If you have having Cox remote and need to synchronize it to a new device or are not able to operate your devices effectively, then you have to reset your Cox remote. Cox remote programming is quite easy and can often take not more than a few minutes to complete. Below is a guide on how to reprogram your Cox remote to work with your devices easily.
Things You'll Need:

- Device that the remote control will be used to operate (TV, cable box, DVD player, etc.).
- Device codes can be obtained from the internet or from the manual provided when purchasing your Cox remote.

It is important to note that before you begin the process of reprogramming your Cox remote, you must first ensure that the equipment you are trying to operate – be it a television set, cable box, DVD player, etc. – is on. The remote may be required to receive signals from the device during the reprogramming process.
Step 1: Find the Code for Your Device
You’ll require the particular programming code for the make and model of the gadget that you wish the Cox remote to control. Code lists are often available at the Cox support site or in the manual provided along with your remote. Other remotes also have the codes written on the surface of the battery compartment.
In case there is more than one code for the brand of your device, then you might have to try out which one is effective for controlling a certain model.
Step 2: Place your Cox remote into programming mode
To start programming your Cox remote:
1. The Mode button above will light twice if you hold the Setup button and do not release it.
2. To input numbers 9-9-1, press the buttons numbered on the keypad. If done correctly, the Mode button will blink twice more. This will let you know that you are now in programming mode.
Step 3: Device Code
More particularly still, use the numbered buttons to enter your device’s particular 4, 5, or 6-digit programming code when the remote has been switched into programming mode. Upon entry of the code, the Mode button will blink twice.
Step 4: Practice It
Lastly, check whether the reprogramming process was successful by pointing the Cox remote at the device and pressing the power and volume buttons.
- If your device turns on/off and the volume buttons work, then your remote is successfully reprogrammed and it is ready for use!
- If the remote does not control the device, you should repeat the process with another programming code from your list of codes for your device.
