Hello, my name is Becki Barned, with Dish Network customer service. To get your tv to work those particular functions, you will need to reprogram the remote to the tv, finding a code that works all functions of the tv. Some codes will work the power and volume, but not the other functions. Try these steps:

1. Hold down the TV mode button until all lights at the top of the remote are lit up
2. Press the 3 digit code in
3. Press the pound button
4. Press the SAT button on the top left of the remote.

Here are the codes to try:
505
671
627
864
006

Hope this helps!

Hey there, this is Cheri Torres with DISH Network customerservice. I wanted to see if I could help you with the question you posted aboutthe Vizio sound bar. I was unfortunately not able to find any codes for theVizio sound bar. Another option you can try is running a channel scan to findyour code that will work best to control your sound bar. I hope that theseinstructions are useful to you. If you have any further questions or concernsplease feel free to post back here or email me at [email protected].

Remote: All Remotes (except Basic)
    1. With the desired equipment on, press and hold the correct Mode button until all mode button back lights illuminate, then release.
    2. Press and release the Power button. AUX Mode: Before pressing and releasing the Power button
      • Press 0 for a TV
      • Press 1 for a VCR/DVD
      • Press 2 for any other device.
      Then Press STAR (*)
    3. Press the Up button once a second while pointing the remote at the desired equipment. Note: If the code for the equipment comes up, the equipment will power off.
    4. Press the POUND (#) button. If the code entered is valid for the remote, the mode light flashes three times.

Tv cannot be controlled by remote control, the one that came with the tv or the dish network remote

We would be happy to help you with getting your DISH Networkremote to control your TV. We're going to start by pressing and holding the TVbutton located on the top of your remote until all mode button back lights comeon, and then release. Use the number buttons to enter the codes for your Vizio TV; here are some of the codes we currently have for it: 505, 598, 627, 888, and 802. Press the pound (#) button. To check that the code works try severaldifferent functions on the remote to make sure it will properly operate the TV.Remember that some codes may not be compatible with your equipment. If this isthe case, try the other codes listed for your Vizio TV until you findone that is compatible with it.

We hope this helps and thank you for being a valued DISH Network customer!

My remote does not turn on the tv and control the volume. Can you give me some codes to try for a vizio tv?

From the user manual,for 5 digit remotes (like most Direct TV units) use codes 11758 and 10178, then 01377, listed in order of preference. For 4 digit remotes use 1758, then 0178. For 3 digit remotes (Echostar or Dish Network) use code 627

Vizio won't turn off

This could be a mainboard problem. Sometimes one of the fuses may be bad and may freeze up causing the TV to not be able to power off.
