Hi - I recently bought a Roku IR simple remote for my TCL ROKU TV but can’t pair. The remote does not hve an “on” button nor does it have the pairing button.

i called Roku and they said this remote should work as a replacement but I can for the life of me pair it.  Did they recommend the wrong remote...am I doing something wrong..please help! Ty in advance

They were wrong as you found out, no roku remote without a tv power key will work on any Roku tv, those are stand alone roku's remotes for such models as the express, premiere, and ultra. Roku doesn't sell IR Roku tv remotes that you would have to get from tv manufacturer. Roku does sell Wifi Roku tv remotes, which do have pairing button in the battery compartment. It won't work on your tv straight away, it has to be paired first.
