  If your Radio Shack Universal Remote cannot control other Plug 'N Power modules, there are several things to check. First, ensure that you have power to the AC outlet and the light or appliance is on. Try plugging another Plug ’N Power controller and the modules into the same AC outlet. If your controller is the only one you have, use an extension cord to plug the control center receiver and your other Plug ’N Power module into the same AC outlet. If the module still does not work, replace the module.

  If your Radio Shack Universal Remote isn't turning the control center receiver on or off, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the red light on the remote illuminates when you press a button. If not, the batteries in the remote might be weak, so replace them. Also, verify that the house code dials on both the remote and the control center module are set correctly and that the 1-8/9-16 setting on the remote is correct. Finally, confirm that the AC outlet has power and that the light or appliance connected to it is turned on.

  If the Radio Shack Universal Remote control center module isn't turning on or off using another type of Plug 'N Power controller, try plugging the control center receiver and the other Plug 'N Power controller into the same AC outlet. If it doesn't work in any AC outlet, even when connected to the same duplex (top and bottom) of the AC outlet, replace the control center receiver. If it works in some AC outlets but not in others, contact your local RadioShack store for help.
