Remote not working at all

I have a simple remote that quit working. Changing the batteries didn’t help, and the roku can’t find my remote when I try to use the settings menu to find it. My roku is almost brand new. How do I get a new remote? Do I have to pay for a new one?

Re: Remote not working at all

Hi @Bcaves

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community.

Please reply here with the serial number of your Roku device associated with the affected remote. It can be found at the back or underneath the player itself. I'll be able to further assist you from there.


All the best,

Re: Remote not working at all.. Replacement does not work

Similar but worse problem.  Original simple remote on a Roku Express stopped working after several months.  Continued using mobile app for remote.  Recently purchased a replacement remote from Roku. it does not work at all, but I can see that it is sending a signal.

Express is Model 3930X and SN is S00839DHN4WS,

Any help would be appreciated.

Kariza,

I did start with the troubleshooting guide. The only recommnedations for the simple remote is to take out the batteries and reinstall them, which we already tried with no luck.
