Not sure if this is the best group for this question -- if, not, my apologies and my humble request for pointers to a more appropriate group.
Sharp 13VT-J100 combinationTV/VCR unit.
Remote is lost. I have three of these TV / VCR units and have remotes for only two.
Bought a "universal" remote, a GE RM24906. Fresh batteries.
Tried to program the GE Universal for the Sharp TV , going through all the steps. GE unit lists possible codes of 004; 006;, 009; 020; 063; 079; 095; 122;
123; 226 and 229.None worked. Zero functions.
Programed the GE Universal to run a Sylvania TV for which I had a known "good" code. GE Universal ran the Sylvania unit flawlessly.
To me this says the GE universal is functioning.
Used one of the original remotes from one of the other Sharp units on the Sharp unit I need the replacement remte for. The Sharp remote runs the Sharp TV / VCR flawlessly. This tells me the Sharp TV/VCR is working.
But in no way can I get the blankety blank GE universal remote pogrammed to run the blankety blank Sharp TV/ VCR unit.
Any body out there got any ideas?
Thank you.
