Sony Corporation produces household and professional appliances, game consoles and other products. Moreover, Sony is one of the largest media companies in the world, owning the Sony Music Entertainment record label and two film studios.

The company's greatest popularity in the world of technology was brought by the Playstation console, Vaio line of laptops and the already mentioned recording brand Sony Music Entertainment. Previously, the corporation's flagship products were portable players and mobile phones of the Walkman line.

Today we will talk about Sony Smart TV and, in particular, about remote controls for them.

How to choose a remote control for a Sony TV

  4. Find the encoding (codes for universal remote controls are provided below in the article), which will help in further control of the device.
  5. Get acquainted with the functionality and capabilities of the new remote control, study its layout, evaluate its convenience

By paying attention to all of the above nuances, you can avoid unpleasant moments when, after purchasing a device, the TV does not respond to it.

If it turns out that the problem is hidden specifically in the TV, in most such cases a simple reset to factory settings will help solve the problem.

You need to remember that it will also help to avoid troubles when working with the remote control after turning it on, which will help prevent the moment when the TV does not respond to remote control signals due to errors present.

Remote control on the phone

If necessary, all TVs can be controlled from a smartphone.

In order to make this possible, you must first install a special application on your mobile phone, which can be easily found on the Play Store or AppStore.

After this, you need to find the available encoding transmitted from the TV. If manual settings are used, the model, line, and series of the TV are determined independently.

The difference between remote controls and phones is that the latter do not need to be reset to factory settings, but there is a drawback - the remote control on a smartphone will not give full access to all features and functions.

How to disassemble the remote control

As practice shows, conventional remote controls can work poorly or completely fail due to clogging with dirt and dust. If this happens, you need to properly clean the remote control and all its components.

Naturally, in order to clean the remote control, you need to disassemble it first, doing this in a strictly established order.

This procedure must be carried out after a certain period of time as a preventative measure, since remote controls with touch controls are fundamentally different from push-button controls, reacting to every touch and lack of contact. Therefore, in order to properly disassemble the remote control before cleaning, you must do the following:

  1. Turn off the remote control before cleaning, thereby preventing disruption of its operating mode or individual functions
  2. Remove the battery or batteries that provide power to the device.
  3. Unscrew all the screws that are located on the back panel and that hold the entire structure of the remote control
  4. Disassemble in order all the modules inside, except for the sensor unit
  5. Carefully disconnect the keys and their contacts
  6. After all the above measures, clean the device
  7. Finally, you need to assemble the remote control back into working form and check it on the TV

Cleaning the device

You should dwell in more detail on such an item as directly cleaning the remote control. Then, when the remote control is completely disassembled, you need to thoroughly clean all parts and the case.

In this case, you need to use materials that do not contain moisture or other liquid. The best options are cotton swabs and wet wipes containing alcohol. These products help most effectively in the fight against dust and dirt, as practice shows.

After cleaning with napkins, the remote control must be completely dried without leaving any moisture inside.

Only after all the parts and elements of the remote control are dry can you assemble and begin testing the functionality of the device. As for the external parts, including the sensor, they only need to be cleaned with wipes.

Sony TVs and home theaters are distinguished by very good design details and excellent technical characteristics. This is especially true for sound quality, although, of course, calling the image produced by Sony TVs mediocre will not turn anyone’s lips either. The Sony remote control stands out from the general range of remote controls in the same way. Carefully designed ergonomics, impeccable design and trouble-free operation.

On the counter of our online store you can find both original Sony remote controls and non-original ones. According to statistics, the average service life of an original Sony remote control is 3.2 years. If we talk about a non-original remote control, then its service life on average is 1.4 years. From these statistics it is clear that the quality is completely adequate to the price. That is, the original remote control costs 3 times more, but will also last 3 times longer. Please note that when we talk about the service life of a Sony remote control, we mean the statistical average. This means that for some it breaks down after a couple of months, while for others it works for 6-7 years without the slightest problem.

To buy a Sony remote control, all you have to do is place your order right here on the website. But if you don’t want to fill out the form on the website and print your data, then you can call (495) 798-26-96. Our operators will always be happy to help you.

What to do to unlock the remote control

If your Sony remote needs to be unlocked, there are several options:

  1. Press and hold the “+” and “P” keys at the same time. After that, enter several identical characters. It could be "2222" or "7777". It is also worth trying to enter “1234”, and then press the “+” key again.
  2. When the code is entered and the “+” key is pressed, the LED on the remote control should light continuously. If this happens, you must press the key combination “+Volume” and “Menu”.
  3. The third step is to press any one button for 10 seconds, after which the remote control should work.

Do I need to buy a remote control from the same company as the TV?

This question is asked quite often; more than half of customers who choose a new remote control ask exactly this.

After all, there is an opinion that absolutely all remote controls are the same and differ only in the name of the manufacturer. And the fact that a certain brand of TV often requires a remote control of the same brand sometimes sincerely surprises buyers.

Yes, sometimes it happens within the same company that remote control models for different TVs can be interchangeable. But this does not always happen, and only a qualified specialist can determine whether a particular remote control is suitable for the TV. After all, sometimes a situation occurs when almost all functions work, except for some quite important ones.

There is a remote control that doesn't work

You need to look at the remote control and find the markings that are located on its body. This is the model name of this remote control. It should be noted that the TV and the remote control that comes with it will always have different markings.

Often, markings can be found on the front of the remote control, sometimes under the battery compartment cover or on the back cover. However, there are devices on which there are no markings.

In this case, you need to work with the TV markings. In any case, when buying a new remote control, it is important to take the current remote control with you to the store. This will help save both time and, which is also important, finances. Sometimes it is possible to repair and restore non-functioning remote controls, but this does not always happen.

What to do if the remote control does not work and how to fix it:

1.Search by remote control model.

This method is relevant if you still have an old remote control. Take a close look at the remote control body, front and back. Also, some remote control numbers are located under the battery compartment cover. The number consists of letters and numbers. See the example in the pictures below.

Enter the number you found on your remote control into the search bar on our website. Be sure to enter in Latin letters and follow dashes and spaces. Next, click "FIND". The website will display remote controls based on your request.

And the search will give you the remote control you need.

You don’t have a remote control, don’t have instructions and don’t know the name of the TV

That is, for example, on the TV there is no name of the company that produced it and there is no model marking. It also happens. If you have responsive neighbors, try asking them, for example, for television remote controls to test them on your device.

Some remote controls from different manufacturers are based on the same microcircuits and command systems and, as a result, are interchangeable. If this does not help, you can try taking a universal remote control and using auto-search to find the code to control your device.

Setting up a universal remote control for a Sony Bravia TV

First, you must make sure there are batteries in the remote. Often such devices are sold without a power source, which is why you have to purchase them separately.

The second step is to turn on the TV. On the remote control, turn on the desired mode, in our case – TV. Press this key until the light comes on. Next, we'll look at the process of setting up the three types.

Automatic

To auto-tune, enter the code - 9999. In this case, you need to hold down the last nine, hold it until the TV set-top box turns off. Then automatic channel selection will begin. The procedure itself can take up to 15 minutes.

This option is used if you cannot find the necessary codes for the TV. But, in the process of using the remote control, problems may arise, for example, a key conflict. That is, when one button programmed for a specific function spreads to other devices in the house. The problem cannot be corrected if you used the combination 9999.

For different brands of UPDU, the setup procedure will be different. For example, connect a universal remote control to a Sony Bravia TV when using the SUPRA model:
