Lost the manual for your ONN remote or struggling to get it to work with your TV, DVD Player, or other device? No worries – this guide will walk you through the process of setting up your Onn universal remote, step by step. Plus, we’ve also included a tool to help you search for the code for your device.
ONN Universal Remote Code Finder
Note: If your ONN remote control has a ‘Setup’ button, the 5-digit codes will likely work. If it has a ‘Program’ button, the 4-digit codes should work.
How to Program Your ONN Universal Remote
You’ll find three types of ONN remotes: one with a Program button, another with a Setup button, and the third without a number pad. Depending on your model, skip ahead to the right section below.
Method 1: With Setup Button
For remotes with the Setup button, follow the steps below:
- Power on the device you want to program (e.g., TV, soundbar, or DVD).
- Press the button on your remote that corresponds to the device you want to program. For example, press the TV button for a television, or the Audio button for a soundbar.
- Press and hold the Setup button until the TV button (or corresponding device button) lights up, then release the Setup button.
- Enter the 5-digit code for your device. You can refer to the Universal Remote Code Finder above or the remote’s manual for the correct code.
- Test the remote to see if all the buttons are functioning properly. If not, then repeat the steps with a different code this time.
Method 2: Without a Number Keypad
What if you have an ONN remote without a number pad? You might wonder, ‘How do I even enter the code for my TV?’ Don’t worry – just refer to the image below for a rough idea of which keys can be used as numbers.
Now that that’s taken care of, here’s the quick setup guide:
- Turn on your smart TV.
- Press the TV button.
- Hold the Setup button until the power button stays lit.
- Use the 5-digit code with the help of the above remote code finder.
Now test the remote to ensure all buttons are functioning properly. If the first code doesn’t work for your TV, repeat the process with the next code.

- Press and hold the Program button on your remote until the Power button lights up red.
- Press the device button. For example, a TV button for a television.
- Enter the 4-digit code for your device. You can refer to the Remote Code Finder tool above or your remote’s manual or visit the official ONN site for the correct code.
