How to Program Your Magnavox Universal Remote to Work with ONN TV

If you have a Magnavox universal remote and want to use it to control your ONN TV, you’re in the right place. Consolidating your remotes makes everything simpler, and I’ll walk you through the exact codes and steps to get it done.

This guide is specifically for programming a Magnavox remote. Let’s get started.

Magnavox Remote Code List for ONN TVs

Here is the list of known codes for pairing a Magnavox universal remote with an ONN television. It’s a good idea to have these handy before you begin.

  • 2477
  • 0899
  • 1174
  • 1133
  • 2426

How to Program Your Magnavox Remote: Method 1 (Direct Code Entry)

This is the fastest and most common method. It involves entering one of the codes from the list above.

  1. Manually turn on your ONN TV.
  2. On your Magnavox remote, press and hold the SETUP button (on some models, it may be labeled PROG or LEARN) until the red indicator light turns on and stays lit.
  3. Press and release the TV button. The red light will blink once and then remain on.
  4. Using the number pad, enter the first 4-digit code from our list. If the code is correct, the red indicator light will turn off.
  5. Point the remote at your TV and press the POWER button. If the TV turns off, the setup is successful. Turn the TV back on and test the volume and channel buttons to confirm full functionality.

If the first code doesn’t work, simply repeat steps 2-5 with the next code on the list.

How to Program Your Magnavox Remote: Method 2 (Auto-Code Search)

If none of the codes from the list worked, this method will have the remote scan its library to find a working code for your ONN TV.

  1. Manually turn on your ONN TV.
  2. Press and hold the SETUP button on the Magnavox remote until the red indicator light turns on. Release the button.
  3. Press and release the TV button.
  4. Point the remote at the TV, then press and release the POWER button once. The remote is now in search mode.
  5. Press and release the Channel Up (CH+) button repeatedly, about once every second. Each press sends a new code to the TV.
  6. Continue pressing CH+ until your ONN TV turns off.
  7. As soon as the TV turns off, press the SETUP button once to lock in the correct code. The red light will turn off.
  8. Your remote should now be programmed. Test the functions.

Troubleshooting Your Magnavox Remote & ONN TV

My Magnavox remote doesn’t have a SETUP button. What do I do?

Some Magnavox models use a different button for programming. Look for a button labeled PROG(Program), LEARN, or sometimes a small “Magic” button. The process will be the same once you press and hold that button.

The red light on my remote isn’t behaving as described.

This is almost always a sign of weak batteries. Programming uses more power than normal operation. Always start with a fresh pair of batteries.

I tried all the codes and the auto-search, but it’s still not working.

While rare, it’s possible the specific chip in your ONN TV is not in the library of your older Magnavox remote. If you have tried the auto-search several times without success, they may unfortunately be incompatible.

Let Us Know if it Worked!

I hope this guide helped you get your Magnavox remote paired successfully. Your feedback is a huge help to others. Did a code from this list work for your ONN TV model? Please share the code you used and the model of your TV in the comments section below!
