Default Help! Need Sansui TV/VCR Remote or Codes

Hi, all. I have a Sansui CLD0065 LCD 6" TV/VCR unit. It's a neat little
unit and it works fine. Alas, the person I bought it from didn't have the
remote. When I got home, I discovered that many functions, including
record, can only be done from the remote! There isn't even a record button
on the machine.

I bought a universal remote that supposedly could run this machine, and it
does, but it has no tape speed button (and the machine is currently stuck
in SP), and the volume control codes on it don't work.

Does anybody have a remote for this unit? Also, I have Omniremote for Palm
(the learning remote software program), so I could get by with a database
with the codes for this remote, instead of the real thing, if someone has
that. I couldn't find one on the internet.

Any help is MUCH appreciated. I really like this little TV/VCR, but I
can't do much with it without the remote or the codes.

Thanks!

Sincerely,
Michael

You will need to get in touch with the parts department of Sansui, or one of
their dealers and order an original remote. The universal remotes cannot
work all the functions. The learn mode is able to by taking a data reading
from the IR diode and writing this to its memory. You would have to have a
manual data code entry capability on your remote in order to put in the
codes.

As for the actual codes for these devices, this is something that is not
even in the service manuals of these units. The universal remote
manufactures buy the code table information from the original manufactures
under specific agreements.

Post the FCCID# off the back. Someone may know the real manufacturer of the
unit. If they didn't use a custom code for Sansui, it'll probably be way easier
to get one from the "real" factory, or another brand, such as Phillips, Sears,
whatever, all you need is their model #. This can be tricky, but it gives you
another avenue to find it.

Incidentally, if you have the universal now, try the codes for Funai,
Broksonic, Phillips, Sears and any brand name you recognize as an old Hifi
audio brand, like Marantz, Fisher. If one works, I'm not saying it'll be easier
to get, but if you got more options you're more likely to hit.

I'd also give eBay a shot, people do sell broken stuff there, so if you find
one with a broken screen, you should not only be able to get the remote, but
alot of spare parts, maybe even an extra battery and charger.(I did kinda
assume it's AC/DC) Unfortunately if the screen is broken, the lamp is possibly
broken too, but maybe not.
