Hi,

The correct code - or whether there is any code - depends which version of Sky remote you have. This can be found on a sticker inside the battery compartment. The Sky info for your TV is somewhat confusing. Sky have an exact match for your TV model number but if you have the RC1600/00 remote, Rev 4 or Rev remote, they do not list any codes. If you have the Rev 8 remote, they list the following codes: 0206 1293 1280

However, despite listing codes for the Rev 8 they also state that "these codes are not available for your version of the Sky remote" - confused? I am.

So, I suggest you try the above codes regardless of which Sky remote version you have and if they do not work, also try the generic codes for LG TVs for each version of the Sky remote:

Rev 4: 0065 0742 0502 0672 0634 0136
Rev 6: Same as Rev 4
Rev 8: 1293 1177 1206 0206 0065

Basically, I suggest you try all of the codes above regardless of which version of Sky remote you have, including RC1600/00. There's a good chance one of them will control the volume and standby functions.

If none of the above codes work, please post back, let me know which version of the Sky remote you have and I will try to assist you further.

Regards,
BElectric

    Hi. Your appreciation is appreciated ;) Sorry these codes didn't work for you. You will need to buy a "Rev 9" Sky remote in order to use the same remote for both your TV and Sky box. This remote will definitely work with your TV and the correct code will be either 0206, 1293 or 1280. The new remotes are available from "TheDigiboxShop" (copy and paste link from my next message below) or just search for "Sky Rev 9 remote" on Google or whichever search engine you use. Please note there are some cheaper import copies available but I suggest buying a genuine Sky remote. Hope this helps. Regards, BElectric

    Please note: These listing states "Sky HD" but this actually means Sky, or Sky , or Sky HD. basically they work with all versions of Sky digibox. If buying one, be sure to check the button for the "Rev 9" version ( £0.85).

    Great. Thanks for letting me know. I thought you were already using a Rev 8, hence my suggestion to buy a Rev 9. Good to know that Sky's information is still as reliable as ever . . . they give your TV a code, then tell you it wont work with your remote even though it does. This is quite normal, so I always suggest people try the codes regardless of which version they have. I suspect Sky are aiming to boost their profits by selling people Rev 9 remotes they don't actually need. Nothing that Sky does - particularly with regard to squeezing more money out of every customer - surprises me.
