20 Most Recent Universal Remote Control DIRECTV Universal Remote Control Questions & Answers

yes go into kitchen open bin drop in these remotes are not meant for our tv/dvd/sat etc they are for a chinese system save your hair chuck it away sorry to say I got one of these oh dear !!!!!!!! you would be better getting a sky type copy remote from the two pound shop I did works great

Most universal remote controls have a scan feature to find a code where one is not available. If this process doesn't work, additional assistance may be found at Community.InsigniaProducts.com.

I hate to say it's unlikely that a "Universal" remote from DirectTV has compatibility with every system and manufacturer. However, my directTV model remote (and there are numerous ones) has a search function with which you don't need to enter a code... it finds one for you. If the control documentation doesn't mention such an option (Code Find), then I'd say your SOL. I'd recommend a Universal Remote made for no specific purpose but to be a UR... using a system included UR never comes off very well. 

There arethree possibilities that cause this symptom. 1. The buttons on the TV are shorted and must be replaced. 2. The firmware must be upgraded. 3.The main bd is bad and must be replaced.

Replacement remotes should come with the codes, the las 1 I got had a booklet of codes for various types and makes of device, some had several codes any you needed to try each in turn until you go to the correct code. Not sure if the different makes of remote need the same or differnt codes. I suggest you contact the remotes maker for the possible codes.

Remote codes, if any, ae gotten form the manufacturer of the remote.

Set-up (Programming) procedure is too much to type in here, and is not practical and it will differ brand-to-brand remote controls. If you wish to get more; check the sites linked here.

The site has general set-up codes to check with TVs and other devices are given, in the order of the 'device's brand name list' in alphabetical order.

There may be another code in the code list that performs more functions. Try other codes from the code list for more functionality. This is a trial and error procedure; and quiet time consuming. You might have to check different codes said for your device.

Setup Instructions

Set the "Mode Switch" to Device 0.

Press and hold the "Mute" button and the "Select" button until the visible LED blinks twice.

Enter the 5 digit Code above.

Try your new code and tell us how it worked!

This worked for me. I had to scan down quite a few times but eventually my tv turned off and I set the code with the # button. It may work for you too and save you some money on a UR.

Scan For Device Codes If the code for the device you are programming is not listed in the user manual or on this site, try these steps to scan the remote controls memory for device codes.

1) Turn the power on the device on

2) Select and hold the mode button for which you are programming, such as the TV button, on the remote until you see all the lights of the mode buttons flash. Once you let go, that mode button that you chose should now be blinking. When using the Aux mode button only use the number pad to enter 0 for a second TV, 1 for a second VCR/DVD, 2 for a amplifier, tuner, or cable box. Then press the STAR (*) button.

3) Press the power button on the Dish Network remote control.

4) Repeatedly press the UP or DOWN button on the remote to scan for the correct code (do this slowly so you do not skip over the right code for your device). When the correct code is reached the device will turn off.

5) Press the POUND (#) button to store the code in the Dish Network remote.

6) Press the power button to turn the device back on and try using other buttons on the remote to make sure that they also work. Sometimes the power button will work while others may not.

Parker TV will work under TCL (Brand) codes.
