Remote won’t work

Restarting your Roku device, and your wireless router/modem is a great first step. Replacing the batteries in your remote can help.

Thanks,

Mary

Re: Remote won’t work

I have done all of that. After repairing the remote it works for a little while then stops again. The volume and power buttons always work but nothing else will.

What Roku device do you have (include the model number)?

What remote do you have (model number is in the battery compartment)?
