V6 Remote won't mute my Sharp TV

Hey gang.

I bought a SHARP 32FH8KA recently and paired my V6 remote with it. None of the Sharp codes worked so had to go through the whole process that involves inputting 0999 in place of the code and pressing channel up until the TV turns off.

All works OK apart from the mute button which does not repsond at all.

Is it just a case of bad luck or can the mute button be seperatley coded somehow?

    Hi Mobes

    None of the Sharp codes worked so had to go through the whole process that involves inputting 0999 in place of the code and pressing channel up until the TV turns off.

     Don't just accept the first code that seems to work when using the 0999 method.  Often they are only partial matches and continuing testing using 0999 results in a fuller match.

    Enter the code 0999 to access the TV code database – the LED will flash green twice.

    3. Press channel up until a code turns off the TV – the LED will flash green each time a code is sent.

    4. When the TV turns offrelease channel up and press standby on the remote to turn the TV back on.

    5. Press vol +/- and mute to check that the remote is working with your TV. If they don’t, continue to search using channel up until the next code turns off the TV, and repeat steps 4 and 5.

    6. When the Volume and Mute keys work, press OK to store the code. The LED will then flash green twice.

      Hey Newapollo and thanks for the advice!

      I just presumed the first one was it so that’s really helpful thank you!
