GE universal remote codes

GE remote codes depend on the model and version of your remote. GE universal remote codes are 4-digit codes from Jasco, and the right list depends on the code list version printed in your battery compartment: CL3, CL4, CL5 or CL6. For a Samsung TV, CL4, CL5 and CL6 remotes list 5791, 5801 and 3301, while an older CL3 remote lists 29 codes starting with 3301. To program your remote, hold SETUP until the red light turns on, press TV, enter the code and test the buttons.

SAMSUNG TV codes for GE remotes, code list CL5

Source: Jasco's code list, checked September 24, 2026. Listed in the manufacturer's order. We haven't tested these codes on a physical remote.

How to enter a code on GE CL5
5791

Step 1 of 6, GE CL5

Some codes control only a few of a device's functions. Jasco recommends trying the other listed codes to find one that controls more before you settle on one. See the full GE guide for the code search and reset.

GE codes for popular TV brands in every version

Use only the column that matches the CL number on your remote. Codes are in the order Jasco lists them; Jasco does not say which to try first.

Where to find the CL version on a GE remote

1
2
Where GE, Philips and UltraPro remotes show the version. Take the batteries out: the sticker with the model and the code list version is under them (1) or on the inside of the battery cover (2). Here it reads CL5; yours may say CL3, CL4 or CL6.

Open the battery compartment. Jasco says the sticker is under the batteries or on the underside of the compartment cover, and it shows the model number and the code list version (CL3, CL4, CL5 or CL6). Write it down, then put the batteries back.

If there is no sticker, run the automatic code search below: it does not need a code list.

Can't read the CL number? Try the codes every list shares

On an older remote the sticker can be rubbed off or stuck behind the battery door. Without it you can't tell which column of the table above is yours, but you can still start with the codes that sit in every column. Jasco prints the numbers in the first column below for that brand in CL3, CL4, CL5 and CL6, so your remote lists them whichever version it follows.

How many there are depends on the brand. Samsung has one, 3301: CL3 lists 29 Samsung codes, CL4 to CL6 list three, and only 3301 is in both. LG and Vizio have six each and Sony has five. TCL and onn have none in all four lists (Jasco's CL3 has no onn entry at all), so for those the second column is the better start: codes that CL4, CL5 and CL6 all list. CL4 and CL5 are almost twin lists, with 229 of 260 shared TV brands identical.

Try them in the order shown, with the direct-entry steps below. A code that appears here is one Jasco lists for the brand; it can still control only some buttons, so test volume and the menu key as well. If none of them works, the automatic code search below needs no list at all. We haven't tested these codes on a physical remote.

UltraPro, Magnavox and other Jasco-made remotes

UltraPro universal remotes (sometimes written Ultra Pro) are made by Jasco and use the exact same CL3 to CL6 code lists and steps as GE, including the same battery-compartment sticker. Magnavox-branded universal remotes (a Jasco house brand, distinct from Philips-made Magnavox TVs) use the same lists too: for a Samsung TV, a CL5 Magnavox universal remote lists the same 5791, 5801 and 3301 as a CL5 GE remote.

For a Magnavox TV itself, use the Magnavox row in the TV codes table above.

Check the battery compartment for the CL version and use the direct entry, auto search and reset steps below, whichever brand is printed on the remote.

How to program a GE universal remote

The same steps work for UltraPro and Jasco-made Philips and Magnavox remotes. For a brand-neutral walkthrough with the automatic search and a factory reset side by side, see how to program a universal remote.

Direct code entry (GE, Philips US, UltraPro)

Applies to: Every CL3, CL4, CL5 and CL6 remote. Source: Jasco universal remote code lists, CL3 to CL6, checked September 24, 2026.

5791
The drawing enters 5791, the first Samsung TV code on the CL5 list.

Step 1 of 6, GE CL5

  1. Depending on the model, the red light is a small light at the top of the remote or the power button itself.

Test before you keep a code. Some codes control only a few of a device's functions. Jasco recommends trying the other listed codes to find one that controls more before you settle on one.

