The RM-y142 is a Sony remote control that is designed to work with Sony TVs and other Sony devices. It may not be compatible with an older Sanyo TV, as the codes used to program the remote are typically specific to each brand and model of TV.

However, you can try programming the remote using the Sanyo TV codes listed in the RM-y142 manual or by using the auto-code search feature. Here are the steps to program the remote using the auto-code search feature:

1. Turn on your Sanyo TV.
2. Press and hold the "Setup" button on the RM-y142 remote control until the red indicator light turns on.
3. Press the "TV" button on the remote to set it to TV mode.
4. Press and release the "Power" button on the remote. The red indicator light should blink once.
5. Press and release the "CH+" button on the remote repeatedly until the TV turns off. The red indicator light should blink with each press.
6. Press and release the "Setup" button on the remote to lock in the code. The red indicator light should turn off.
7. Test the remote to see if it controls the TV. If it doesn't work, repeat the process with the next code listed until you find one that works.
