FIX Sony Smart TV Remote Not Working
There are two main solutions you can try to employ if your Sony TV remote is not working. One is to reset the remote and the most common one is to change the batteries.
Reset the Remote
A soft reset can clear minor glitches. To start, remove the batteries from the remote.
Once the batteries are out, press and hold the Power button on the remote for 5–10 seconds. Then, start spamming all the buttons on the remote as many times as you can.
Finally, reinsert the batteries and test again. Your remote, having been reset, should now respond well.
Check the Batteries
Replace the batteries: Old or weak batteries are the most common reason for a remote not working. Replace them with fresh AAA alkaline batteries.
Insert correctly: Make sure the batteries are installed in the right direction (+/-).
Clean battery contacts: Use a dry cloth to remove any dust or corrosion inside the battery compartment.
