To sync your DIRECTV remote to your TV, follow these steps:
1. Turn on Your TV: Make sure your TV is powered on.
2. Set the Remote to TV Mode: On your DIRECTV remote, press and hold the “TV” button at the top of the remote until the red light at the top stays on. Once the red light stays on, release the “TV” button.
3. Enter the TV Code:
– Use the code for your TV brand. You can find a list of TV codes in your DIRECTV manual or online.
– Once you’ve located the code, press and release the “Mute” button on the remote.
– Then, enter the first code number using the remote’s number buttons. After entering the code, the red light at the top of the remote will blink and turn off.
4. Test the Remote: Try using the remote to control the TV (like adjusting the volume or turning the TV off). If the TV responds, the remote has been successfully synced.
5. If It Doesn’t Work:
– Repeat the process using a different code from the list.
– If none of the codes work, try using the automatic code search method.
Automatic Code Search Method:
1. Press and hold the “TV” and “Enter” buttons at the same time until the red light stays on.
2. Release both buttons. The red light will blink and then stay on.
3. Press and release the “Channel Up” button. The remote will begin searching for a code for your TV.
4. When the TV turns off, press the “Enter” button to save the code.
After following these steps, your DIRECTV remote should be synced to your TV.
