How to Get Your ONN Universal Remote Working Without a Code

When programming your ONN universal remote without a code, two methods can assist you: the manual code search and the auto code search. These steps simplify syncing your remote to your devices.

Method 1: Manual Code Search

To pair your ONN universal remote with your device using the manual code search method, follow these detailed steps:

1. Power on the Device: Begin by turning on the device you want to control with your ONN remote. This could be a TV, DVD player, satellite receiver, or any other compatible device.

2. Press and Hold the “Program” Button: Locate the “Program” button on your ONN remote. Press and hold this button until the “Power” button on the remote lights up. This indicates that the remote is in programming mode.

3. Select the Appropriate Device Button: Identify and press the button on the remote that corresponds to the type of device you’re programming. For example, press the “TV” button for a television, the “DVD” button for a DVD player, or the “SAT” button for a satellite receiver.

4. Aim and Hold the “OK” Button: Point the remote directly at the device you wish to control. Press and hold the “OK” button on the remote. Keep the remote pointed at the device during this process.

5. Wait for the Device to Power Off: Continue holding the “OK” button until the device turns off. This may take a few moments. The device powering off indicates that the remote has found the correct code for your device.

6. Release the “OK” Button: Once the device turns off, release the “OK” button. Your remote should now be programmed to control the device.

Method 2: Auto Code Search

To pair your ONN universal remote with your device using the auto code search method, follow these detailed steps:

1. Ensure the Device is Powered On: Start by making sure the device you wish to control is turned on. This could be your TV, DVD player, satellite receiver, or another compatible device.

2. Activate Programming Mode: Press and hold both the “Power” button and the “Code Search” button on your ONN remote simultaneously. Continue holding them until the LED indicator on the remote remains steadily lit, signaling that the remote is in programming mode.

3. Initiate the Auto Code Search: Point the remote directly at the device you want to program. Press the “OK” button to begin the automatic code search process. Keep the remote aimed at the device during this process.

4. Wait for the Device to Respond: The remote will start cycling through all available codes. As it tests each code, observe the device for any response. This may take a few minutes.

5. Identify the Correct Code: When the device responds (e.g., turns off, mutes, or changes channels), it indicates that the remote has found the correct code. At this point, the remote should be programmed to control the device.

By following these steps, you should be able to use the auto code search feature to find the correct code and sync your ONN universal remote with your device.
