I cannot believe this actually worked. I had very little faith, but I tried it. My Onkyo RC-690M remote recently became semi-responsive when trying to operate my Onkyo TX-SR876 Receiver... But it's working after doing this. Thank you!!
After trying 10 times, throw remote out on street in front of a truck. Listen for the crunch. Order new remote.
😂🤣😂🤣LMAO Good one
Lmao
😂😂😂😂
We can't order remote because of coronavirus
@@erichelle-manalastasleonen7144 lmao
There's no way it's 2022 and I'm still fixing technology by slapping it... Thanks a lot!!
worked for me!!!
Thank you for this comment. After trying everything. I read this and smacked it. And now it works 🤣🤣🤣🤣
yup i'm in this same boat, glad i saw this vid before angerly buying a new remote
I did not expect slapping my remote to work but it surprised me.
@@fayebrown3445 lol dude
Oh my gosh, I can't believe this worked. I have a very unique remote for a preamp that's 22 years old. I've taken it apart, changed batteries, cleaned terminals, nothing worked, UNTIL NOW after following your directions! Thank you so much!
Wait what this actually worked???...this man is ahead of our times
See if he'll run for president!
Today it just worked on my jvc remote as well I was shocked bless the man it actually works man cool dude. 😅😂😂😂
Bro is videshi,
But this is Indian style😅
Did not work
I did like you said with the power button, but i also left the remote sitting without batteries for a few hours. Working like a charm now. Thanks!
I remember having to use the same 25 g
This is actually worked .this is practically worked for me......if u don't believe it then just try it for once.....
It did not fix mine
My metz tv remote was not working.. it was more than a year... I saw your video and gave it a try.. Boom! It started working in the first try only... Its unbelievable.. I am really grateful to you for such a helpful video. Thanks a lot.❤
I can't believe it. I'm still in shock. Finally, a troubleshooting video on RUclips that actually works! Thank you sir!

So, basically remotes need a massage too....

I feed mine chocolate, - it never goes wrong
@@johntailing5283 ROFL
John Tailing silk flowers work better
Yeah
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly thought this was a joke but it really did work lol thanks
Yep! Just did it and it worked.
Chris Mannon it worked for me too after I have gave up on my remote and ordered a new one.
Awesome easy fix
Same here,, I really didn't think it would,, Thanks
It didn't work for me
I had a remote that hasnt worked in 5 or 6 years....Youve got to be kidding me. Holding the power button with no batteries actually worked wtf. Thanks mate
My mind is actually boggled. I sat there screaming "what the heck?! Why did that work?" Over and over for like 3 minutes as im changing channels and clicking all the buttons jdjwjdjs
Thank you it worked great!!!! My remote didn’t work at all and after doing that it worked perfectly
WORKED! While I was on the phone with Cox and they were telling me they couldn't fix it, I found your video and it worked! I told her they should add the 'fix' to their support notes. Thank you so much.
Didn't work for me. I tried it several times.
bro I was like "yea of course this is gonna fix my problem" but it actually worked and now I'm so ashamed for doubting this man
Buddy woooooow my remote has started working .....I had to cancel my Amazon 😂 thank you very much dude
I watched this video and thought "yeah I don't think so" and not expecting it to work I did as instructed. I was amazed to find that the 2 buttons (+ - volume controls) which did not work ; have now started working perfectly. INCREDIBLE ! I am an electronics engineer and I have never heard of this procedure but Hey! it works. Thank you very much for your video.
SAME
you can use the channel up button to power up the tv
I had a DVD player remote that didn't work, and I was feeling the same as the numerous skeptics out there. I tried this method and it works!
Oh my god it absolutely worked for me!!! Mallus like here 😁
Did this now all my buttons don’t work and the button that was not working is finally working Great!!!!
Tried it twice and it worked !! I was at one point going bonkers and didn't know what to do. Then I said there must be a solution on the internet, and you were the very first option. Thanks guy 👍👍👍👍 you saved my day and my sanity
And saved you from rage
😂😂😂 I watched this video...after realizing it was close to the end of the video I said “THIS is his advice!??” I tried it and it worked!
