If you wish to buy its original remote control, contact the authorized service center, or authorized dealer to your device brand.
To select a proper universal remote control, you should know about the number of digits to its set-up codes.There are 3 digit, 4 digit, 5 digit, 2 digit and even single digit codes, to some brand devices.After confirming this, check the sites linked here.Both the sites have set-up code list and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls.Check which brand remote control has set-up code/s to your device brand, and buy that one according to availability?Brand name of the remote control isn't a matter, but it should have set-up codes in its code list, to the device you have.
Please note: Every new universal remote control will have set-up code list, and set-up procedure along with its user manual.Never accept a remote control, that hasn't both of this. If you see the sites by "MOSAIC" view, will make surf easier.

How do I replace the IR sensor?

If you took the batteries out of your remotes to change them, they possibly lost their programming and need to be reprogrammed. I drop my controller often and have to reprogram it. All of the lights light up but the TV appears dead. Either find your control programming guide or look it up on the internet how to reprogram your remote.

If my battery went dead on my remote do I have to reprogram remote when I put in new battery?

You should not have to reprogram the remote. The programming is stored in Non-volatile ram.

Tv Remote stop working already tried new batteries, also tried programing univers remote can't find electron so I tried curtis mathis codes and still can't program remote one work but would not turn of or...

This only takes about a minute and will restart 1 in 3 "Dead" Original Remote Controls.


Step 1- Pull the batteries out of the remote and leave them out until Step 4.

Step 2- Press and release each and every button one at a time on the remote control until every button has been pressed and released at least once!

Step 3- If your remote has slide switches, you must move the switch to
each position then repeat the button pushing in Step 2.
(When you're done, be sure to put the slide switch in the correct position to operate the unit the remote came with!)

Step 4- Put the batteries back into the remote, being very careful to install them correctly.
New batteries should be used if you're not sure about the old ones.

Step 5- Try the remote.

Special Note:

If you have a digital camera, camcorder or camera phone you can test the remote to see if it is emitting a signal. Face the remote towards the lens of the digital unit until you can see the front of the remote. Depress any button on the remote. You should see a light (steady, blink or flashing) being emitted from the remote.
If you do then the problem might not be the remote but the sensor on the set.

My remote control will not work despite putting in new batteries. If Lkeft for a few hours it will work a couple of times before not working again.

Maybe time for a new remote. But first, try some different batteries and make sure there is clear path from the remote to the unit. If you have a universal remote, program it for the TV first and try it. If it works, your other remote should be replaced or use the Universal remote to control the TV.

Did you install the batteries correctly?
Some remotes (Universal) need to be re-programed when you install new batteries.
Go to remotefinder.rca.com/default.aspx?site=rca for proper codes.
