Check the battery, check if it is broken, check if it is the right remote and though it is a rare case check if it is your cell phone that you try to switch on the cable.
What are the possible universal remote codes for a Cisco 4640 cable box

what is the code to program a RCA remote and a motorola cabel box
You can always use a store-bought remote control, but you may lose some features of the cable remote.
If the remote that needs to be replaced is the one that came with your cable box then you can go to your local cable office, take your old one with you and exchange it for a new one. Your other option is to purchase a universal remote that would work on all of your set-up. This is what you will have to do if the remote that has gone bad is the remote to your television or dvd player. You may have to call your cable company after you pick up the remote and have them help you program it so that it will work on all the electronics.
Because you need a cable box that delivers the signal in a format compatible with your TV. Call your cable company, explain the problem, make them send you out a cable box that will work. After all, you pay for Cable TV., right ?

What is the remote code for an Evolution DMS 1004HD-CA Set top box
I purchased a Philips model# SRU5107WM17 remote and had same problem with my Mediacom cable/dvr. Could not find the codes in the in package nor on the Philips website. I had to do some research. Not sure what brand of cable box you have but I have PACE and the Motorola codes worked for my Pace cable/dvr box. The code I used was 1077. If Motorola codes don't work, the Scientific Atlanta codes work for some Pace cable/dvr boxes. It is a shame that between Mediacom and Philips don't help customers out better.
Well, yes you can, BUT..... If you are using a universal remote, then if they are not the same brand TVs then the codes you enter will not work unless you enter the code each time. Each brand of TV has a different code to use them on. If you are talking about your cable or fios, or dish remote, then the remotes will work with any set top box (meaning the box from the company). BUT, most cable remotes turn up and down the volume on the actual TV using the "brand code" I spoke about earlier. So worst case is that you can use it but not increase the volume on the TV. If you want to control the Cable volume, then in the settings of the cable box, there is a setting for volume, you can toggle it between fixed or variable.
Use the TV remote to change the TV back to the cable box.