I was absolutely sceptical about this fix but, guess what? It works! Thank you so much 😊
It doesn’t work for me :(
This actually worked for me. 2 tries and remote surprisingly worked. I laughed at some of these comments. 😀I was sceptical too.
Watch my remote controllers development review, button assignment etc...ruclips.net/video/irjGUvtjZAg/видео.html
Dawn Preston I read your comment before I tried, it gave me hope and I couldn't wait to try. All four remotes are working.
Oh my, your technique saved me from having to buy another remote. You are a gem. 😃
Holy moly thank you remote professor my remote works now smoothly I trued this in today dated 8 July wednesday 2020....my remote is working fine....but before it was kinda cranky and just switching channels automatically and i tried this method gave a remote a freaking massage touched all the buttons and gave it a good whack two to five times checked and boom it works normal....this is an honest review I have not been paid neither have i been forced to do this review....thank you have subbed and liked
You are a genius! One month ago, I dropped the remote control for my old Toshiba TV, model MW20H63. Instantly, it stopped working; would not even turn on the TV. What to do? The original remote control for my TV has been discontinued. Toshiba would not even provide customer support for older models like mine. I bought 4 different replacements, all supposedly “universal”. They did turn on the TV, but would not allow me to chose a channel by pressing the channel number chosen, then dash (-), then 1, which my old remote control allowed me to do. With the replacements, I had to use the up-down buttons to get to the chosen channel, a longer, more tiring route.
Today, I followed your technique: I took out the batteries, pressed the power button for at least one minute, pressed all the buttons, and whacked the whole remote several times against my palm; repeated the process three times; replaced the batteries; and PRONTO! The goddamn thing worked! It turned on my good old TV and allowed me to quickly get the channel I wanted simply with: The chosen channel number -dash-1. Gracias!
Cannotbelievable
I was so sceptical about it, I tried it once and yikes it worked for me... I was thinking of getting rid of my home theatre! Thanks a bunch dude!
Thanks this worked for me.
My little one dropped the remote and it stopped working, after watching this and trying it, it has sprung to life again.
Thanks again
OMG this works. I almost threw away 1 controller and the controller for my 2nd TV was also playing up. Followed this video and they BOTH work perfectly. Thank you.
Forgot to say it worked first time
Seriously I too tired same it worked man thank you thank you so much I was worried that I'll have to purchase new remote control but you saved my more than1000 bucks....❤
Just tried this worked first time like a charm...my girlfriend nearly died when it worked 😂😂 thanks 🙏🏻
Worked for me too thx God
Okay, it took three tries and a new set of batteries, but this actually worked. I was astounded, particularly as the first two times were a no go.
Thank you! (Poor remote, lost for weeks under a pile of stuff, collecting dust...)
I cant believe but it worked. Thank u so much
I had trouble with my TV remote for the last couple of nights. It didn’t matter how many new batteries I put in there, it still didn’t work until I watch your video. And the method worked for me. Thanks. 😊
Mine still isn’t working
Yesterday my remote was not working at all. - nothing. I watched your video and did as you suggested. Today it is working..
I didn’t think this had a “remote” chance of working? I was wrong! Worked like a charm! Thank you!
I was at the end of my tether I just couldn’t figure out what had happened. Thank you so much this has helped I am in disbelief I didn’t even have to press all the buttons much coz I was a bit sceptical but what do you know. Thank you smiling so much right now😃
Wow! It took six tries but it finally worked. I did not believe this would do any good but figured the remote wasn't working anyway so I might as well give it a try and relieve some frustration at the same time. This was an old remote for a DVD/VHS combo and would not have been easily replaced so I'm extremely happy that it's "fixed".
