Here are the 100% percent working Directv remote codes for Samsung TV. Your DirecTV DVR receiver remote will work well on any model of Samsung smart and non-smart TVs. So, in case your original TV remote won’t work, then do not worry.

Genie remote has a universal feature, and there are 4-digit codes for almost all the well-known TV brands in the world like Vizio, Panasonic, LG, Samsung, TCL, Westinghouse, etc.

When I lost my Samsung remote control, I tested the DirecTV Genie remote with my TV. Got the codes from the official website.

There are not many codes. 12051 is the DirecTV remote control code for your Samsung TV. The same can be used when you program any model number remote even the Genie remote.

Some other codes that you can try are

  • 54000 [5-digit codes]
  • 0101 [For very old models remotes]

When we use some other universal remotes like RCA, GE, One for all, ONN, etc, there is separate code for different versions of the remote model. Here you don’t mess up with the different codes. Whatever the remote you are using whether it is Genie or DirecTV white remote control, the code is the same.

When it comes to Samsung TV models, there are a lot of models labeled with characters and digits.

The most popular models numbers of your TVs are

We know there are many more model number Directv remotes like RC-73,  RC-72, RC-71B, RC-71, RC-66, RC-65, RC-64, etc, and the Samsung TV Directv remote code 12051 will work with all these model numbers.

How To Program Directv Remote To Samsung TV?

Step 1: Enable Programming Mode

First, you need to turn your Directv remote into the programming mode for TV. Just press the “TV” device button on the remote control. Or slide the button to the right to make your Directv remote programmable to your TV.

Point the remote to the TV, and then press and hold the “MUTE + SELECT” button until the light on the remote blinks twice.

Step 2: Input the code

Enter the code 12051 that we found using the number keys, and the light will flash twice and stop. If the given code is not working, then only move to try with another code.

Step 3: Test your remote

Test the Volume button whether it is working perfectly. if not then enter another code.

This method is called manual programming.

One another method is the auto code search method.

The auto code search method – On-screen pairing

Let me show you an alternative method. Here you don’t need to find the code, but the remote control itself finds the right code for your TV. By the way, I recommend you manually program the remote to get rid of errors.

Follow the steps here

Turn ON your Samsung TV, and make sure that the DirecTV DVR box is connected to the TV.

Then point the remote to the TV. Then press the Menu button on the remote, so that a “settings tab” will be visible on the screen.

Then go to the Remote control option and then select the “pair or program remote control” option.

And then in the box provided, type the model number of your TV, after entering the character, it will show all the TV models of your Samsung TV brand. Then select the model from the list. Your TV will get paired with the remote automatically.

Now test all the buttons on the remote pointing to the TV. Especially check the volume button and channels buttons since we are frequently using those keys on our remote control.

What to do when the provided code is not working with my remote?

When the above-mentioned codes are not working, you have to go to find the right code using some advanced methods. Finding the proper code based on the exact TV model number and the remote model number will do. So, first of all, you have to know both the TV and remote’s model numbers.

I have compiled some of the DirecTV remote reset and troubleshooting tips that will help you to fix your remote.

How to get the TV model number?

The model number of Samsung TVs will be denoted in the TV body itself. Just look at the backside portion of the TV, or you can get the TV model number from your TV brochure or warranty card. Just note down the model number.

Then How to get the remote model number?

The model number will be denoted in the top right corner of your remote. the model numbers like RC-73, RC-74, etc.

Then we use the lookup codes directly from the official website.

Go to the URL https://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/remote_codes2

Then select the remote model number from there and will be redirected to a page where you can select the TV brand and the model number.

After selecting the brand name of the TV, enter the TV model number carefully and get the specific device code. The codes will be listed on the page when you enter all the details properly. Not down all the codes from there and use them one by one when pairing the remote.

Conclusion

Programming may be easier or more difficult. Try both methods. When you don’t get the code and are not paired to your TV, then try the on-screen method. DirecTV on-screen instructions will help you to complete the programming of your remote control. I have tried both methods. I hope you too can program your Samsung TV to DirecTV remote using the given codes. If any issue happens, let’s discuss it in detail. Just share your issue in the comment box.
