Lost my TV remote
You REALLY have to follow the directions on those replacement remotes.
When it says to wait until a light stops flashing before proceeding you better! Or you will have to start all over again.
They don't always work with the first number you use. They give you several numbers within the instructions to choose from. Sometimes you have to go down the list till you hit one that works. But I have never had one not work. On one of my TV's it was the very last numbers listed that worked.
BTW: did you open up your couch to check if your remote fell in that slot on the couch that goes to the storage area underneath? That's where I usually find mine likes to go. :W
