Right button not working - Roku Express 4K+ | Roku Streaming Device 4K/HDR

Please help,.  Same issue as everyone else with the right button not working any longer.  I have a Roku Express 4K+ | Roku Streaming Device 4K/HDR Roku.  I bought two of these at the same time and one remote works and the other no longer works.  I tried batteries, re-pairing, resetting, etc and nothing works.  Seems like a defect in some remotes.  Is it possible to obtain a replacement remote?  Please let me know my options

thanks

Re: Right button not working - Roku Express 4K+ | Roku Streaming Device 4K/HDR

I have a Roku Express 4K+ with a Roku Voice remote.  I followed your instructions unpowering the Roku and then re-pairing the remote again and it still did not fix my right button.  It appears to me it is a mechanical button issue or the electronics inside the remote.  Every other button works on the remote.

Here is the info your requested:

  • The issue started slowly where the button intermittently worked and then I started trying different fixes such as changing batteries, turning on and off, rebooting, re-pairing etc and nothing worked and now the button totally doesn’t work
  • Roku Model # 3941X2
  • Roku Serial #:  X02200PTE39A
  • Device ID:        SOHAK37TE39A

Please let me know next steps to resolve
