Tevion TV Remote Codes and Auto Search Method

If your Tevion remote isn’t talking to your TV, you don’t need the original manual—you just need the right code and a clear setup process. This guide cuts out the noise and gives you the working codes for major brands and the exact steps to program your device immediately.

Top Tevion TV Codes (Most Common Brands) List

For 90% of users, the code you need is in this list. Tevion remotes (often sold by Aldi/Medion) frequently use standard 4-digit code sets.

Note: If your remote uses 3-digit codes, try removing the leading zero (e.g., try 037 instead of 0037).

How to Program Your Tevion Remote

There are two main methods to pair your remote. Start with Method A if you have a code from above. If none work (or your brand isn’t listed), use Method B.

Method A – Direct Code Entry (Fastest Way)

  1. Turn on the device you want to control (TV, DVD, etc.).
  2. Press and hold the SETUP button (sometimes labeled CODESET, or MAGIC) until the small LED light on the remote turns on and stays lit.
  3. Press the Device Button briefly (e.g., TVDVDSAT). The LED should blink once and stay on.
  4. Enter the 4-digit code using the number pad.
  5. Test the remote: The LED should turn off. Point it at your TV and press POWER or VOL+.
    • Success? You are done.
    • Failed? Repeat the steps with the next code in the list.

Method B – Automatic Code Search (No Code Required)

Use this if you cannot find a working code. It takes longer but scans every code in the remote’s memory.

  1. Turn on your device.
  2. Press and hold the SETUP button until the LED light stays on.
  3. Press the Device Button (e.g., TV) once.
  4. Point the remote at the device and press the CH+ (Channel Up) button repeatedly and slowly.
    • Tip: Press it once every second. Do not rush, or you might skip the correct code.
  5. Stop immediately when the device turns off or changes channel.
  6. Press the ENTER or SETUP button once to save the code.

Tevion Remote Codes for Other Devices

If you are setting up a home theater or auxiliary device, try these common codes.

  • DVD Players:
    • Sony: 0533, 0864, 1033
    • Samsung: 0490, 0573, 0199
    • LG: 0591, 0741, 0869
    • Philips: 0503, 0539, 0646
  • Satellite/Cable Boxes:
    • Sky/Sky+: 1175, 1662, 0847
    • DirecTV: 1377, 0392, 0566
    • Dish Network: 0775, 1775

Troubleshooting Tevion Universal Remote Problems

  • The code works for volume but not the menu: This is a “partial code.” The remote found a code that shares some signals with your TV but not all. Go back to Method A and try the next code in the list for your brand.
  • LED flashes rapidly then turns off: This usually indicates an invalid code entry or a timeout. Restart the process and enter the digits more steadily.
  • Remote is unresponsive after programming: You may have locked the remote into a “search mode.” Remove the batteries for 60 seconds, press the power button to drain residual power, and insert fresh batteries to reset it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I identify my specific Tevion remote model?

Look inside the battery compartment. You will often see a model number like MD 80383MD 41169, or UR 4200. While specific models have unique features, the programming method (holding ‘Setup’) is standard across almost all Tevion/Medion remotes.

My TV brand is not listed in the code table. What do I do?

Use Method B (Automatic Search). Tevion remotes contain hundreds of codes for obscure brands (like Bauhn, Bush, or Grundig) that aren’t always documented in short lists but are present in the chip’s memory.

Can I control my Fire TV or Roku Stick with a Tevion remote?

Generally, no. Tevion remotes use Infrared (IR) technology. Most modern streaming sticks (Fire Stick, Roku Stick) use RF (Radio Frequency) or Bluetooth. However, if your TV has HDMI-CEC enabled, you can use the Tevion remote to control the TV, which then passes commands to the streaming stick via the HDMI cable.

Conclusion

If your remote is physically damaged or the buttons are unresponsive even after a reset, the internal contacts may be worn out. In this case, purchasing a modern “One For All” universal remote is often more cost-effective than trying to repair an aging Tevion unit.
