Thank you so much. Your tip about unplugging the fire stick and taking out the remote batteries worked!

[@hsk-jm6kh]

You my freind are a legend!!!. My fix was scraping the connector with a screwdriver. No other KZbin video suggested to do this.Thank you so much!.

[@christyle5539]

Thank you for pointing out that it could be the chemicals that leaked out of the batteries, I didn't think that this was the issue for mine but when I checked, it surely was.

[@TessaRafael]

Bro, you're a genius! I've cleaned the contacts and it's working now! I was about to buy a new remote after trying everything else with no success.

[@champ0053]

I just did that now it works lol 😂 cleaning battery contacts

[@ookycooky]

Thank you...had tried everything but scrapping the connectors at both end worked !

[@yogoson8371]

Thank you! You made my day 😊 pairing worked after powering off both fire stick and remote. Also, putting the remote very close to the fire stick helped pair it.

[@Songlady2]

Simply thank you. Step #2 worked for me

[@srinivasn4707]

Scrapping the connectors worked for me, Thank u so much…

[@721mgm]

Thank you. The unplugging of the fire stick and removing the batteries worked. Thanks

[@abhshk]

Wow, That was magic, scrapping the clean connector worked for me....Thank you so much....i was just about to place order for a new remote...

[@bibinthomas9333]

Were can you order for new remote

[@raghav999yt9]

​@@bibinthomas9333amazon

[@sarcastic.affirmations]

The first one worked for me. I was hitting my remote like a punching bag but I never thought of cleaning the battery connectors 😅 Works like new now, thanks!

[@lizp5098]

Thanks Dude. It didn’t work exactly, but it led me down the correct path to see onscreen directions that worked.

[@CarnivorousHuntress]

Life saver. I tried everything but nothing worked. Checked my connections for the batteries and sure enough there was a small amount of residue on there. Wiped if off and bam! It works like new. 😊

[@triciaconte4694]

Thank you!! This worked perfectly to pair my remote.

[@MrReeview]

Thanks for the help, dirty contact points on the remote :) a good way to check if the remote is working is record a video on your phone, check the top of the remote to see if the infrared is working when you press a button

[@giofr]

Thanks man! U saved my evening 👊🏻🙏🏻

[@dikshamahalle1778]

After watching many videos I thought my Amazon remote is dead and with heavy heart i started using mobile app though it's not user friendly but when I checked out your video and it helped me alot and my remote finally started working now 🥰❤️❤️ Thank you so much for sharing this tricks with us

[@jonathansolano2558]

Thank you sir I was loosing it with this issue, but scrapped and it worked! Even though your controller's battery connector looks clean, make sure you scrapp it!!!!!!!

[@therealnadia]

I watched many videos before clicking on this video. No one before said about scraping the connectors. I looked very closely at my connectors & they looked clean, like absolutely nothing was on it! But after scraping it with a small flathead screwdriver, then wiping it with a paper towel... viola! It worked. Thank you.

[@warrenjoseph76]

Same! I was amazed

[@k.a.3678]

Thank you for this cuz it really worked. I wasn’t gonna try this because it looked clean, but hey..thank you

[@vishalram9613]

Correct...same experience

[@edm2953]

I scrapped the terminal ends and coals it works now! Thanks for putting up this Video!

[@AdeAde-th3bc]

thank you mate! watched a lot of vids and none suggested the wiping down fix. worked like a charm

[@gav9808]

I saw when you mentioned battery acid possibly leaking onto the current, I noticed it did so I cleaned it up and it solved the problem instantly. Crazy how little things like that can be the solution to all your problems

[@bvenugop]

Thank you. The steps fixed it. Appreciate it.

[@richboz3156]

Thank you. I ain't used my firestick in over 2 years.. You really helped me fire it back up. I hope that you have a great day

[@belleboucles3646]

Omg, can’t thank you enough. It worked following your clear steps. I haven’t been able to use my remote for the past 3 months.

[@stevenandrade1204]

Wow, common sense fix here. The coil on my battery connection had some corrosion. I cleaned it off using a flat head and it works now! Don’t look past it. And thank you for the tip!

[@bowowser7]

Wow…I literally was unable to do anything with this remote and finally came to your video. I played with the connector after you said check for physical damage, but the batteries back in, and it worked…thank you!🎉

[@donnakessler48]

I didn't think there was much battery acid on the current to affect the remote but I took your advice, used a screwdriver, scraped and cleaned it and VOILA it worked! Thank you!

