I just bought a Philips Universal remote. I have gone through 4 different Universal remotes previously and none will work. Today as I was trying to get my TV code setup on the Philips remote, it stopped at the appropriate code and I pressed "Mute" as it instructed to save the code to the remote. It doesn't work. When I try to change channels or the volume it doesn't work. The remote is a Philips Universal Remote for 6 devices, PH63S. My tv is a Magnavox 27MS343S 27" TV . Any ideas? It is also not working for my brand-new DVD/VCR combo.
With nearly all brands of universal remote control, there is usually more than one code for Philips. Keep going through the codes until you find one that works correctly.
So if you know that the 1st code doesn't work, then don't save it, and move to the next.
You may find that several codes will actually put the TV into standby, but other functions will be different.
