After you program with this remote, will the old remote still work as well? I have family members who won't want to learn something new!

The old remote will absolutely still work! You program the remote to work with the TV, not the other way around. So you can have multiple remotes per TV. :-)

Yes it just learns how the old remote controls the TV the old remote will still work just fine

The remote worked great as a replacement for my old one. All you would need to do is change the code to your setting.

If it lost it's programming I would suggest just going through the learning steps that are done initially. That is push the orange learning button on the back of the garage opener once rwhile holding the button down on the remote for 30 seconds. It should work then. Good Luck

It should just follow the programming instructions,also if you see that it works fine & then starts to act up after you change the battery the first time its the contacts on the corner of the battery they've become bent in to far,just lightly lift them up to make contact with the negative side of the battery disc this can also happen from keeping your keys in your pocket and sitting on them the pressure can squeeze the remote causing the battery to disconnect from the same contacts with a possible reprogramming needed so keep your instructions this will happen with any remote I hope this helps you it drove me crazy till I figured out what was happening,this is a good product its what you do to it that makes it screw up so be careful with it & you'll have it a long time

I don't know if it will replace a previous remote. Need to call an expert. But the instructions are included. However, I did have to make a call to Genie and they talked me through it and it works perfectly. Note: while there are 3 buttons on this remote, the only one we could get to work was the one on the RIGHT. We could never get the left nor middle button to perform. We only need one so we were happy.

If the serial numbers are the same as your old remote, and you are SURE that the batteries are actually good (brand new from the store), then it will work right away. If nothing is happening despite the afore mentioned certainties, then either the new remote is bad or your TV's remote sensor is is dead.

It will work. Just google for programming instructions. It is pretty easy. If you have other remotes, you have to reprogram them at the same time because they will be disabled when you add the new one.

Mine wouldn't do the auto program or the one where you point the old one at it and press all the buttons. I had to do it one button at a time, manually. As to how that works, I'm sorry but I can't remember exactly. I just remember fighting with the thing for a long time. This remote has now become nearly useless, as the main select button has to be mashed hard to get it to react, and the up/down selector ring is also barely functioning. It has also become very position sensitive and has to be pointed directly at the Dish box to work, and is slow even then. I have bought a new Sony RM-VLZ620 to replace it. Sorry I was not more help. If I knew then what I know now about the URC, I would have sent it back. You should too.

When I was looking for a remote I just put the name and model number in the search box and it showed me the one that went with the model I have and I ordered it. I took a chance that it would work and it did the first time I tried it. I did not have to program it. Good Luck

U can continue to use your old remote--this unit I used outside as an additional one when we went out & did NOT want to take the remote from the car w/us

Angela, it's very easy to program and will replace all of your remotes There is easy on-line help. If anything has remote control, this will take care of it. I love mine, go for it. Merry Christmas.

I had bought & returned a remote earlier that I could not program. This one went well after one minor glich and functions as well as the factory one it replaced. You need to read instruction carefully and from there you should be fine.

Did you every get an answer? my original remote is dead and I hate the qwerty keyboard. Let me know what information you find please

Yes. I purchased a replacement remote and looked up the instructions online. Very simple process.

Yes it will work fine. My wife has the orginial remote in her car and we lost the extra one we had during some years that I owned a car with a built in garage remote. I purchased one of these followed the programing instructions from my garage door opener and the new one works better than the orginial remote and I did not need to reprogram my wifes. Everything still worked fine after I programed the new remote

Yes it should work. My old remote was the exact same one just an older model.

It should still work. The new remote picks up the original signal from the garage door motor. It does not reprogram anything.
