Jumbo Universal Remote Codes and Programming Instructions

jumbo universal remote setup guide

If you own a Jumbo universal remote and are looking for setup codes to program it, you are in the right place. This guide provides a comprehensive list of remote codes for popular models like Innovage, iWave, Emerson, Decibel Electronics (Item No. A17G2022), Sentry (RMC10 & RMC20), Harbor Freight (Model 66687), and other generic Jumbo remotes. For added convenience, I have also created a handy code finder tool to help you quickly locate the correct code for your device.

While most of these remotes use 3-digit codes, there are a few exceptions. Models such as the Harbor Freight Tools Item 61959 and the QFX REM-115 come pre-programmed with newer 4-digit codes. To make the programming process easier, I have included step-by-step instructions for both the direct code entry method and the auto code search method.

How to Program Jumbo Universal Remotes

There are two main methods to program a Jumbo universal remote: Direct Code Entry, which requires a specific device code, and Auto Code Search, which does not require any codes at all. Below, you will find clear, step-by-step instructions for setting up your Jumbo remote using both methods.

How to Program Jumbo Universal Remote with Code

To program Jumbo universal remote with code, use the Direct Code Entry method as follows:

  1. Turn on the device you want to control.
  2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH button until the red LED stays on.
  3. Press the device button for the device you wish to program (e.g., TV, DVD, VCR, etc.). The LED will flash once and stay lit.
  4. Enter the 3-digit code using the number buttons. If the code is valid, the red LED indicator will turn off. If it’s invalid, the LED flashes, so you need to repeat the procedure with the next code for your device.
  5. Press the Power button. If the device turns off, press it again. If the device powers on and all functions work correctly, you’ve found the right code. If not, repeat the process with the next code for your brand.

To program Jumbo universal remote without code, follow the Auto Code Search method as outlined below:

  1. Turn on the device you want to control (e.g., TV, DVD player, VCR).
  2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH button on your Jumbo remote until the red LED stays on, then release the button.
  3. Press the device button for the device you’re programming. The LED will blink once and remain lit.
  4. Press and release the POWER button repeatedly while aiming the remote at your device.
    • Wait about 2 seconds between each press to allow the device time to respond.
    • Continue this process until the device turns off. It may take several attempts to cycle through all possible codes.
  5. Press the ENTER button immediately after the device turns off to save the code.
  6. Press the POWER button again to turn the device back on.
    • If it powers on, the code has been successfully stored. Test other buttons (like volume, channel, or play) to ensure they work correctly. If not, repeat the process.

Notes:

  • If no buttons are pressed within 12 seconds after starting the setup, the CODE SEARCH feature will automatically turn off.
  • For newer models such as the Harbor Freight Tools Item 61959, QFX REM-115, or any Jumbo remote that uses the MUTE button instead of CODE SEARCH, start by holding the device button until the red LED stays on. Then, press the CH+ button repeatedly until the device turns off. Once it does, press ENTER to save the code.
