Help! Remote not pairing even after replacing batteries for device model 9102x!

Jump to solution

My voice remote isn't working after I changed it's batteries. I tried pressing and holding the pairing button and resetting the device multiple times but it didn't work.

My device model is 9102x. My remote holds AAA batteries, and it has the microphone pinhole below the power button. I followed the instructions on the TV screen for remote setup.

If you do not have a second Roku remote that already works with your streaming device or the Roku mobile app installed, you can restart your streaming device to put it in pairing mode. When your streaming device is powered on, it will automatically enter pairing mode and look for remotes.

Use the following steps to restart your streaming device.

  1. Remove the power cord from your streaming device
  2. Wait at least 5 seconds
  3. Re-connect the power cord

Once you see the Home screen, follow the steps in the next section to put your voice remote into pairing mode and complete the pairing process with your streaming device.

  • If your voice remote has a pairing button, it will be located either on the back of the remote or under the battery cover.
  • Press and hold the pairing button for 5 seconds, or until you see the status light begin to flash, to put your voice remote into pairing mode.

This should resolve the issue you are experiencing; however, if it is still unresolved, please reply, and we will be able to assist you further.

Thanks,
Jharra
