My remote just stopped working - common issue?
Was working last night. Been at work all day. Not working. Swapped for new batteries. It is lit up. Re-booted the box. Can change channels etc with the buttons on the front of the box.
Not sure if this has happened before and it just started working again. Was wondering if this is a common issue. It's a Silver Samsung box with that blue oval shaped remote. I can't see a re-set on the remote. Cheers. |

Sometimes you can press the button on the remote and the V+ doesn't react, sometimes for about a minute, but I think this happens when it is updating.
As long as it's happening only occasionally, I wouldn't worry too much about it. |

It could also be an IR interference problem. Search the forum and you'll find plenty of posts on the subject.

rebooted the box last night and then turned it off. Came home today and it is working fine. I guess it was an update messing the box up.

mine does this now and then. I just take battery out and then pop it back in. That usually solves it. If it still doesnt work i look closely at the box and see if it flashes the remote light. If it does i reboot my box as its the v+ box playing up and not responding.

Spoke too soon. Stopped working again. However, just to annoy me, is working fine when I have the remote about an inch from the box! Weak batteries? Swapped for fresh ones and same issue? Swapped for another fresh set of batteries, will still only work when the remote is an inch from the box.
It has deffo never done this before. However, I have "learned" that the remote is really strong, I just tried to snap it in half and got nowhere :mad: it better shape up or it will be meeting the wall really fast. |

Could you borrow another remote from a neighbour to try to work out where the fault lies? Any blue VM remote or a V+ one will do the job. If you are still stuck, give the Faults dept a call. |

Got up today and it is working fine. Batteries are from different packs.

Had the TV for several months and this only started the other day. Been using the remote all day fine (before I moved the screen) these things are sent to try us. |
