LG Split AC Replacement Remote For PS-Q18TNXE1 by Woniry

This Woniry replacement remote works with LG split PS-Q18TNXE1 and window air conditioners in the 36K series, including model code AKB74955605.

COMPATIBLE MODELS:

AC Models : PS-Q18TNXE1, etc..

Remote Models :AKB74955605, AKB74075602, AKB74955617, AKB75215401, AKB75415306, AKB75415310, etc..

Suitable for LG split AC units (1 ton, 1.5 ton, 2 ton) and window cassette models. The 36K designation refers to a common control protocol LG used across multiple years.

What is in the box: one remote. Batteries (two AAA) are not included.

How to use it: pop in two AAA batteries (not included). Point at the AC indoor unit sensor and press a button. That is the whole setup. No pairing needed since this is an infrared remote.

Battery life runs about 8 to 10 months under typical daily use. All essential functions are present: power, mode (cool/heat/dry/fan), temperature up and down, fan speed, swing, timer, sleep mode, and the 4-in-1 button (jet/energy saving/auto clean depending on your AC model).

One practical note: if your original remote had a display panel showing the set temperature, this replacement does not have a screen. The AC itself will beep or flash to confirm your commands, but you won't see a readout on the remote. Most users find this a non-issue since the AC panel shows the temperature anyway.

If your LG AC was made before 2010 or is an older ducted central unit, double-check the original remote code before ordering. The 36K series became standard from around 2012 onwards. Residential split and window units from 2012 to 2024 are covered.

FAQ:

Q: Will this work with my LG inverter split AC?

A: Yes, if your original remote was a 36K series code (check the back label). Inverter and non-inverter models both use the same remote protocol.

Q: Does it have a light button for the AC display?

A: Yes, the display/LED button turns the indoor unit display on or off.

Q: My AC is 1.5 ton 3 star. Is tonnage rating relevant for the remote?

A: No. Tonnage and star rating do not affect remote compatibility. Only the remote model code matters.

Q: Can I use this on a window AC?

A: Yes, LG window units with the 36K remote code work fine with this replacement.

Q: What if my original remote code is not in the list above?

A: Check the original remote back label. If it says 36K anywhere, this will work. If it is a different series (like AKB73) or older, this one may not be the right match. Message us on Instagram @woniry_remote_house with your AC model number and we can confirm.
