Direct replacement for RCA RTU5540-D

This infrared remote is a direct replacement for the original RCA RTU5540-D unit. It replicates every button and function of the factory remote. The device arrives pre-programmed with the original codes. Simply insert two AAA batteries and it is ready to operate.

Suits owners needing a like-for-like spare

It suits owners who want an exact functional duplicate without learning curves or setup menus. Households that need to control multiple device types from one handset should look elsewhere, as this unit supports only a single device. Buyers wanting radio-frequency or Bluetooth control will not find those features here.

Ready to use after battery installation

Installation consists only of opening the battery cover and fitting the supplied AAA cells. No pairing, code entry or programming steps are required. The most common issue is inserting the batteries with reversed polarity, which prevents the remote from powering on.
