How to Set Up the Codes for a Sanyo Television and a Remote

Your Sanyo TV can be set up with a variety of different remote controls which allows you to turn off your TV or adjust its volume, among other features. Successfully setting up your Sanyo TV with a remote merely requires determining the type of remote you have and following the setup process for each kind.

Set Up Sanyo TV With a Universal Remote

To set your Sanyo TV up with a universal remote, press the “Setup” button on your remote until the light displays. Press the “TV” button on your universal remote and enter “0049”. Press the “TV” button again and then press the “Volume Down” button on your remote. If the volume does not change, repeat the process with these alternate codes: “0097”, “0110”, “0004”, “0268”, “0012”, “0108" or "0180."

Set Up Sanyo TV With Comcast/Xfinity Remote

The setup process for a Sanyo TV and Comcast or Xfinity remote is fairly simple. Hold down the “Setup” button on your remote until its LED either changes from red to green or blinks, and then type in “10154” on your remote. Press the “Volume Up” button on your remote. If the TV volume increases, then the Sanyo TV is successfully set up with your Comcast or Xfinity remote. If not, go through the process again and try these alternate codes until one works: “11142”, “10799”, “11362”, “11785”, “10036”, “10735”, “12049”, “12264”, or “11480”.

Type in “11142” on your DirecTV remote and then press the “Power” button on your remote. If your Sanyo TV turns off, your remote is successfully set up with the TV. If not, repeat the process and instead try one of these other codes until one works: “11362”, "12049", "11480" or "11564".
