If you accidentally pass the code, press "Channel Down" to attempt to go back to the correct code.
