Wii remotes I have 2 remotes - yesterday the first remote stopped altogether now the second one will not respond on the plus & minus buttons - although all other buttons are ok - this happened whilst playing Zelda i have tried in another game and the buttons seem to work ok - please help - it was working ok yesterday

Return your Pilot to where you had the recall work done and give them the opportunity to complete the job to your satisfaction.

Did you figure out why the ac wasn't responding to the remote? I am having the same problem. I just cleaned out the filters but it's still not responding to the remote. I have already tried reset button in the remote, which didn't help. I am pretty sure that the remote is not out of battery.

I would try to re-sync the controller to the console.
1. Power on Wii
2. remove battery cover from wii remote; press sync button on remote, will cause LED's on remote to blink.
3. Press the sync button on the console (it is located in the memory card holder on the front of the console)
4. The remote is connected once the LED stops blinking. The lit LED indicated what player # the connected controller refers to.

If you are still having trouble then delete the configuration info first and then re-sync the controller to the Wii.
Do this by holding the SYNC button on the console for 15 seconds after turning the unit on (once you see the health and safety screen). After you do this you will need to re-sync the controller individually.

It also warns of bright light sources like sunlight near the sensor bar, highly reflective surfaces (mirros, etc.) behind the sensor bar, sources of infrared radiation (portable heaters or fireplaces) or radio interference from cordless phones, cell phones, etc. as possible causes of interference. See pages 22, 32, 34 of your Wii owner's manual for full information, or call 1-800-255-3700 if you are still having difficulty.

The flashing blue light shows that the TV is receiving I.R. from the remote but doesn't mean that the signal being received is recognized by the Samsung. If you have a "universal" remote then your TV code may need to be re-entered/reprogrammed...changing batteries in a "universal" will usually require it to be reprogrammed.

Also...because of the remotes construction (rubber membranes with carbon dots that short across PC traces) I've seen certain buttons stop working altogether.

The following steps will reset your remote. If this does not fix it, then it's probable a hjardware related problem.


1- Remove the battery from the Harmony remote, hold the 'Off' button and insert the battery back in. The screen will display 'Safe Mode'.

2- Make sure you have version 7.7.0 of the Harmony software installed on your computer. You can download it at http://logitech.com/myharmony.

3- Launch the software and log in to your account.

4- Click on 'Downloads' at the top of the screen.

5- Click 'Firmware' and follow the steps to update the firmware on the remote.

6- Update your remote.

try pressing plus and minus channel on the tv at the same time. works with my daughters tv

Hi,


Here are few Home remedies that should help you fix the issue.If you still face any problems then it is an internal issue with your remote and you will have to contact the nintendo support.

1. Clean the Wii remote pointer lens. Use a soft cloth to remove any sticky substances. Wii remote jackets, stickers or other objects should not block the remote pointer lens, as it will cause characters to move erratically, disappear or remain off-center.
   
2. 
   Operate the Wii remote between three to eight feet away from the sensor. Otherwise, it will not perform properly.
   
3. 
   Note that infra-red lights from candles, toys, appliances, fireplaces and even sunlight may effect how the Wii remote performs. Try to remove or reduce infra-red interference from these sources when possible.
   
4. 
   Turn off or move wireless devices located near the Wii console. You may be experiencing radio frequency interference from other wireless devices.
   
5. Check to see if anything is blocking the sensor. Clear objects away from the sensor and console to enable the remote to send a clear signal to the Wii system.
6. Center the sensor bar directly below or above your television. Having the sensor off-center may cause the Wii remote to perform poorly.

Re-sync the Wii remote to the Wii system:

1. Completely turn off the Wii system. Remove the batteries from the remote. Turn the power off on the Wii console. Unplug the unit from the wall. Wait five seconds and then replug the unit into the wall.
   
2. 
   Push the power button to turn on the Wii console. After the health and safety screen appears, open the small door on the front of the Wii console. Locate the red SYNC button. Push down on the SYNC button for fifteen seconds. This resets all previous SYNCS on the Wii system.
   
3. 
   Re-sync the Wii remote. Locate the red button on the remote control under the battery cover. Push and release this red button. The Wii remote should respond with blinking blue lights.
   
4. 
   Push and release the red SYNC button on the Wii console. Place the batteries back in the remote. When the remote is successfully re-synced, the LED light will remain lit.
   
5. 
   Repeat the re-syncing process with all other Wii remotes on this system.
   

Thank You

Howdy,
To reset your Panasonic Lamp Time:
ø Press and hold these buttons for (at least) 5 seconds:
ø Volume Down button (on TV Panel).
ø AND ACTION Button (on remote).

As the remote gets older the ACTION button may not respond unless you press the button dead center and not at an angle.

Thanks for using FIXYA, BIG IRISH.

Unplugging my TV for 15 seconds (longer actually - at least a minute) made the remote and the satellite TV remote both work again with the TV.  Thanks for the tip!
