I was searching for the spare remote to order online. Don't know how I reach there. You saved my money. My remote power button was not working, it fixed it smoothly. Thanks mate
😮 OMG, thank you Soooooo so much. I just bought the tcl google tv yesterday. Got it all ready and placed it on the tv stand , plugged the tv in. Then I put the batteries in the remote and got nothing. I couldn't get the remote to work for nothing. But you saved me a trip back to Best Buy. Thank you I appreciate you. 😊
This is a good deal Ryan. I am glad you posted this because I can imagine the frustration of people who are having to buy remote after remote only for them to not work, that would suck. This method is similar to resetting the PCM or ECM on a car where you unhook from a dedicated power source and turn the key over to let the boards run down power and reset.
This just solved my problem. I tried several things from TCL website and none worked and was just about to order a new remote when I came across this video by chance and reluctantly decided to watch it. Fast track 30 seconds and my remote is working again! Thank you!
I'm so glad to hear this! TCL called me and their tech support told me to do this. I also had ordered a new remote and of course I didn't need one and oddly the new remote needed this done to it as well to get it to work. Lol
I was so frustrated. Tried more than ten apps nothing worked, googled everything and no useful info. But bumped into your video and tried your method and IT WORKED! Thank you so much
It worked!!!.... we only have 1 phone with IR Blaster and when the phone wasn't here, we wouldn't see TV all day!!!!!.... Thank you!!!!! My remote is back!!!!!
This worked for my TCL Roku Tv remote. I have battling this issue for over a year. Finally found this video and it worked on the first try. Amazing video!
This worked for my TCL Roku TV 55”. Remote suddenly stopped working and after your simple procedure, works perfectly. Tried re-pairing and this didn’t work. Downloaded the RokuTV iPhone app and that works, but not convenient for guests, lol. Then I found your video and all is good with the original remote. Many thanks!
That's strange. I've never heard of this working on a Roku remote. I have a 55" TCL p605 TV and the review has never locked up. Anyway, I'm glad my video helped you!
Thank you so much you did fix my remote, my remote wasn’t working and my kids were screaming and crying at the top of their lungs for cartoons. Thank you such much once again ❤
And you know what it was likely the kids that made the remote do this lol. My youngest caused this to happen to mine. It seems to happen when you press all the buttons at the same time lol
It worked thanks😊. Nearby distance the remote works fine. When I try to operate it from the couch it wasn't working but months back it was the same distance and worked. Now I pressed the power button for 15 Sec, It works fine.
Ik I'm late but not only did you fixed my remote you fixed my power button on my Remote because it didn't worked whenever I tried to turn off my TV or on so your such a live saver
Thanks for the help! I was trying to make my remote in working order, but I was continuously failing. I really did this in 15 seconds. Amazing! Thanks for the help!
this worked. We have now the new replaced tv and it only came with 1 remote. and our old tv's 2nd remote is left behind and it worked. Good job. Note: new tv is TCL beyondTV2.
I'm so glad to hear this and I'm happy to hear this fixed yours as well. I bought a new remote thinking mine was broken and the new remote wouldn't work or pair either. TCL called me and the lady on the phone had me me do this trick. I couldn't find any information online for this so I thought I should make a quick video explaining how to do it because I knew others had to be in the same situation as me and at the very least it may save someone a phone call to TCL support and at the very worst it may prevent someone from wasting money on a new tv. Thanks for watching!!
You're welcome! I thought mine was also bad when my remote stopped working and my replacement remote didn't work either but this trick made them both work!
My daughter had been playing with the remote this morning and completely messed up. No matter what button you pressed, it would just bring the home screen up and then take the home screen down. This worked like a charm. Thank you so much!
Thank you very much!! I accidentally sat on my remote and it become unresponsive. I have to use my phone to turn on the TV but its not convenient. This trick solved the issue.
I tried this on my 20 year old TLC TV just thinking it was going to be a waste of time, but OMG! It worked. I'm so grateful. Thanks for this suggestion. You are the best!!!
Hello, Thank you for your help. I want to add something. When taking out batteries didn't work. I also Unplugged my TCL TV. And the TV was working with the Remote again....😊
Thankyou so much for the battery trick it worked my new tv remote stoped working for the second time so I went looking on the internet for a fix and I found this video
worked like a charm for me I owe you one thank you so much I can't tell you how happy I am to have stumbled across your video thank you so much for putting it out I couldn't find anything to help me until I found you
Haha! This is exactly what happened to me too! I'm not sure why I needed to do this to the new remote as well but it is what got it working along with the old one so now we also have two remotes lol
It seems to work for both. I think they replaced android tv with Google tv didn't they? They should pretty much be the same thing regardless. Thanks for watching and I'm glad it worked for you!
Informative video, I also got this TV this is its remort, in writing it doesn't have MUTE option and by pressing channel option when number comes but no specific number channel how to press channel 41 , 39, 57 etc... Answer plz thnx
@@nadeemhussain2609 no clue. This is a remote fix that I learned. I'm not a TV remote expert or repairman. The remote has no numbers. If you have questions you can call TCL tech support which is where I learned this trick.
awesome bro, this easier than having to unplug my tv like I used to everytime I had this same issue (my remote control freezing out and not responding) thank u much🙌
For some reason (probably sitting on it and pressing buttons as a result) the remote unpairs from the device. To start the pairing process..... make sure the remote has power. Turn TV on. Press and hold the HOME and OK buttons then follow prompt. FYI...... remote WILL work unpaired but you have to install a laser sight to make sure the signal is hitting the receiver accurately. Lol.

How to remove the remote back thing its hard
Didn’t realize my 8 month old was playing with the remote and it wouldn’t work after. This really worked!! Thank you.
You're welcome! My youngest kept meeting up the remote as well which is why I had to contact TCL to find out this trick.

Well you made a believer out of me. Im shocked to say your "remove-batteries" procedure worked perfectly. Thank you

How on earth this actually works!
Thumbs up dude i was really pissed off with that remote. But it work like a charm from now!
Glad to help! I actually learned this directly from TCL tech support.

You're welcome!
Thank you so much,did the same as yourselves,ordered new remote and that didn’t work either.Followed your tip and it works .
TCL needs to make this trick known to customers. They need to include it as an insert with the remote.
Awesome, I had an issue where power on button didn't work so I always had to turn the TV on manually from the TV itself but your method fixed it.
this worked. We have now the new replaced tv and it only came with 1 remote. and our old tv's 2nd remote is left behind and it worked. Good job. Note: new tv is TCL beyondTV2.
Glad to hear this fixed yours too! That's why I made this video.
It not working 😢

Thank you for your help. I want to add something. When taking out batteries didn't work.
I also Unplugged my TCL TV.
And the TV was working with the Remote again....😊

Thanks Ryan, I have a different problem but this worked just fine to fix my control
IT really worked, didn't believe it worked.
Thanks mate😊
Thx for the tips, it worked! But looks the problem not in the tv because the tv setting keeps pop up😅

Thanks for sharing this simple trick.
thanks! this got it fully working again.
Thank you so much that saved me a few grey hairs.
For some reason (probably sitting on it and pressing buttons as a result) the remote unpairs from the device. To start the pairing process..... make sure the remote has power. Turn TV on. Press and hold the HOME and OK buttons then follow prompt. FYI...... remote WILL work unpaired but you have to install a laser sight to make sure the signal is hitting the receiver accurately. Lol.
Yeah I've seen that process as well. This issue seems to be unrelated I think.
My tcl tv keeps on showing up remote diagnosis and always function and make choices without me holding down a button. Pls help
