My dog stepped on the remote and somehow "lost" the factory preset code, now the remote doesn't work. The same thing happened a couple of years ago and I was able to get an answer from Best Buy, but of course I didn't write it down and no one there can help me now. They tell me to call Insignia, and they are not only RUDE, but refused to help because it's "out of warrantee." All I need is the remote reset procedure. Can anyone please help?
I'am not sure of the procedure to clear the unit i thought it was hold the volume button for 3 minutes... i have the same 23 lcd monitor and remote and it has happened to me several times... the code given to me was 990 and i inscribed it in the back of the remote it seem that insignia is rude to all customers and i will never buy another product with ther name on it... it seems the last time i called best buy you need to ask for tv repair department over 21 inches and just ask for the universal code i believe they gave me a code 999 but it didnt work setup and tv button at same time until the red light coomes on... then 990 i guess is all i have to offer.

It shouldn't loose the code for the television it was made for. It will possibly loose the codes for other items such as VCR's,DVD players, amplifiers etc..Try taking the batteries out for 2 minutes allowing the internal capacitors to drain then trying again. Otherwise make sure if towards the top or the bottom of the remote there are buttons to select the function you want to do such as control the TV,VCR,DVD etc. that you press the TV button before pressing the power button. If all that does't work theb time for the dog to purchase you a new remote.

Apprecite it, but I know there is a factory preset code and procedure for reconnecting the remote to the TV.
My bad...I rated it poor because it didn't solve the problem.
I've been through this before and know there is a factory preset code and procedure for "reprogramming" the remote. If there is a way to change the rating let me know and I will. Thank you for the assistance and I apologize.
