bournemouth Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 We just bought at Walmart a GE Universal remote that is working on our Shaw box - just in case you can't find someone to clean the one you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it pretty easy to set up? Our Shaw remote is getting very testy in its old age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a good piece of news to know, because universally almost no remote is capable of taking the Shaw codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may involve dismantling the unit and cleaning the contacts on the motherboard. I do this frequently with my keyfob for the car, and then glueing tin foil on the motherboard where the buttons go....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Shaw code was one of the many codes listed with this remote. GE Pro model 24480 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 I bought Shaw remotes from a third party seller on Amazon. Seem to be the originals and they work fine. Also got boxes at the same place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cedros Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Teleservicio is on the south side of the carretera in San Juan Cosala at #43A. If you are coming from the east you will see a large metal microwave tower. The service place is just west of the base of this tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
