Press and hold the "Code Search" button on your Philips remote until the indicator light stays on.

Manual Code Entry:
Find the code for your Sylvania TV in the Philips remote control manual. If you don't have the manual, you may be able to find it on the Philips website.
Turn on your Sylvania TV.
Press and hold the "Code Search" button on the remote until the indicator light stays on.
Enter the code using the number buttons on the remote.
Test if the remote now controls your TV. If not, repeat the process with a different code.
Try Common Codes:
Some common Sylvania TV remote codes for Philips remotes are 0810, 1684, 1886, 2183, 1081, 1172, 1196, and 2049. Try entering these codes manually.
A variety of remote control codes can be found at InsigniaProducts.com; just search for your TV model number and click Support. Also, try codes for the following brands: Orion, Emerson, Memorex, Sansui, Sylvania, Zenith.
I installed systems for Directv, and whenever i went into a home that had a combo tv / vcr, i could never get a set to program properly. At the most on some sets the remote would turn the tv set on and off, but others functions were non responsive.
Here are some sites that will have your codes and instructions on how to enter them:
Universal TV Remote Control codesUniversal remote control codes for all TV and VCR brands including: at&t, beery systems, bondwell, curtis mathis, dish network, ge, gemini, ... www.tvcodes.com/ - 23k - Cached - Similar pages -
Several people in the on-line forums suggested inputting the brand search codes for Philips and Magnavox sets -- but it didn't work for me. Someone else suggested that Funai Corp (China) now makes some Sylvania sets, and their rep said that universal remotes don't work for their products. My Philips Universal Remote says to enter "0" for the brand search code, and that will instruct it search for all the codes installed in it. But there are approximately 300, so be very patient. And it didn't work for me anyway. . . but maybe it will for you.
If you do find an answer/solution, pl post it, OK? Thanks.
