Check the Wii remote battery life. Dead batteries in Wii remotes can cause the Wii console to turn itself off. If this is the problem, remove the dead batteries and insert new ones. If they're rechargeable, recharge the batteries.
If this is not the problem, your Wii console might not be working properly. Visit support.nintendo.com or call 1-800-255-3700 for more information.
You have to sync the Wii remote to the console.
To sync the Wii remote, turn on your Wii.
Then open the back of the remote and press the "SYNC" button.
Then open the SD Card Slot cover on the front of your Wii and press the "SYNC" button.
Your remote should be turned on if you do this.
If this problem still occurs even when the Wii remote is synced, your Wii remote might not be working properly. Return it for a new one.
Try new batteries in the wii remotes that are turning off. If you still have the problem with the Wii remotes turning off after replacing the old batteries with new ones then call nintendo cause you'll have a controller problem then.
Hey Jack, How many remotes are you able to connect at a time? If you have multiple remotes try turning the ones you know that work off, and putting them in another room(so you know they will not try to connect). Then try connecting with the bad one. If that doesn't work you might have to sync the remote: hold down the red sync button on the wii, located next to the sd card slot, while holding down the red button on the remote, located under the battery cover on the back. Now try connecting. If it still doesn't work, the LED lights in the sensor bar might have burned out, this happens a lot when you keep your sensor bar directly on your tv without the stand(the tv gets hot and burns out the lights), a lot of people do this because the stand looks bad. Go buy a new sensor bar, they sell them at wal-mart for $20, plus they're wireless, so you don't have to worry about that thin little wire popping. Test the new wii bar, if it's still not working, then you're remote is just worthy of getting returned.
hope this helps!

I know how you feel the best thing to do is turn the wii off wait five sec's then turn it on. I f that dosn't work then tell me and I will try to solve it.
open the wii remote battery cover
press the little red sync button once, at the same time as pressing the little sync button under the sd card flap(on the wii) once.
just one tap each and it shud work.
dont keep the buttons pressed or it wont work.
