I bought a new Philips Universal Remote Control at Wal-Mart this afternoon to replace the old RCA TV control.
The old one is still working except the volume up button. It is need 4 AAA batteries.
I tried my best to fix this button including open the controler and cleaning. All failed.
I saw the Universal Remote Control is about $9 with 3 devices, such as TV, VCR/DVD, Cable/Sat. This 3 devices controler has lowerst price. Some 4 or 5 devices may double the price.

When I install the batteries and try to search the code, firstly I did not success with the direct code entry.
It has a list of codes for different brand devices.
I have to try the second way by programming with code search. It is much easy.
1) Manually turn on the device (TV, DVD) to be controlled.
2) Press and hold code search button until the red indicator stays on. Release the code search button.
3) Press and release the desired mode button (TV, DVD,etc)
4) Press the Channel Up button repeatedly (up to 300 times) until the device to be controlled changes channel.
5) Press and release the Mute button to install the code.
This is a log for future use.

guys after you keep pushing the channel up button, press it slowley, then hit mute like he/she says, up top, and it will work...if you keep pushing the channel button to fast, after it changes a channel, then stops working, you have to start all over again, push it kinda slwoely

i lost my book and i need the code for a sony tv anyone might know let me know asap plz. i need my remote again thanks
IT WORKED!!! THANKS!!!! :D
Thanks so much for putting this online. I lost my manual and this worked perfectly! THANK YOU!
thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
much......i was once lost....now im found....
Thanks for the above instruction on programing. Have a Toshiba TV and DVD. Worked GREAT on programing the TV, but not the DVD. Any suggestions? Any help will greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Larry
thanks dog, your shit worked!
so what happens if i cant turn on the tv manually i have an RCA and we got the remote to work a couple times but everytime i take out the batteries it just stoppes working please help
Your suggestion worked. It will pay to count to yourself the clicks of the channel button if you want to go fast. If you do that, when you go past your spot when clicking...you can at least fly up to the pt on your next try and then slow down to keep from missing it. Thank you. This might work for other people. My tv was very old, that is probably why none of the codes worked from the site i have posted...it may work for others. good luck and thanks again.

YOU ROCK!!! I don't know what I would have done with out this... I couldn't find anything helpful anywhere else online.
Dude, do you know to set up a Toshiba Tv. I lost my manual. I tried the code search, 300 times but it didn't work at all. please help me out.
Thanks so much! This worked great for our new Sony TV whereas the codes on the remote pamphlet did NOT work.
Thanks so much for this post. All those other codes didn't work at all. I'm never programming this remote again any other way than this :)
