VINABTY RM-DC355 Replacement Remote for Sony CD Players

The VINABTY RM-DC355 is a drop-in replacement remote that restores full control to compatible Sony CD players without programming.

If your Sony CD player remote is lost, damaged, or unresponsive, the RM-DC355 offers a simple, cost-effective solution. Designed to match the button layout and infrared signals of the original 1-476-132-11 remote, this VINABTY unit works with Sony models CDP-C5CS, CDP-CE375, CDP-CE345, CDP-CE245, and CDP-CE275. It uses two AAA batteries, requires no pairing or setup, and provides immediate control of playback, track selection, volume, and other common functions.

Will this remote work straight out of the box?

Yes — the RM-DC355 is pre-programmed to the same command codes used by the original Sony remotes listed in the compatibility notes. Insert two AAA batteries and aim the remote at the player to begin using it. There’s no need for custom programming, adapters, or software.

• Ready to use immediately with compatible models.
• No pairing, learning mode, or code entry required.
• Standard IR frequency matching the original Sony signals.

What buttons and features does the replacement remote include?

The VINABTY RM-DC355 mirrors the essential controls found on the original Sony remote, so you can operate playback and navigation just as before. Buttons are laid out for quick access to play/pause, stop, skip, search, programming, repeat, and numeric track entry for direct access.

• Playback controls: play/pause, stop, skip forward/back.
• Search and track number keys for fast navigation.
• Dedicated program and repeat functions for CD routines.

How long will the batteries last and what type do I need?

The RM-DC355 runs on two AAA batteries, which are widely available and easy to replace. Battery life depends on usage patterns and battery quality, but normal intermittent use should give months of operation from alkaline cells.

• Uses common 2 × AAA batteries (not included in most packages).
• Alkaline AAA recommended for longer life; rechargeables also work.
• Replace batteries when response becomes weak or intermittent.

How closely does this remote match the original in fit and finish?

The VINABTY unit aims to replicate the original remote’s ergonomics and button positions so functions feel familiar. The casing, key shapes, and IR emitter are positioned for reliable line-of-sight operation with the supported Sony players.

• Ergonomic housing sized for comfortable handheld use.
• Crisp, tactile buttons arranged for familiar navigation.
• Infrared emitter aligned for dependable signal transmission.
