Troubleshooting the AR ARRS05G Universal Remote Control
Why isn't my brand listed in the code list for the ARRS05G?

Please try the Code Search method:

To search for your device’s code:

  1. Make sure your device is on (not in standby mode).
  2. Press the device key on this remote for the device you want to operate.
  3. Press and hold SET until the device key blinks twice (the red indicator blinks once, then twice).
  4. Press 9 9 1. The device key blinks twice.
  5. Press POWER.
  6. Aim the remote at the device you want to control. Press CH+ over and over, until your device turns off (every time you press the CH+ key remote sends out a POWER signal from the next code contained in the memory). You may have to press this key many times (up to 150 times) so you'll need to be patient. If you skip past a code, you can go to the previous code(s) by pressing the CH– key. Remember to keep pointing the remote at your device while pressing this key.
  7. As soon as your device turns off, press and hold SET until the device key blinks twice to store the code (the red indicator blinks twice).
  8. Turn your device back on and try all the remote’s functions to ensure they operate properly.
  9. Please read pages 6-7 of the user manual below for more information.
Why won't the ARRS05G operate my device(s)?
  • Try all the codes listed for your brand.
  • Try the search method described above.
Why isn't the ARRS05G performing commands properly?
  • You may be using the wrong code. Try repeating the Setup using another code listed under your brand or start the search method over again to locate the proper code.
Why is the ARRS05G having problems changing channels?
  • Enter the channel number exactly as you would on your original remote.
  • By default, channel control is locked to the cable box or satellite receiver regardless of which mode you're in.
  • See page 13 of the user manual below to see how this can be changed.
Why won't video record using the ARRS05G?
  • As a safety feature on this remote, you must press the Record key twice.
Why isn't the ARRS05G responding after pressing a key?
  • Make sure you are using new batteries and are aiming the remote at your device.
Why isn't the device key blinking on the ARRS05G when I press a key?
  • Replace batteries with 4 fresh, new AAA alkaline batteries.