Good
I want to thank you for this video. My Toshiba remote VC-522 was totally unresponsive on my W522CF VHS player. Your method of pressing the power button for 60 secs after removing batteries and then pressing all the buttons numerous times revived the REMOTE. I'm ecstatic because I was given this player & Remote to help transfer VHS tapes to digital MP4 files. This has made my life much easier for those projects. Thanks a million times over, because without a remote, the VHS player wasn't working up to full capacity! YES YES YES!
Legend says he's still whacking that remote...
RokkYgAz The scientific key to this fix is the whack... and if you dont have it in you to whack properly youll be forever stuck on whatever channel you saw last.
hahahahahah nice one ;) but there is something to the notion of discharging a device and having it fixed that way...
Hahaha
Whackk
Hahahahahaha!
Yeah ...he’s whacko.
This is so amazing! It’s actually worked in my remote after 3 attempts. Thank you so much!!
As an electronics engineer I was sceptical but after 2 tries this method really works, amazing! Thanks and apologies for my scepticism
I had to manual power it on then, the remote now works! I absolutely LOOOOOVE being a student of the University of RUclips❣️🤪😉👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is unbelievable. Following your advice, I managed to fix my TV box which had got wet and was out of order. Well done!
It totally worked! It took 3 tries, Thank you! It saved me from having to buy a new remote!
Didn't expect this to work, but it did! It was last hope before buying a new remote! So absolutely fantastic
I threw my remote Ina wood then I picked up my phone and searched this, I was nervous that it won't come back on then I tried the tutorial it worked, THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR
Felt pretty stupid doing that, waited for the end of the video to hear it was a prank, or a Rick Roll....but it actually worked. 😮
It was a remote for window blinds. Did what ya said, and blew air through it, now works fine. Amazing.
You earned that 👍
It worked for me. My remote did NOT work.
Now it does. Seriously.
I had a remote for a receiver that was in storage for 3 years, and when attempting to use it again it wouldn’t operate. I removed the batteries which had leaked, and cleaned it from the inside, but still no luck with brand new batteries. After nearly tossing it into the garbage, I saw this video. A replacement for this model of receiver was unfortunately not available. So even though I was skeptical, I thought I may as well give a try to the suggestions raised in this video. And it worked, the remote was brought back to life! Thanks so much for producing this video!
Me too. I found it stupid at first.. worked like magic.. this guy is a genious.. saved me like 20bucks for a new one..
We could not believe this actually worked! We were like “yah right!” AND then it WORKED! Thank you!
Amazed that it worked on the sanyo remote control rb drw500.
Used an pencil ✏️ eraser on the remote connector as well.
Stopped working again. Did your suggestions again and back to working.
Thank you so much.
We haven't used this machine in 20 years I'd bet
Nice one bro! My grandfather had a problem in his remote, and you brought me the solution! Thank you so much!
IT'S NOT WORKING
Worked for me! Only the volume buttons worked after I'd turn on the TV manually. I figured it was worth a try and felt silly pushing the buttons, but it worked the first time and this is an older Phillips remote that isn't the same brand as the TV. Thank you!
Same problem as yours... Volume button to increase the sound does not work... Sadly this procedure hasn't fixed...
Just UNBELIEVABLE, thank you so much. Took ONE time only and boom!! Seems almost insane that something so simple simply works 😆😆
Just follow the instruction one time and it really works. Unbelievable . Thank you WorldofTech, you are wonderful.
Frickin' unbelievable! Worked 1st time after following the instructions! So happy I tried this before heading out to buy a new remote, thank you so much for posting these instructions. Your optimistic tone helped me believe it would work and VOILA!
Mine didn't work , but thank you!
Not working! Tried 4x😳😎
I was reading all the comments while massaging my remote and felt so stupid doing it. It actually worked for mine I’m shook
It worked for skeptical me and im tickled😅
So true same here, simply couldn't believe my eyes , it worked..
