-   "YOU CAN BUY A UNIVERSAL REMOTE AND GET A LIST OF MANUFACTURERS CODES.WHY IS IT SO HARD TO RETRIEVE THIS CODE FROM THE MANUFACTURER?" Well possibly because IT'S NEVER LISTED. Not even from the manufacturer. So, Mr. Smartguy, if you have the code, you are in possession of a "holy grail" of remote codes of sorts. Why don't you share it? -   elricandbink
I am not positive if this will solve your issue but try this: Hit Cmskip and 1 - 2 -3 and it will show you the company details. Hit right arrow button and will take you to next page for other details. Again not sure if this info will solve the problem but worth a try. Remember to enter return and not Ok otherwise system will be reset.
