1. Check and Replace the Batteries

A remote that suddenly stops responding likely has a power issue.

Steps:

Open the battery compartment and confirm the batteries are inserted correctly.

Replace with fresh, high-quality batteries.

Try adjusting the position slightly to reestablish the connection.

Test the charge level with a battery tester, if available.

Pro Tip:

Use a cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol to clean the battery terminals and remove oxidation.

2. Test the IR Signal Using Your Smartphone

Still not working with new batteries? The infrared transmitter may be the issue.

How to test:

Open your phone’s camera app.

Aim the remote’s IR sensor at the camera.

Press any button and watch for a flashing light on the screen.

If no light appears: The transmitter might be defective.

Tip:

Clean the IR sensor with a microfiber cloth and ensure nothing blocks its path to the TV.
