GE programmable universal remote codes for televisions start with sequences such as 0001 for RCA models and 0101 for many Sony units. Audio systems follow similar patterns with entries like 1001 for basic receivers.
These codes enable control of power, volume, and inputs once the remote enters programming mode. The following sections aggregate verified codes into a master table and break down usage by device category for efficient setup across common brands.
GE Four-Digit Codes by Brand Family
Users need a consolidated reference when matching a GE remote to multiple devices in one household. The master table below organizes four-digit codes by category and brand family to reduce search time during initial programming. Each entry reflects standard GE code lists for televisions and audio components. Test codes in order until the device responds to basic commands like power toggle. Update the remote firmware if available before bulk entry attempts to avoid compatibility mismatches.
| Device Category | Brand Family | Code 1 | Code 2 | Code 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Television | RCA | 0001 | 0002 | 0003 |
| Television | Sony | 0101 | 0111 | 0121 |
| Television | Samsung | 0201 | 0211 | 0221 |
| Audio Receiver | Yamaha | 1001 | 1011 | 1021 |
| Audio Receiver | Denon | 1101 | 1111 | 1121 |
| Audio Receiver | Onkyo | 1201 | 1211 | 1221 |
GE Codes for RCA Sony Samsung Devices
High-success codes appear more frequently across user reports for specific device families. RCA television entries cluster around the 0000 series because those models share common infrared protocols with early GE hardware. Sony and Samsung units respond better to the 0100 and 0200 ranges due to updated signal timing in newer panels. Audio receivers require separate banks because their command sets differ from video devices in repeat rate and header length. Cross-reference the table above with the device manual to confirm the exact series before committing to one code set.
Execute Programming Steps for GE Remotes
Press setup button on the GE remote until the indicator light stays solid. Select device mode by pressing TV or AUX depending on the target component. Enter code sequence from the master table one digit at a time without pauses longer than two seconds. Point remote at the device and press power button to test response. Repeat with the next code in the same bank if the first attempt fails. Store the successful code by pressing the setup button again until the light blinks twice.
GE Codes for Samsung Television Sets
Samsung panels often lock out older infrared commands after firmware updates. Start with 0201 and move through the listed alternatives while the remote remains in TV mode. Hold the remote within three feet of the set during testing to maintain signal strength. Some 2018 and later models need an additional input command after power confirmation. Verify channel up and volume functions work before finalizing the code entry.
GE Codes for Yamaha Audio Receivers
Yamaha receivers accept the 1000 series codes but require the remote to remain pointed at the front panel sensor during the full sequence. Switch the GE remote to AUX mode first. Enter 1001 and test the mute function immediately after power confirmation. If volume control lags, advance to 1011 and repeat the test cycle. Keep the receiver powered on throughout the process to allow instant feedback on each command.
Manage Code Entry Issues on Denon Systems
Denon units sometimes ignore the first code attempt due to extended header requirements in their protocol. Clear the remote memory by holding setup for ten seconds before retrying the 1100 series. Test the input select button after power to confirm full integration. Persistent failures point to a low remote battery rather than an incorrect code. Replace the battery and restart the entry sequence from the beginning.
