Is the Sky Q remote programming guide correct?
“To program your secondhand replacement Sky Q remote for your box and TV, hold down the Channel Up and Down keys until the Red LED blinks twice, then enter the setup code for your TV. For the Sky Q box, hold down the TV Power and SKY Power keys until the Green LED blinks, then follow the on-screen instructions.”
Summary
Holding the Channel Up and Down buttons until the red LED blinks twice to set up a replacement Sky Q remote is accurate. However, programming the Sky Q box does not involve holding the TV Power and SKY Power keys for a green LED blink; pairing the box uses other button combos (such as 1 & 3 or 4 & 6) and the red LED, so the green‑LED instruction is incorrect.
