Hi, I will be happy to assist you with your DISH Remote not working the new TV. You will need to reprogram your DISH remote to the new TV. You did not state what brand the TV is so I will link a page with all the codes for all the different manufacturers. The codes are three digits long and will be listed in the order in which they have had success in working. http://www.mydish.com/support/apps/remotecodes.aspx

Here is the procedure:

Remotes: Television Only
1. Turn the Television On.
2. Press and hold the clear TV Mode button for three seconds until the buttons on top light up. Release the TV Mode button and it will be flashing.
3. Enter the three-digit code using the buttons on the number pad.
4. Press the pound (#) button under the number 9.

Note: The TV mode light will flash three times.

Test functionality with the TV.

Return to Step 2 if the remote is not able to turn the TV On/Off, change the volume and mute the television and try the next 3 digit code on the list.

If you have any issues or additional questions, please feel free to e-mail me directly. Thank you!
