I went to the link yesterday but nothing happened with the codes. I entered a lot of them before giving up and trying the way I did in my post. I tried it again just now and it works. Can't thank you enough!
ps. I tried to access the code as instructed in your post...nothing came up on the screen after step 1 so I used the A button instructions as explained.
Thanks for noticing my post. If you read it again you we'll see the problem isn't with the code, the problem is when I go to connect to Remote Setup after pressing A on the remote, then saying Yes to Do you want to use your remote to control your TV ...
