How to connect your new TV to Dish network using the remote code?

Now, here are the steps you will need to follow in order to actually connect your Dish network remote to your TV once you have the correct remote code:

1. Turn your new TV on either by directly pressing the power button on the TV itself or using the TV specific remote (not the Dish network remote, since that’s clearly not possible yet).
2. On the Dish Network remote control, press and hold the TV Mode button for three seconds until all the Mode buttons light up. The TV mode button is at the top of the remote, and just says “TV”.
3. On the Dish Network remote control, input the 3 digit code using the numeric buttons on the remote. Then press the pound button (the “#”) just once. Once you do this, the top buttons will flash red three times.
4. Now you can test to see if the Dish network remote operates the new TV – try out the volume control, the power button and the mute button.
5. If the Dish remote still does not work with your new TV, then go ahead and try step 2 again. If you are unsuccessful again, then try using a different 3 digit code from the page we mentioned earlier.
