If your VIZIO remote isn’t working, try the following steps to fix your remote:
- Remove any obstacles from the front of the television
- Most VIZIO TV's have the remote sensor in the bottom left or bottom right corner of the television. Make sure there is nothing in front of or blocking the sensors.
- Try new batteries.
- Insert new batteries into the remote. Make sure the batteries are correctly installed with the positive and negative ends in the right direction.
- Power Cycle the remote. To do this:
- Remove the batteries from the remote.
- Press every button on the remote at least one (1) time to drain any residual power. This also helps to check for stuck buttons.
- Re-insert the batteries back into the remote.
- Check to see if the remote is now working.
- Try using a different remote.
- If you have another VIZIO TV in your home try using that remote. Most VIZIO remotes work with most VIZIO TV's.
- If your VIZIO remote is still not working, you may need a new remote.
- If you are still within your manufacturers warranty please contact VIZIO Support by calling Monday - Friday from 7am - 11pm Central time or Sat. & Sun. from 9am - 6pm central time at 877-878-4946
