So here is the simple way of programing a RCA remote for any brand of TV, for reference I will be using my LG TV set as an example with my RCA RCR504BR Remote Control.


1.Make sure your RCA remote has in batteries and that it is working,now Power on your TV set manually.Press and hold code search button on the RCA remote, the red LED light will light up and stay lit, at this time you can let go of the button.
2. Next select the component like the TV, VCR that you want to control from the buttons on the remote, in my case that would be TV.
3.Now Punch in your 4 digit code thats related to your brand, for My LG TV the codes were: 1423, 1447, 0017, 0178, 2358, 2424. For me the first code worked so try them one at a time until you find the correct one. For other brands TV codes see the image below for your specific number.
5. After inputting the 4 digit code press power ON or OFF button on the remote, if the code is correct the TV will Power OFF, if not start over from step 1 and try another code.