If no listed code works: Automatic code search

  1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
  2. Press and hold SETUP until the red light turns on, then release it. The red light stays on.
  3. Press and release the device button (for example TV, STR, BLU-RAY, AUD, DVD, CBL, SAT or AUX). The red light blinks once and stays on.
  4. Point the remote at the device and press and release POWER. The remote sends 10 codes, blinking once for each. If the device doesn't turn off, press POWER again to send the next 10.
  5. When the device turns off, turn it back on by hand, point the remote at it and press VOL up, waiting about 3 seconds between presses. Each press resends one code from that batch of 10. When the device turns off again, press the same device button to store that code. If you go past the working code, press VOL down to step backward through the batch. The red light flashes twice at the first or last code of a batch.
  6. Test the buttons. If they don't operate the device, run the search again to find another code.

Source: Auto Code Search, checked September 24, 2026.

Start over: factory reset

  1. Press and hold SETUP until the red light stays on, then release it.
  2. Press and release MUTE.
  3. Press and release 0 (zero). The red light blinks twice, and the remote returns to its factory settings.

Jasco lists a different reset for its Roku TV replacement remotes (GE and Philips models 66814, SRP6220R/27 and SRP6120R/27): hold SETUP until the light stays on, then press REWIND four times. Source: Universal Remotes FAQ, checked September 24, 2026.

Replacing a lost or broken GE remote

Set it up with the steps above and the codes for the version printed in its battery compartment.

  • GE 4-Device Universal Remote 33709 Jasco makes it, per the listing, and Jasco publishes the CL3 to CL6 lists this site prints, with the same SETUP-button steps. When it arrives, read the CL number in the battery compartment and use that column. Controls up to four devices, and its TV button is preset for Samsung TVs, per the listing. It won't work a Roku Streaming Stick or Fire TV Stick, which use radio rather than infrared.

Code not working? Match the symptom

Each answer restates the manufacturer's own troubleshooting advice; the source is under each one.

The light doesn't do what the steps describe

Jasco says the most common cause is bad batteries, even brand-new ones: try a different set.

On RCA R271U1 remotes, an indicator that stays lit after the fifth digit means the code is not in that remote's lists or a step was missed. On R3F802 remotes, a POWER key that blinks four times means the same thing, or that the device key was released during entry.

Source: Universal Remotes FAQ; RCR504BE owner's manual (revision R271U1 per its code list); RCR313BE owner's manual (revision R3F802 per its code list).

Power works, but volume, input or menu buttons don't

The stored code only partly matches your device. Program the next code listed for your brand and test again; the manufacturers say several codes can work, and some control more buttons than others. A button can also fail because the device's own remote never had that feature, such as a sleep timer.

Source: Universal Remotes FAQ; How to program your remote control.

Volume works, but the channels don't change

If a cable box, satellite receiver or converter box changes your channels, the channel buttons have to control that box, not the TV. Program the box on its own device button (for example CBL or SAT) and change channels in that mode.

The menu won't open, or the arrow buttons do nothing

Jasco remotes may need shift mode: press and release SETUP, then press MENU or the arrows while the red light is blinking. On RCA R271U1 remotes, the SHIFT key turns CHAN and VOL into arrow keys and ENTER into OK; press SHIFT again to leave shift mode. If that fails, try another code for your brand.

A Roku Streaming Stick or Fire TV Stick ignores the remote

Those sticks use radio-frequency (RF) remotes, while universal remotes send infrared (IR) signals. Jasco says the STR button on its remotes controls Roku boxes that have an infrared sensor, not the Streaming Stick or any Fire TV device.

The code is rejected or has the wrong number of digits

You're probably using a list for a different version. Jasco CL codes are always 4 digits. RCA revisions R271U1, R341U1 and R3F802 use 5-digit codes, while older revisions such as 31862 use 4 digits. Check the label in the battery compartment and pick that exact version in the finder. See how the lists differ between versions.

No code is listed for my brand, or none of the codes work

Use your remote's automatic code search (the steps are on each remote's page). It tries every code stored in the remote for that device type, so it can find a code even when your brand isn't on the printed list.

The remote forgot its codes after a battery change

Jasco remotes keep programmed codes for up to 10 minutes while the batteries are out. RCA's manual warns that remotes can lose their programming during a battery change and asks you to keep the code list, so write down the codes that worked.
