I have a EWC19T3 tv/vcr/dvd combo my ex-boyfriend threw the remote and shattered it. I have a philips/magnavox universal remote but I've tried all the codes listed for emerson (which is a lot) and none of them seem to work. What's the code for this tv? I'm ready to throw it in the trash cause I can't change the channel. Please help.

Unfortunately, the remote you picked up may be incompatible with your current TV. (I found older universal remotes didn't work with my newest set that had a digital tuner. These were remotes that worked with ~20 year old tvs (analog only). Similarly a new remote might not work with an older TV. Then you get stuck with the result you have.)

Remotes.com has a substitute remote that has all of the functions of the original remote: http://www.remotes.com/remotes/servlet/rs?a=Search&o=c&uid=0&m=EWC19T3&uuid=12792355576670
This one will work.

Your TV has Select, volume and channel change buttons on the front of the TV. So a tedious way to deal with the problem is to move to the TV to change channels. The Volume controls are under the DVD tray. Select (toggle TV/VCR, DVD, and external input) is the first one on the left under the VCR cassette slot. The channel up/down is to the right of the Select.

I wish that I could be of more help.

(However, you might try the Philips Remote Code Finder: http://www.urc.philips.com/ and select your country and click on the right arrow. Then find your remote model and see if you can get a single number for your TV. On the newer remotes I looked at, it only returned a code of 0917 for All Emerson devices.)
