Sky Remote Codes For LG Smart TV (2024)

If you own a Sky Q or an older Sky+ box and an LG-branded television, you may have noticed that you need to switch between remotes to control each device. It can be inconvenient and may lead to misplacing one of the remotes.

Fortunately, you can program your Sky remote to control your LG Smart TV, making it a universal remote for both devices. It saves you time and hassle, as you only need to use one remote to turn your TV on and off, change channels, adjust the volume, switch inputs, and access most of the features and functions of your LG TV.

This guide outlines step-by-step instructions on how to program your Sky remote to control your LG TV. It’ll also provide Sky remote codes for LG Smart TV that you’ll need for the programming process.

Pairing Sky Q Remote Codes with LG Smart TV

Five versions of the Sky Q remote currently exist, including the original one, the old-style Accessibility remote, the touch remote, and the new Sky Q remote with voice control. Regardless of which one you have, pairing it with your LG Smart TV is straightforward, and you won’t even need to deal with Sky remote codes. Simply follow these steps:

Original Sky Q / Sky Q Accessibility Remote

  • Press the Home button on your Sky Q remote. It’ll lead you to the Sky Home screen if you aren’t already there.
  • Next, navigate to the bottom of the Home screen and select the Settings
  • Scroll to the Setup tab on the left-hand side, then choose Remote Control in the following submenu.
  • Select the remote you’re using from the list and click “Control your TV”. After that, choose LG from the TV brand list.

  • Now click where it says, “Find it for me”, so the Sky Q box can determine your particular LG TV model.
  • On the next wizard screen, press and hold the 1 and 3 buttons on your Sky Q remote simultaneously for 2 seconds, then enter the remote code outlined in Step 2 of the wizard.

  • Check if the Sky Q remote has paired to your TV by pressing the Volume Up / Down buttons and seeing if that adjusts the TV volume. If that works, click Yes and follow the remaining on-screen prompts to finish the pairing process.

However, if it doesn’t, click “No, try another” and repeat the above steps till you can control your LG TV with the Sky Q remote.

If none of the prompted remote codes works, try this: Press and hold the 7 and 9 buttons together until the remote’s top indicator light blinks four times, which resets the remote to its factory state. Now try the steps highlighted above once again.
