[Fixed] GE Universal Remote Menu Buttons Not Working

The remote for my Sceptre TV went bad so I replaced it with a GE universal remote from Amazon. I used the codes from the manual to program the remote to the TV but the directional menu buttons would not work. I was able to fix this by using the automatic scanning function to search for a different code that would work with this TV.

Link to the remote on Amazon:

You are the only guide I found that correctly states how to use the volume up to find the correct code. Thank you!

2023 here - you are a lifesaver! I’ve had this issue for the longest, where the universal remote won’t access the tv settings via the menu button. A few minutes with this vid, and it’s fully functional! Thank you!

Over a year ago I gave up with this controller, I thought all the buttons were mapped incorrectly until I watched this video. THANK YOU, this tix worked perfectly

My universal remote was working fine earlier today. But then, for some unknown reason, it decided to stop working properly. & I had absolutely no idea what the problem was. But you, & your video saved my night. Because everything's working properly again. Thank you very much.

This by far has been the best video on actually getting all the buttons to work. Thank you!!!

You've made my life so much easier. I was so tired of having to switch out my HDMI cables. Thank you sir.

You are a God Send. Man I've had this remote for like 5 to 10 years and never opened it. Once I did, I was disappointed it wasnt working. I've tried to program this Hisense Roku TV before but it wasn't working. The online instructions don't tell you to do it then way you did with the volume button. Thank you so much

This worked

3.5 hours trying to program new universal remote, for my Toshiba, according to the instructions. Your instructions worked. I didn't use the codes. 15 minutes and I'm up and running like before. THANK YOU!

Thank you so much! My mom has been missing her cooking channels and we couldn’t get the menu buttons to work. This was so helpful!

[taraantonetta]

I'm a tech nightmare. I cannot believe I was able to do that with no codes. Thank you.

[MilcaCovarrubias]

You are a literal life saver, I was about to start crying because I was so frustrated... 🙌🏼

[keileyvickers]

Bless you! thank you so much I was getting really annoyed that I could not use the remote control in a house I am renting! Thes instructions worked like a charm!

[neotoxicenviful]

Thank you for saving me the headache 🙂 worked like a charm. One million thanks!!!! Went crazy when I got home and all my remotes stopped working 😭😭😭

[Cheezeits]

Just wanted to comment and say thank you lol. I found my TV code via the paperwork in your video. I lost mine and none of the codes on Google for a LG TV worked 😅. Thanks for the paperwork view!

[uknow]

I used your advice in 2023 and it still works!🎉

[judya.]

Thank you so much for this! Quick, Easy and actually works. At first, i did not understand why my GE universal remote stopped working. I tried the batteries and other stuff! Thanks to your video, it's working again! Extremely Grateful! Thank you. New Subscriber :) Keep up the good work !
