Remote I need to change batteries

If changing the batteries did not solve the problem, you could try resetting the remote. To do this, remove the batteries and hold down any button on the remote for about 5-10 seconds. Then, reinsert the batteries and try turning the remote on again. If the remote still does not work, it may be damaged and need to be replaced.

panic over what a possible dead battery in fob --change the battery

Should be able to just change them. I wouldn't go over a minute or two to make the change.

Change the batteries or you might need to buy a new remote

Is the remote battery dead? Or have you recently changed the battery in the remote?

If the first it needs a new battery.
If second. You may have taken too long to change the battery and the remote is no longer programmed to the car. you will need to take it and the car to it's dealership and have them reset it. It will cost.

The remote that came with the unit has a ROM (Read Only Memory) that does not expire when batteries are removed. Just place fresh batteries in the remote, and carry on.
If it is a general multi unit remote, it needs to be reprogrammed. You would need codes for the components you have to set up your remote.
When you change batteries in the remote, change 1 at a time so power is never all the way removed. (that does not apply to configurations where the bateries are 1 behind the other)

Hi there,

It is possible that you will need to re-program your remote control, it sounds as though the remote has lost it's settings. This can happen when changing batteries, usually a remote will retain the code for around ten minutes or so once the batteries have gone flat or have been removed, after that time it loses it's code. I assume the batteries are new so try re-programing the remote control for your tv with the correct code and hopefully this will work.

Hope this helps,

James

If changing the batteries did not resolve your issue with your remote, we may need to replace the remote. You might check to see if all batteries have the positive side facing down on the remote. If so, then call 1-800-333-3474, speak with Tech support. I hope this helps.

sometimes if the batter is of expired stock then also it does not work.also try to clean the contacts in the sockets where u insert the battery.if still does not works then its quite possible that the internal circuit of the remote has gone fasulty.so the remote now needs replacement.
