How To Find Your Hisense TV Remote Codes from Scratch
If you want to pair your remote with your Hisense TV but do not know which code to enter, follow the steps below to find a code for your TV:
- Check the manuals – the first place where you will find the remote codes is the Hisense TV manual or your universal remote’s manual. This is because a lot of manuals will have a list of codes that are compatible with several TV models and brands.
- Search online – if the manuals do not have the correct code, try finding it online by entering the ‘(your remote brand) code for Hisense TV’ into the search engine. With this method, you will get the required code, but you must verify the accuracy of the information.
Ways of Programming Your Universal Remote
Now that you have the code, use any of the following methods to program your universal remote:
#1. Automatic Code Search
The automatic code search function makes programming your remote easy as it simplifies the process by searching through the available codes until it gets the correct one for your TV. Follow the steps below to do an automatic code search:
- Power on your Hisense TV.
- Press the device button on your remote and hold it.
- Now press and hold the power button while holding the device button until the remote’s LED light turns on.
- Point the remote towards the TV after releasing both buttons.
- Repeatedly press the power button until the TV switches off.
If your TV powers off, it means that it has found the right code. To save it, press the device button again and your remote will be successfully programmed into your Hisense TV.
#2. Direct Code Entry
The direct code entry method allows you to enter the code directly to program your universal remote.
Here are the steps to follow:
- Switch on your Hisense TV.
- On your universal remote, press the device button and hold it.

- Press the power button while pointing the remote toward the TV.
- If the TV switches off, it shows that you have entered the correct code.

The universal remote is now ready to be used with your Hisense TV as it is now programmed. If it does not work, try entering another code.
#3. Direct Code Search/Step-Through Codes
This method does not require you to have a code, but it can be time-consuming compared to the methods above.
Here is how to do a Direct Code Search:
- Turn on your Hisense TV.
- Press the ‘Setup’ button on your universal remote and hold it until the light indicator turns on.
- On your remote, enter ‘9-1-1’.
- Point the remote at the TV then press and hold the power button.

Troubleshooting Tips for Remote Not Working
Hopefully, you have been able to enter the right code without an issue. If not, then your remote might have a few issues.
Follow the steps below to identify and solve the issues:
- Buttons not held down – your remote may require you to hold the device or TV key button down otherwise the code entry will not work if it is not done properly.
- Low batteries – remotes are normally shipped with no batteries at all or with dud batteries. An easy solution is to always buy new batteries.
- Interrupted signal – after input, universal remotes usually have a slight delay to ensure that they work with the TV. If there is a broken line of sight between the TV and the remote before the TV can respond, then there will be a miscommunication. Ensure that you are directly pointing the remote at the TV, then give it a few seconds to respond.
- Faulty parts – the issue could be that your TV or remote is defective. Use the manual buttons to check if your TV is working properly. There is a higher chance that your remote is damaged if you cannot see any lights on it.
- Device interference – the remote signal can be interfered with if there are several devices connected to the TV through HDMI. Turn off ‘HDMI CEC’ in your TV settings to ensure this is not causing the issue.
- Reboot your TV – disconnect the TV from the power source, give it a few minutes, and then reconnect it back. Now power on the TV and try the remote again.
- Ensure that the Hisense TV model and the universal remote are compatible. You can find this information on the Universal Remote’s product page.
