How to Program Your Device
Programming your Xfinity remote is a straightforward process that can be done in a few steps. You can program it using codes or without codes, depending on your remote model and TV brand.
To program your remote with codes, you'll need to find the correct code for your TV brand. You can use Xfinity's remote code lookup tool to find the code, or check the list of manufacturer's codes for your Samsung TV. For example, if you have an XR2 remote, you might need to enter the code 10812.
If you don't have a Setup button on your remote, you'll need to press and hold the Xfinity and Info buttons simultaneously until the light changes from red to green. This is a common method for pairing remotes that don't have a Setup button.
Alternatively, you can program your remote without codes by using the auto-code search feature. This method is often used for remotes that don't require a specific code, such as the XR 15 remote. To use this method, simply point your remote directly at the TV Box without obstructions and press the A button to start setup.
Here are the steps to program your remote without codes:
1. Make sure your remote is pointed directly at the TV Box without obstructions.
2. Press A on your remote to start setup.
3. Select "Remote Setup" on your TV screen.
4. When prompted, select "Yes" to let your remote control the TV's power and volume.
5. Confirm voice control pairing and then choose "Yes" for TV control.
Remember to test your remote's volume control to ensure it's working correctly. If you can adjust the volume with the remote, select "It Works!" If you can't control the volume with the remote, select "It Doesn't Work" and try again.
By following these steps, you can easily program your Xfinity remote to control your TV and other devices, making your viewing experience more convenient and enjoyable.

Troubleshooting and Resetting
If you're having trouble pairing your Comcast remote with your TV, the first thing you should try is cleaning the remote with a wet wipe. This can help get the buttons working properly again.
Dirty buttons can prevent the remote from responding properly, so give it a good wipe down.
If cleaning the remote doesn't work, you may need to change the batteries. Make sure to use the correct batteries for your remote, as using the wrong ones can cause problems.
Using the wrong codes is another common issue. If you're not sure what code to use, you can find the correct one using the online Remote Code Lookup tool.
If none of these steps work, you may need to perform a factory reset on your remote. There are different steps for remotes with a Setup button (XR11) and those without (XR15).
Here are the steps to reset remotes with a Setup button (XR11):
- Hold the "Setup" button until the LED turns green.
- Enter 9-8-1.
- When the green LED light blinks twice, your remote has been reset.
And here are the steps to reset remotes without a Setup button (XR15):
- Hold the "A" and "D" buttons until the light turns green.
- Enter 9-8-1.
- When the blue LED light blinks three times, the remote has been reset.
After you've performed the factory reset, you'll need to re-pair your remote and TV box. Your TV box must be activated before it can be paired again.
Code Lookup and Manual Setup
To pair your TV with your Comcast remote, you'll need to find the correct code for your TV brand. Consult the paperwork that came with your Xfinity remote, visit the Xfinity remote control webpage, or use the Xfinity Remote Code Lookup tool online to find the correct code.
You can also use the Xfinity Remote Code Lookup tool, which is a streamlined process that eliminates the guesswork of manually scrolling through codes. Access the tool through your web browser and search for the specific code that corresponds with your television brand and model.
To find the correct code, you'll need to turn on the TV you wish to control, press and hold the 'Setup' button on your Xfinity remote until the LED at the top changes from red to green, and enter the four or five-digit code using the number pad. Upon correctly entering the code, the TV should power off, indicating a successful programming.
Once you've found the correct code, press the TV Power button on the remote. If the TV turns on, you have successfully programmed your remote to control your TV.
Here are the steps to follow when using the Xfinity Remote Code Lookup tool:
- Locate the TV brand and model you want to control.
- Enter the four or five-digit code using the number pad.
- Press the TV Power button on the remote to test the code.
Remember to press and hold the "Setup" button until the LED indicator turns green, signaling the remote is ready to be programmed.
Expand Your Potential with Additional Devices
Your Xfinity remote is capable of more than just controlling your TV. Think of the convenience when a single remote tames your soundbar's roars.
For devices beyond TV, soundbars, and DVD players, refer to the Xfinity support page for further guidance. Each device integration follows a similar pattern.
Identify the device code, enter setup mode, introduce the code, and verify functionality. This process is the key to successfully pairing other devices.
The settings menu often holds answers to questions about customizing your remote or accessing advanced features. Additional device controls can be added, adjusted, or set up for use here.
Stride into a clutter-free zone where a single remote awaits your command.
Manufacturers and Compatibility

Xfinity offers a Remote Code Lookup tool on its website, but you can also find the codes in this article. The codes are specific to your remote model, so make sure to check the correct one for your device.
For example, if you have an XRA, XR5, XR11, or XR15, the code 12051 is likely to work. If you have an XR2 or a Digital Adapter remote, try 10812 first.
Here are some common codes for different models:
