I bought a second wii remote it is fully charged but it flashes several blue lights then switches itself off! please help

The flashing lights likely means the controllers are not synced to the Wii. Syncing them to the Wii is really easy, luckily

Generally, you can find the sync button under the battery cover on accessories, which should be a small red button. Look around your remote for it.

After you find your sync button on your remote, find the one on the Wii. It is above the SD slot, and you will have to pull open the cover to see it, which is the little rectangular cover on the front of the Wii right underneath the power and reset buttons. The sync button is the little red one.

Once you've found both buttons, hold them both down at the same time for about 3 seconds, then let go and the two should sync with each other. You only need to do this once and you should be fine.

they are fully charged when blue

you do have rechargeable remotes right? And the light only goes to red if you are not connected to the internet or were connected but unplugged it. i use a store bought charger that came with a rechargeable battery panel that plugs into the remote. so if i take the battery cover off the batteries are attached to it. but that is just me i don't know about you. hope i helped. If i didn't, post a new problem that tells the steps that you take to try to charge them.

Hope this helps

Try these steps!


1. Insert a Wii Balance Board compatible game disc in the Wii console.


2. Use the Wii Remote to select the Disc Channel from the Wii Menu, then select "Start" to begin the game. Press the A Button to bypass the wrist strap screen.


3. Open the small SD Card slot cover on the front of the Wii console.
4. Remove the Battery Cover on the bottom of the Wii Balance Board.
5. Press and release the SYNC button on the Wii Balance Board. The blue light on the board will start blinking.
6. Press and release the red SYNC button on the Wii console while the blue light on the board is still blinking.
7. The blue light will stop blinking and stay on steady once the synchronization is complete.

please leave a good rating and testimonial if you appreciate my help. THNX

The Wii-mote probably just needs to be synchronized to your Wii. Open the battery compartment on the back of your remote and open the front SD card slot on your Wii. Push the red SYNC button on the Wii and then the little red button on your Wii-moteand it should sync to your console.

Hi,

Thanks for using FixYa!

If the blue light on your Wii controller doesn't light up, its possible that it ran out of battery charge. If you think your battery is fully charged. try to buy a set of disposable battery and see if they will work. If they do work, it means your rechargeable batteries have gone bad.

Have a great day.

The blue light means the power is on to the charging station,The red light means they are charging.

put new batteries in them

Well, I don't have a Wii myself but I did some checking and found this. Hope it helps.

When you first get a second Wii remote, you have to press the red button inside the battery compartment and you press the red button by the Wii's SD Card slot simultaneously. Then you turn on the game and you press the Wii menu button. Go to controller settings and select reconnect remotes (can't remember if that's the exact words, but it's something like that). Next you hold 1 and 2 on the first remote, then hold 1 and 2 on the second remote. And that should do it.
