The remote does not work; the battery was replaced.

if you replaced the batteries id attempt to use a universal remote... if that does not work the tv remote receiver may be bad

As long as the battery produces what the remote needs it should work. However the remote itself could be faulty. Or the remote sensor on your device could be faulty. Check that the old battery has not leaked and messed up the contacts. Plus the new battery is actually touching the contacts!

Check the Batteries inside of the remote control for your TV to see if they needs to be replaced and put new batteries inside of the TV remote and see if it will work after having new batteries. If the remote is still not working with new batteries then the remote is broken and needs to be replaced with a new remote from your TV company. The TV name of brand should have an official company website and you could try and take a look for replacement remotes.

Low battery power can cause the remote to not work correctly or not work at all. Lift the back cover up and away from the remote. Remove and re-insert the 2 batteries. Replace the back cover on the remote, and slide down to click it back into place.
Pour a little bit of rubbing alcohol onto a piece of cotton and very gently clean the main board. You will be surprised to see how much dirt is built up on the main board. Now take all the other parts or pieces of your remote control and give them a good gentle wash using a tiny bit of mild soap. Wash all the plastics and also the rubber keypad.

Hi,

If you have been change the battery but remote still not work, please dissemble your remote check battery lead/wires for defective and other part on pbc. If nothing wrong there, the problem is usually the IR bulb on remote. Try replace with same model or just replace your remote with new one.

Ur Lithium battery fully take in the charges,u recharges?Let the rmote sit without battery about couples hours.Put battery back in again,should work.

Sounds like the connections inside the remote are damaged and might need soldering. Check the connections around where the battery terminals are carefully. Has a battery leaked in the remote?

cbridges2232,

Any luck with your keyless remote issue? I'm having the exact same problem with my Ford F150 CrewCab after car battery replacement.

1) Reset the remote. To do this, remove the batteries and hold down one of the number buttons for about 5 seconds to drain the capacitors. Replace the batteries, reprogram the remote to your TV and see if it works.

2) If it doesn't, try a second set of replacement batteries just in case.

3) If none of the DirectTV codes work, you have 3 options.

1) Contact Directv and see if they have additional codes not listed in the manual.

2) Contact your televisions manufacturer and see if they have additional codes to try.

3) Purchase a 3rd party remote that works with both devices..

At the bottom of the remote is a small button that can be pressed by a pin or pen. Press it and the battery will pop out. Replace the battery and you will have a working remote
