I’ll save you the headache. For most G.E. universal remotes, these codes are your best friends:
TVs: 0046, 0056, 0178, 1004, 1463
Universal Remote Control Codes List
DVD players: 0237, 0804, 0797
Soundbars: 0457, 1389, 1777
Try them in that order. If none work, do the Code Search trick from above. I promise it’s faster than reading the entire manual.
One Last Thing: Don’t Overthink It
You are not alone. Every person who owns a universal remote has sat on their floor, surrounded by remote controls, muttering “stupid codes.” It’s a rite of passage.
Remember: the universe wants you to watch Netflix without a second remote. These codes are just the bureaucracy you have to outsmart. So keep calm, press buttons like a mad scientist, and when your TV finally turns on, you can smugly say, “I am the master of all electronics.”
Now go forth, my friend. And if all else fails, just buy a pizza and use your phone. But that’s a story for another coffee chat.
