Genie RC73 Remote will not pair to receiver
I was having issues with my Genie remote controlling the volume and other tv functions and due to my lack of experience with the issue I reset the remote from the settings tab on the tv. I have even reset it with the ‘981’ code. I have unplugged and reset the receiver itself but I CANNOT get the remote to reprogram to the box. I have tried ‘mute and select’ and ‘mute and enter’ and also the ‘961’ code but nothing I do will display the IR/RF message on the TV. When trying to pair, the remote will blink green for a few seconds then display a single red light at the end. Im assuming thats an error code. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I believe the remote is still good as it was just working yesterday.

What’s the receiver model?
Follow these steps to get IR/RF working:
Program remote manually for your HDTV or audio device

Im not home at the moment to get the model # but I did try the manual programming sequence with no luck last night. I never got a “Your remote is now setup for RF” on the TV screen.

The receiver model is crucial because that remote will only work in RF on Genie equipment like the Genie minis and Genie HD DVR (excluding HR34).

The remote was working on the box yesterday so I know thats not the issue. Was having issues with volume and I reset both the remote and receiver and now I cannot get it to program back to the receiver.