[@johnnyh667]

Thanks - it was the battery connection - remote works like a dream - thanks again

[@thattallsomeguy]

Cleaning terminals worked.. thanks bro!

[@mandeepsingh-ws2zl]

Removing device and batteries from remote and inserting again actually works for me.. thanku so much bro...

[@datetley]

Thanks! This really worked for me. I am subscribed.

[@warrenjoseph76]

So glad you led with the battery connector cleaning tip. I have a couple “faulty” remotes I was about to toss and they came fully back to life! Thank you!

[@Amber48300]

💯 This was the issue for me too 😂🤦‍♀

[@kaliseh.1009]

what exactly am i cleaning ? all im finding on my connecter is this ink looking thing thats all

[@warrenjoseph76]

@@kaliseh.1009 just scrape the flat connector with whatever is recommended. It’s been a while since I had to do it so I can’t remember what I used. But it was pretty obvious some buildup came off

[@mausammonu672]

Cleaning up the contacts worked like a charm! Thanks for the education 😊

[@k10th85]

Liked! The first one scraping the connector worked super surprised because there was little to none on it.

[@DavinderShelly]

Same to me. I was operating firetv from phone remote app from last 3 months

[@shawnawilson1212]

Yep....I scraped the both areas within the battery area with a metal object and it worked afterwards

[@shabeenakhan2023]

Thank you so much, remote was not working seen ur video and fixed it properly, saved money for tv or remote repairing. Thanx again

[@AMILLI_Love]

Wow! I've tried everything for months! Cleaning it actually worked! Thank u!

Thank you, the first one worked for me. I scraped the battery connectors n it worked!

[@howardsanford1745]

Only one to give me the correct solution. Restarted and connected the stick by going to preferences and holding down home button. Thanks man!

[@cheryldillahunty877]

April 23rd, 2023. I spent over a hour trying to figure why my remote wasn’t working. I knew nothing was wrong with my connections. It was until you mentioned the remote being dropped. My remote caddy fell off the wall and I never checked it because it is still practically new I barely watched my fire stick. So here it is a year later and your video is still useful. You saved me a lot of time and money Thank you.

[@itsjsbeautymarket6585]

[@noreendanclair-furlonge795]

[@anapaulins2804]

I use my remote speaker option for music on my tv all the time all day . The red light kept coming on when I tried to use the speak button , then it would say pair device - duuuh it already is - stupid thing lol I used ur instructions and what worked for mine was holding the home button for 10 sec .I have music again 👍Thanks sooo much you are a life saver😜🥰

[@3Brandon11]

I F*CKING LOVE YOU!!! I just spent an hour on the phone with Amazon customer service, AFTER trying all of the reset steps I found online. Nothing worked. I simply disconnected the Fire TV power, took out the batteries and replaced them. Worked like a charm!! Thank you!!!

[@mikesanders2447]

so glad i watched this and learned that the inside of remote was dirty from cheap batteries. cleaned it out and presto back in business ! thank you smartdnsproxy

[@nikkivandermallie6298]

Thanks so much! My problem was some battery residue on the connectors. At first look there didn't seem to be much. There was just enough on them to make the remote not work. I wouldn't have thought to take a closer look had you not suggested it.

[@callumanderson7132]

Thank you, great video - got my remote working again in minutes 👍

[@jesuscarreno6733]

[@jayhouse3149]

An hour ago I selected to watch Die Hard With a Vengeance on Amazon Prime using Fire Stick 4K 3rd gen. The movie came on and a minute later, the picture turned a 60 inch screen into millions of tiny pixels and I thought my TV just died! The Fire Stick remote stopped working at the same time of pixilation. Odd that the Fire Stick remote's volume and power functions worked but nothing else!?? Put fresh batteries in and I followed your instructions and everything was good again right up until I selected to watch the Die Hard movie again with same pixilation and remote problem, so I repeated your procedure and we're good again! I didn't try a third viewing of the Die Hard movie, I don't wanna be stressed out again! I've been using the Fire Stick TV for 5 weeks without any problems until Die hard!

[@sahilaggarwal2004]

Woah man thanks, tried everything nothing worked but then I checked for acid marks on the connectors and you were right! Thanks a lot man❤
