Programming Notes
• If your device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed or your brand is not listed in the code list, use the Auto Code Search method to program your remote.
• Sometimes the first code that "works" with your device may operate only a few functions of your device. 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.

Hi, my name is Cheri Torres and I am with DISH Network Internet Response Team. I came across your post and wanted to see if I could help. I will list here for you the best codes for addressing a DISH remote to a Sceptre TV. I will also list the instructions for addressing your remote to your TV. I hope you find this information useful and if you have any further questions or concerns please feel free to ask.

Remote codes for Sceptre - 500 and 677.

Instructions for addressing the remote to the TV
1. Press and hold down the TV button until all the mode button light up red.
2. Enter the 3 digit code for your TV in the remote keypad.
3. Press the pound(#) button once.
4. Test the functionality of your TV.

I contacted the manufacturer's customer service department, who advised me to return the unit to the vendor. Walgreen's took it back, without a sales receipt, for store credit.

The Sceptre TV do use the Sony codes. However, the cheap universal remotes do not have the buttons needed. The Volume Up/down and channel up/down are controlled with the circle of buttons (arrows) in the middle of the remote.
You can get an OEM remote from Sceptre. They still have them available. Sceptre is in California.

I just got a 42" komodo by Sceptre, same problem, except "SCEPTRE" showed on the screen. I was sent a USB key program to insert in the service slot in the back and it reflashes the bios. This is old news for you but maybe new for someone?
