Universal remote codes for Westinghouse TV

The code for a Westinghouse TV depends on which universal remote you have and its version. On GE, UltraPro and Jasco-made Philips remotes with code list CL5, the Westinghouse list starts with 5971, 5981 and 5781, followed by 5 more; on an RCA remote with revision R271U1, it starts with 58813. Use the finder or the table below to look up your remote and version, then enter the first code and check that the remote's buttons control the TV.

How to enter a code on GE CL5
  1. Open the battery compartment and find the code list version (CL3, CL4, CL5 or CL6) on the sticker under the batteries or inside the cover. Use codes from that version only.
  2. Press and hold SETUP until the red light turns on, then release it; the light stays on.
  3. Press and release the device button you want to use (for example TV, CBL, DVD or AUD). The red light blinks once and stays on.
  4. Type the first 4-digit code listed for your brand. The red light turns off after the fourth digit.
  5. Point the remote at the device and test the remote's buttons. If they do not work as expected, repeat steps 2 to 4 with the next code in the list.
  6. Repeat for each device you want to control.

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.

Quick answers

What is the 4-digit code for a Westinghouse TV?

Every GE, UltraPro and Jasco-made Philips code is 4 digits: on CL5, the Westinghouse list starts with 5971, 5981, 5781. On RCA remotes, only older revisions such as 31862 use 4 digits, where Westinghouse starts with 1712; current RCA remotes (R271U1, R341U1, R3F802) need 5 digits.

Where do I find my Westinghouse TV code?

The code comes from the universal remote's maker, not from the TV, so look inside the remote's battery compartment for its version (CL3 to CL6 on GE and Philips, a revision number on RCA) and use that row of the table.

Can I set it up without a code?

Usually. GE, UltraPro and Jasco-made Philips remotes have an automatic code search, and RCA's manuals for R271U1, R341U1 and R3F802 remotes describe code searches too; each tries the codes stored in the remote one by one. The steps are on the GE, Philips and RCA pages, or side by side on how to program a universal remote without a code.

How to enter the code

The key sequence depends on the remote, and for RCA on the revision. Full steps, code search and reset are on each remote's page:

  • GE and Philips (Jasco-made): hold SETUP until the red light turns on, press TV and type the 4-digit code; the light turns off. Test the remote, and try the next code if some buttons don't respond.
  • RCA: on R271U1 and R341U1, hold TV for about 2 seconds until the light stays on, release it and type the 5-digit code. On R3F802, keep holding TV while you type.

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.

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.

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.

Source: Auto Code Search; RCR504BE owner's manual (revision R271U1 per its code list); RCA Remote Code Finder (revision number, device brand, device type).

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.
