I lost my LCI remote (the remote that operates all the doodads).

So 2 weekends ago we camped at Texas Motor Speedway during the unlimited offroad expo and I believe I left our remote either on the bumper of my truck, jeep or camper or possible laying on the power pedestal, either way I'm pretty sure it's gone for ever!

I didn't realize this until Thursday when we took it camping again and when we went to setup the remote was gone. This isn't really the end of the world, but it's a bummer and my outside switches for my stabalizers are finicky at best.

Has anyone found an app to replace the remote? My wife downloaded one last night called "OneControl" that supposedly will work any device on an rv. As long as you can find where the receiver is.

I'm also going to call a few places and see what a new remote would cost.

Why not contact your dealer, Forest River or the remote manufacturer Lippert?

No idea how or who can program the remotes. My 5er had one in the holder when I picked it up and another in the bag of information. Many months later tried to use the one in the holder to bring in the awning. I later found it turned on the landing gear lights when awning pushed and the awning worked when the main slide was activated. Finally charged the other one and found the items missing on the other and all worked as labeled.

Google is your friend!
Google lippert remote control
There are pictures of different ones.
Prices are all over the place.
Also some talk about how to program them.

Good luck!
I'm gonna have to take better care of mine!

So I just did a quick search on the interweb and the cheapest I found a new remote from a non sketchy source was about $210. I'm going to call funtown and see if they will tell me over the phone where the receiver is and I'm going to try the app first. If that don't work then I'll see about ordering a new remote. I feel the app might work, because my dad's vibe came with a tablet and the tablet had an app pre-loaded, so if anything I'll find out what app it is and try it.

Did you find how to program the remote? I'd like to clear and program the spare I have as otherwise it is useless.

I lost my remote. Found one on ebay. Pretty costly but you know how it goes, once you bought it you find your original. And so it goes.

In our Wildwood the receiver is behind the panel which is under the fridge.

I have an extra remote but stuck with it as only 1 charger. Going to program it like the other.....

Haven't had time to mess with the camper this week. I've been very busy with my 10u baseball team. However, tonight before practice I'm going to work on the camper to get it ready for this weekend (3 weeks in a row of camping, whoot whoot). While getting it ready I am going to see if I can sync my phone to the camper.

I contacted the dealership just a few minutes ago and they said the same thing that most of these units have the panel under the fridge. He said that some were under the kitchen sink mounted on a piece of wood by the exterior wall, but he said to start with the fridge first. I haven't seen anything under my kitchen sink that looks anything like a controls so I'm going to assume it's under the fridge.

The receiver is located under the stove.

Thanks, I looked under the fridge last night and it wasn't there. Which was a double whammy bummer, because as I was laying there trying to feel around under the fridge my toddler spilt juice all over me....lol At that point I had to go change and get ready for baseball practice.

I'm going to mess with it tonight after we get to the campground.

Well, Saturday I messed with it for a good while. I found the panel under the stove. I started the app and it asked me for the password, yet I couldn't find anything on the panel. The app then prompted me to look in the owners manual for the password, that it is supposed to be listed in there.... Went through all my paperwork on my camper and I have no info on the lippert system . I'm going to call the dealership and see if there is anyway to get that information.

To be continued.
