Remote Control won't work with TV

You might need to reset the remote control if the codes don't work.

If you've got the BT YouView remote that came with the box (with the 'BT Vision' button on it), hold down the two buttons either side of '0', whilst also holding down the power button for around 5 seconds. The blue light on the remote should flash three times to confirm it's successfully reset.

If you've got the retail YouView remote (with the 'TV' and 'PVR' buttons on it), press and hold the 'TV' button and the red coloured button at the same time for 5 seconds. The 'TV' and 'PVR' buttons should flash red 3 times to confirm.

Try your codes again after. I believe 4483 is the code in the setup guide.

You can see an easy step-by-step guide to programming your remote right on your TV screen:
Press MENU on your remote control Select Settings & Help Select Settings Select Remote Control Select Program Remote and follow the on-screen prompts You can also use the manual method below: Make sure your TV and your receiver are both on. Use this tool to look up the 5-digit code for your TV. There could be more than one code for your brand of TV. Slide the MODE switch on your remote control to the TV position. Press and hold the MUTE and SELECT buttons at the same time until the green light at the top of your remote flashes twice, then release both buttons. Using the number buttons, enter the 5 digit code for your brand of TV. The green light under the TV should flash twice. Aim the remote at your TV and press the VOLUME UP button. If the volume doesn't increase, repeat Steps 3-5, trying a different 5-digit code for your TV. If your remote control fails to program using all available codes, try scanning for additional codes. If one of the codes worked, proceed to the next step. Press and hold MUTE and SELECT buttons until the green light at the top of your remote control flashes twice. Enter 9-6-0 using the keypad on the remote control. The green light should flash twice again. Slide the MODE switch on your remote control to the DIRECTV position. Follow these steps to scan for additional TV codes using your DIRECTV remote: Slide the MODE switch on your remote control all the way to the right to the TV position. Press and hold the MUTE and SELECT buttons at the same time until the green light at the top of your remote flashes twice, then release both buttons. Using the number buttons, enter 9-9-1. The green light on your remote should flash twice. Aim the remote at your TV and press CHAN/PAGE UP button. Tap the CHAN/PAGE UP button repeatedly until the TV powers off. When the TV powers off, press and release the SELECT button. Note: If the green light flashes three times before your TV responds, then all codes have been cycled through. Our remote controls are guaranteed to program to your DIRECTV receiver, but your TV may not be compatible with our remote control.

Hey sevenwindham,

If the remote won't work it may need to be programmed to the TV. You can personally look at the steps in the link below, just look up the model of your remote. The steps to program your remote are also provided

http://www.dishnetwork.com/SupportSection/remote-setup

Addressing Remote to TV:

1.) Press and hold the clear TV button until all mode lights light up.
2.) Release and TV light will be blinking.
3.) Enter code and press #.
4.) Try functions (Volume, Power, etc..) and see if working.
5.) If no function, repeat steps 1-4 with another code.

If that doesn't work you can also try the Power Scan listed below.

Power Scan:

1.) With the TV on, press and hold the desired mode button (about six seconds) on top of the remote until all mode button backlights come on, then release.
2.) Press 0 then press STAR (*) and press and release the Power button.
3.) Press the Up button once a second while pointing the remote at the TV. If the code for the TV comes up, the TV will power off.
4.) Press the POUND (#) button. If the code entered is valid for the remote, the mode light flashes three times. To verify the code works try several different functions for that equipment.

If you have any other questions let me know!

You were attempting to perform a power scan initially. The second procedure is manually attempting to address the remote to your TV. I will give you the procedures again so you can try one more time. Emerson TV is one brand we have a low percentage of success getting our remotes to work. If it still doesn't work, we could try replacing the remote.

Remotes: Basic (Television Only)

1. Turn the Television On.
2. Press and hold the clear TV button for six seconds until the LED flashes.
3. Enter the three-digit code using the buttons on the number pad.
4. Press #. Note: The LED will flash three times.
5. Test functionality with the TV.
6. Return to Step 2 if the remote is not able to turn the TV On/Off, change the volume and mute the television.

Hello, follow this link to download the manual and the codes for your remotes:
http://www.ofausa.com/remote.php?type=URC7800
just right click and save as on the download links.

if this does not work you can try the search method,
you do this by either holding down the device button eg: TV or if you have one the "magic" button for three seconds, a light should then flash twice to say you have done this correctly.
then press the keys 991 then the power button.
you must now press the channel up key (ch+) possibly upto 150 times while the remote cycles through every code.
Once your tv or device switches off stop pressing the ch+ key and press the power button to make sure it switches back on,
(if you press ch+ too many times you can go back by pressing ch-)
When complete press the magic or device key again to save the settings (light should flash twice to confirm)

Many thanks
Mark

SEARCHING FOR YOUR CODE
If your device does not respond to the remote control after trying all codes
listed for your brand, or if your brand is not listed at all, try searching for
your code.
NOTE: Before performing a code search for a DVD player or a VCR, turn on the device and
insert the required media.
For example, to search for a code for your TV:
1. On the remote control, press TV once.
2. Press and hold SET until the LED (red light) blinks twice,
then release SET.
3. Enter 9 - 9 - 1.The LED will blink twice.
4. Aim the remote control at the TV and slowly alternate
between pressing POWER and TV. Stop when the TV turns off
(after pressing POWER). If the device does not have a Power
key, you can substitute another function, such as digits 0 ~ 9 ,
CH, or PLAY).
NOTE: In the search mode, the remote control will send IR codes from
its library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code
first.
5. To lock in the code, press and release SET.The LED will
blink twice.
6. To search for the codes of your other devices, repeat steps
1 through 5, but substitute the appropriate device key for
the device you are searching for.
here is the maual for your remote:

First check if the remote control is sending an infrared signal. If the LED is flashing, this does not mean the Remote control is sending the IR signal. There is a separet Infrared LEd that sends the signal. To check the IR, point the remote control in a video camera or any camera with real-time monitor (phone cam, webcam, etc.) and press any button. You will see a white flash coming from the Remote control. thjis works best if the camera is black&white, for color camera, the IR is still visible but quite faint. Another way of checking the IR (if you do not have a camera) is to press the RM in front of another device with remote control and while doing so, press the correct remote control . If that other does not function or functions erratically, then the remote control in question is emitting an IR signal. If there is no IR coming out, the solder conection of the IR LED might be the problem. It is rare that the IR LED will be damage because the remote control is only 3 volts. If the remote control does emit an IR signal, then the TV remote reciever is defective. I had this problem with a CD player that I have fixed. The IR reciever looks like an LED (dark colored) with three pins (V+, signal, ground). Cost less than $3
