Lego games on Wii won't recognize remote

It's probably because you have two diferent brand remotes and the wii doesnt know which one your using

Well, I don't use the Wii wheel. I played with the gba and Game Cube controller. So I recommend to try using the nunchuk in your races. Play Wii play to test your wii remote's pointing and twisting ability's

if its form someone elses wii you need to unsinc it and resinc with yours.

There are two optaions for you to find one, one of the simpler ones would be to find a video game store and ask if they have the booklet in stock and they should be able to give you one, or you can try e-bay, im sure there is something on there. I hope I have helped you in anyway.

that depends on the game. some games require both wii mote and wiimote+nunchuk. IF the game has an option to disable this however, it would be in the main menu's options screen.

well on the front of the wii where you put the sd card there is a red button next to the slot push that then the red button in the back of the wii remote with the battery cover open. its called syncing the wii remote to the system and it should help ya cheers

Check on the back of the game and see how many players can play. It usually says it on the top right corner on the back of the game case. If it has a wii remote that has a 1 in it then only one remote will work.

Once your in the game itself push the "1 and 2" buttons at the same time for about 1 second. The lblue lights on the remote will flash until it syncs. NFS: Carbon does this too.

We had this same problem so I did a google search for 2nd wii remote not connecting or staying connected and this is what we came up with and did this and it really works! So hopefully this will help all of you to. Good luck! K and M

Wii Remote not being recognized by the Wii Console (lights on the Wii Remote flash when you press a button, but then go out) - Most Common:
Getting the Wii console to recognize (or "sync" with) a Wii Remote, especially one that did not come in the box with your Wii console, may require doing a few additional steps before it can be synced. Additionally, a Wii Remote that was working, but is no longer being recognized (or has "lost its sync") may need to be re-synced. Please use the troubleshooting steps listed below, which our experience has shown can solve many Wii Remote issues.

Try these steps!

1. Turn the Wii console power OFF by pressing the POWER Button on the front of the console. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet for a few seconds. After a few seconds have elapsed, plug the cord back into the wall outlet.
   
   
2. Turn the power of the Wii console ON. When you see the Health and Safety screen, open the small flap on the front of the Wii console to find a red button labeled "SYNC." Press and hold the SYNC Button down for 15 seconds. This will clear all the syncs on the Wii, allowing you to get a clean start to begin the process described below.
   
   
3. After holding the SYNC Button on the Wii console down for at least 15 seconds, you can now "re-sync" your Wii Remotes:
   1. With the first Wii Remote you wish to sync, remove the battery cover on the back of the Wii Remote to find a small red button just below the batteries.
      
      
   2. Press and release the small red button just below the batteries on the Wii Remote; the blue lights on the front of the Wii Remote will blink.
      
      
   3. Quickly press and release the red SYNC button on the inside of the white flap on the front of the Wii console (picture below).
      
      
   4. When the Player LED blinking stops and stays lit, the syncing is complete. The LED that is illuminated indicates the player number (1 through 4).
      
      
   5. This sync procedure (steps "a" through "d" above) must be followed for each additional Wii Remote added to the system.
