Does this need to be programmed or something?

The seller said it was new and it does look it. Put in a new J battery that works another remote so I know the battery is good.

Any ideas folks?

IIRC, they were only intended to operate the Zenith cable converter. They're rather old and didn't have the capability to be used for other applications.
The old converters had an A/C receptacle to control the on-off functions of the set.

Worked for someone's TV in this thread:

The remote works great with my old portable and my newer 1999 27" Zenith, whose remote I photographed next to the Z-TAC, to see how they have evolved over 20 years.
