Can A Universal Remote Work On Multiple TVs?

The term “Universal” in universal remote refers to its ability to work with different branded devices. However, while many universal remotes are compatible with a wide range of well-known TV brands, some may not work with lesser-known brands.

Most universal remotes can be programmed to operate multiple TV sets, even from different manufacturers. If you have a TV from a popular brand like LG, Samsung, Vizio, or Philips, there’s a good chance that many universal remotes will work with it. This is because universal remote manufacturers focus on making their products compatible with widely used brands, ensuring they reach a larger market.

Why Do Universal Remotes Work on Popular TV Brands?

When purchasing a TV, people often choose based on brand reputation to ensure they get a reliable product. Since millions of TVs from brands like LG or Samsung are sold, universal remote manufacturers prioritize making their remotes compatible with these brands to increase sales.

How to Use a Universal Remote with Two TVs

To start, it’s important to know there are different types of universal remotes available, depending on the features you need. You can find a basic remote for under $15, which will let you control essential functions like volume, channel changing, and power. If that’s all you need, a simple remote will do the job.

However, if you want more advanced features, there are smart universal remotes that can integrate with smart home assistants like Alexa or Google Home.

Programming a Basic Universal Remote

For basic remotes, you’ll typically need to enter a 4- or 5-digit code to program it for your TV. Each brand and device category has its specific code. For example, programming a Samsung TV will require a different code than an LG TV. The same applies if you want to control other devices like DVD players or home theater systems.

How to Find the Code

The codes you need will either come in the booklet with the remote or can be found online. Brands like General Electric (GE) and RCA have online code libraries where you can search by your TV’s brand.

The process to program the remote usually involves 3 to 6 steps, depending on the brand. Once you complete the steps, your remote will be synced with the TV and ready to use.

Can You Program the Remote for a Second TV?

If your remote supports multiple devices, you can program it to control another TV as well. The number of devices a remote can control is usually listed in the model details. For example, a GE 4-device remote can be paired with four different TVs or other devices.

Advanced Smart Remotes

If you’re looking for more advanced functionality, such as controlling streaming devices like Roku or using voice commands through Alexa, you’ll want to consider smart remotes. These often come with more features and a higher price tag. For instance, the Sofabaton remote is one of the top-selling smart remotes, with or without a hub. Priced around $200, it’s a great investment if you’re looking for features like app integration or controlling multiple devices seamlessly.

Can a Universal Remote Work with Any TV?

In most cases, yes! Many universal remotes are designed to work with almost any TV that uses IR (infrared) signals, which is standard for most TVs. Universal remotes often come with programming codes for hundreds of TV brands, making them highly versatile.

Just find the right code, follow the instructions, and your remote will be ready to use with your TVs.

To wrap up this post, I would strongly say that a universal remote can be used to control multiple TVs when programming it with a specific code for that model or brand.

Other troubleshooting tips

You can follow the given solutions to fix when your RCA remote is not working even after resetting and changing the batteries.

Remove the obstructions between TV and remote

Since the remote is working Infrared as the communication channel, there should need a direct line of sight in between the TV/any device and the remote. If any obstructions are present in between them, that may interrupt the IR signals. So, remove if any objects are present in front of the TV especially at a position of the IR sensor.

Do not exceed the distance more than 10 meter

It’s notable that the distance between the TV and remote should not exceed 10 meters. The manufacturers say there is no issue even if the distance is 12 meters, but it’s good to keep the distance as short as possible.

This will smooth the IR signal communication very effectively and will enable fast response times between the TV and remote.

If the LED light or POWER button backlight blinks continuously in RED, it indicates that the batteries are failing. Replace them with new batteries and reprogram the remote.

Relax all the buttons on the remote

This step is to recover any of the stuck keys within the panel. When prolonged usage, some buttons may stuck on a fixed position.

How will do this?

Remove the batteries.

Quickly press and release all of the buttons on the remote for many times. repeat it two or three times. Then re-insert the batteries and program with the device you want to control.

There is a quick test for this, I thing most of you may know. It is an old-school method.

Take your camera mobile phone, Point the remote to the phone camera, and press any key. If the IR sensor is working, you can see the IR LED blinking through your mobile display.

If some or any specific button is not working, you can use the same method. Point the remote to camera and press the button. If you are not seeing the LED blinking when pressing, you can confirm that the specific button is not working.

The issue may be either related to the circuit board, or the removal of the electric paint under the button pad.

Apply electric paint on the rubber button pad

You can follow this step if you are confident in repairing your remote control. If the electric paint of the number keypad has gone, there may not have enough contact between the button and the circuit board. You can apply the electric paint on the keypad.

Open the remote control panel, separate both circuit board and the rubberised keypad. Gently apply the electric paint in the under portion of the each keys. Wait till it dry.

Reassemble and test whether your RCA or any other remote is working fine or not.

You can buy the electric paint online or from an electrical shop.