You massaged your remote lmao... mine doesn't work nor does the new one
Watch my remote controllers development review, button assignment etc...ruclips.net/video/irjGUvtjZAg/видео.html
Thank you so much! My toddler ran out of the shower and got a hold of the remote while he was wet! So much water went into it...Been trying half the day to get it to work. whacked it, took it apart dried it still nothing...then saw your video and tried it and it really worked! I must say I was skeptical but wow thank you so much it actually worked!
I was having problems with the arrow keys, hard to control them. Awful situation!
Just watch your video.
PROBLEM SOLVED!
FIRST TRY!
Thanks so much!
Who said that Magic doesn't exist!!!
Huh. Made a noticeable difference on a 20 yr old Yamaha 5.1 receiver. Volume buttons have been crapping out lately and this seems to have brought them back to life a good bit. Still not 100%, but better than it was. Considering its age, I’m pretty impressed it’s doing anything at all.
Thanks.
3 year old video still valid to this day. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Not valid to me but ok
Delighted this worked. My Airbnb guest was due to check in later today and tv was not working. Best Buy is quite a drive away and it is snowing so this was a great, easy fix 😊
Didn’t work :(
Didn't work
I thought for sure this was a joke. But it worked! Thank you
I can't believe this actually worked. I was very skeptical, especially when it came to pushing all the buttons and smacking it, but it actually worked. Thank you for the video!
I just threatened my remote that if it didn't behave it would get this treatment. Worked a treat.
This actually worked! I thought I was about to buy a new remote.😂 Thank you very much❤❤
"This is probably gonna help like 60% of you."

It works 100%.
Thank you
Didn't work for me.
@@dallascowboysnumberonefan4863 I THINK THE MAN IS GENUINE WHO HAS THIS VIDEO, AND THIS METHOD MAY WORK FOR SOME CONTROLLERS PROVIDING THE CONTROLLER IS NOT COMPLETELY FINISHED. I PUT MY CONTROLLER INTO THE MICROWAVE ON THAW IN HOPES IT WOULD DRY IT OUT A LITTLE SO I WOULDNT HAVE TO PULL MINE APART TO TRY AND FIX IT AND I DONT KNOW NOW IF EVEN A PROFESSIONAL TV REPAIR MAN CAN FIX MY CONTROLLER BUT IM GOING TO SEND IT TO HIM IF HE WILL BE WILLING TO TRY AND FIX IT AGAIN. HE GOT IT WORKING 2 YEARS AGO BUT HE KNOWS HOW TO CHARGE.
You have a beautiful mind!
My remote stopped working the other day and the batteries has rotted, I removed them and wiped it clean with some baking soda and vinegar and then it would not work. Just this this process and it works again, thank you!
Hahaha no way bro It actually worked when I first watched I thought this was a troll but I thought screw it and done it and it works now! Thanks man
OOOOMMGGGG I REALY THOUGHT HE WAS JOKING BUT IT ACTUALLY FIXEDD ITTT BRO THIS GUY IS A LEGEND I DONT KNOW IT GOT SO MANY DISLIKES I SWEAR IAM NOT LYING
Yes, it's not a joke..our remote is working already👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The discharge is key. Also, many lack eye/hand coordination and fail the attempt! LMAO!
Holy Crap, had my doubts but this actually worked.
Did it heck
Say what? I just did my other remote in the living room..... My power button works again!!!
two for two. Thank you so much for this video.
It was one of the most aggressive videos I have ever watched
Hahahahahaha
Well this less aggressive compared to an Asian user having the same issue on the remote.
Lmao this definitely worked.. I thought it was bullshit! Thank you bc I was definitely getting pissed looking for codes for this other universal remote.
As an electronics engineer with more years experience than you have been breathing I can confidently say that pressing the power button down for a minute discharges nothing other than your credibility.
Samsung for one says to remove batteries hold power button to reset the remote. It's on the website. Your expert doesn't know how to check a web site for help. Find a new "expert".
Do you sell remotes? His process worked for me.
100% 👍 Fixed two remotes.
One for the TV and one for the android.
