How to Fix Any TV Remote Not Working Power Button or other Buttons, Not Responsive, Ghosting

Try this First!!! Before you take your tv remote apart or buy a new one try this method. If your tv remote is acting funny, has a mind of its own, if the power button is not working, or two or three other buttons are non-responsive make sure you watch this video all the through. I have fixed many remotes like this. 60-70% will have your remote working after watching this. If it works plz like and if not work plz dislike. We should see at least 60% likes on this video. thx.

This method can work with any TV remote doesn't matter if you have an LG, Sony, Samsung, Panasonic, Sharp, Zenith, Vizio, TCL, Hisense, Sceptre, RCA, Polaroid, JVC, Skyworth, Westinghouse, etc.

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

After trying 10 times, throw remote out on street in front of a truck. Listen for the crunch. Order new remote.

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!!

[NikkoOnRoblox]

This actually worked! I thought I was about to buy a new remote.😂 Thank you very much❤❤

There's no way it's 2022 and I'm still fixing technology by slapping it... Thanks a lot!!

Wait what this actually worked???...this man is ahead of our times

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!

[davidbetts]

I was absolutely sceptical about this fix but, guess what? It works! Thank you so much 😊

[christianamannon]

Honestly thought this was a joke but it really did work lol thanks

[pdxguns]

Thank you it worked great!!!! My remote didn’t work at all and after doing that it worked perfectly

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!

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!

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

[arunjusrut]

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!

[SacredAmbulance]

i love that you said "if it worked give a thumbs up, if it didnt thumbs down, and it should 60-70% thumbs up" and it is lol

[vjctoriaj]

i absolutely called bs on this but i gave it a try and i kid you not it actually worked and my jaw dropped in silence for the next 5 minutes.

[tagonminmyat]

Me and my dad was freaking out cuz our remote stopped working. And I try this and it worked. My dad was impressed with me and my self esteem goes up. Thank you.

[RokkYgAz]

Legend says he's still whacking that remote...

[Sixtysixway]

I'll be damned, it worked! Ok so here's my case:

I bought this very old but very good ultra high definition tv for 50$ and the previous owner gave me the remote which had not been used for years. The tv worked fine but the remote did not.

So I opened up the remote and cleaned the inside, which was full of grease, coffee, some old white battery build up stuff and dirt but still was not working.

I was about to give up but I saw this video, gave everything you said a try and it WORKED FIRST TIME! Now I don't have to buy another remote.

[froggyfrogboy]

Say what? I just did my other remote in the living My power button works again!!!
two for two. Thank you so much for this video.
