Roku Simple Remote Not Working Troubleshooting Guide

In this video I go over some troubleshooting steps if your Roku Simple Remote is not working. I talk about making sure the Roku Device is visible to the Roku simple remote. If the Roku Device is hidden, or behind the TV, or has something in front of it, the Roku simple remote will not be able to communicate with it. I talk about making sure the batteries are installed the correct direction and replacing the batteries with new batteries. I have other videos on about Roku, and if you are interested and have time and want to learn more about Roku, please check that playlist out. Thanks for watching!

    My right arrow button won’t work. That’s it. Every other button works fine except this button. I don’t know if it’s the remote or the TV. Few mos ago I got a new Roku Device/Remote. That one sucked. I’d have to press the buttons like 20 times to get it to do anything. Then suddenly the power button wouldn’t work. I had to press the button on the Tv to get it on/off. I don’t understand what’s wrong. Is my Tv not letting remote connect. Do I need new batteries for my remote? Why is this issue popping up after 3mos?

    Provided the batteries are not dead, just taking the batteries out and putting them back in again will make it start working again. It is not perfectly easy to pop the batteries out if you do not have long fingernails.

    PLEASE READ! I just fixed my remote! What happen is the GREEN LIGHT on my roku remote was stop blinking all the sudden, like it’s dead, no reaction at all. So I searched and tried all the ways on KZread Google Facebook customer care etc. so I started changing batteries , reset, remote, reset TV, unplug and replug the TV and the Roku stick. NOTHING works! the remote just dead dead….I was like “maybe if I drop it on ground and it will work just like how I “fix” things when I was kid.” So I dropped the remote on ground naturally not like smash it! And that still NOT work, so DONT DO THAT! And then I was thinking why all the KZreadr was almost wising the same kind of batteries? (“same kind” cause I’m not sure if they are the same brand but they look the same) the rose gold with black color one, and I was using the silver with black color one ( sorry, I’m not sure the brand). Anyway, I putted some old batteries which is the rose gold with black, look exactly like the one in video, and I press the little button and the green light ON!!!!!!!!! Not sure if this help but thanks for reading! ( if you tried all the ways like me, try this😂 worth to try, at less better than buy a new one and only work for 3days like me…)

    The moment he produced a tool he'd purchased to remove batteries I realised what level of stupidity we were dealing with... the rest of the video confirmed this.. this video is just utter garbage. If it was named "how to replace batteries in the roku remote" I'd accept it and a handful of senior citizens suffering from dementia might find it useful but troubleshooting.. no.. if this guy's car stops working I assume he removes his fuel and then puts it back in it.. if that doesn't work he's stumped