Unbelievable. 😂
I genuinely watched this video thinking it was some kind of a joke or prank. I tried it once and it worked 😂 thanks
I had 2 messed up remotes and this fixed both! Thanks!! Many thumbs up!
As I watched your well explained video, my thoughts were no way, but what do I have to lose? I did exactly what you said, and holy moly, it works like a charm! Thank you so very much!
It worked for me to I couldn't belive it
I've just fixed my remote, it's working 100%. Thanks (Bongani from South Africa)
this is amazing you helped my son and I, being able to do movie night together and we are so glad you created a video like this thank you :)
Ivis Perozo i thought you just gave a quick whack to your son dont mind just joking 😂
Thank you for the tips. 👍 Whilst not working perfectly still, I can now use the remote buttons functions I need, albeit having to press down on them fairly hard whilst doing so. 😛 I've had my remote control for over a decade I'd say, my Samsung telly still going strong. A powerhouse.
😂 I tried it. As I pushed all the buttons, I realized that the bottom right button was stuck down. It worked 😂
Jokes aside, I had to try this twice in a row but it freaking worked! UNBELIEVABLE! THANKS! 😂
I was pretty sure it was BS but then I had nothing to lose as my Toyotomi Akira AC is pretty old and it would be a Hustle trying to find an original remote....you saved me so much trouble. I'm still laughing at how unbelievable this is 😂
Oh my goodness...this worked like a Charm and it only took one try.
My television started malfunctioning all of a sudden when I used the remote. Dancing all over the screen, selecting things on its own. After doing this once it stopped and I was able to select what I wanted.
Thanks a Million!!
You saved me a trip to the repair guy or the cost of a new TV.
whew!!
Absolutely brilliant! Worked first time, thought I'd search to see if there was anything I could do before I purchased another one. Thank you so much!
Thanks a million mate .... stumbled across your video while just about to buy a replacement set top box because the remote wasn't working .... was resigned to losing all my archive of previously recorded programs built up over the years .... but flipping heck ... your trick worked and now I have it all back without spending a penny .... Thanks a bunch
This…actually worked. I couldnt believe it. Thanks so much!!!!
Thanks buddy - you’ve just saved me $50 on buying a new remote. I love your work.
What about praying to God after taking the batteries out ?
That might help too.
This made me laugh out loud.
That’s every Mexican
God isn’t going to fix you’re remote lol
That's something material of this world. I doubt God would bother to do that. Plus, TV is brainwasher, God wouldn't. That's just pathetic.
Any of you gooses heard of sarcasm
This is incredible. I have an old Yamaha receiver remote where several buttons had stopped working. I followed another guide and took the controller apart, cleaned it thoroughly with alcohol and put it back together but it was still not working well, almost no difference. Was about to open it again and repeat the procedure and possibly glueing aluminium tin foil on the buttons which I've seen in other guides but came across this video, tried it just for the heck of it and my buttons work flawlessly after doing it 2 times.
Saved me alot of hassle, thanks!
Worked. I can't believe it. I thought this was a joke but I had nothing to lose so I tried it and it works. Thank you for sharing this.
I did everything you said do and it wasn’t any change then I threw it down from the top of my house and stomped on it in a fit of rage then ordered a new remote.
Ok. The instructions sound like nonsense but I tried it anyway since I figured what's the harm. Followed instructions and then nothing improved, just as I expected! Tried it again and now my remote works! It really works!!!
Amazing! Can’t believe it worked! Thank you
Worked for me!!!!! My tv control was totally dead and after this trick is back to life!!! Thanks!!!
IT WORKED, IT LITERALLY WORKED!!!!!
THANK YOU, I got my whole afternoon free to do other things, A Relief 👍
🧢
It actually worked for my mom & I! Thank you!!! 🙏❤️
It worked thank you
THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS ACTUALLY WORKED SO WELL. I COULDNT FIX MY REMOTE AND I FOUND THIS AND IT WORKED
Wow, this actually works. Thank you. Save me from buying a new remote control
