Hi yess it’s the original remote so I never really had to pair beside the first day, and when I changed the battery/ when I pressed the pairing button it didn’t light up it’s just looked dead and no I never noticed anything weird with it before maybe it was a tad bit slow but I just think it’s my WiFi acting up

The same happened to me. I pressed the reset button and the light started blinking but was taking too long to pair so I removed the batteries and reinserted them to try again but this time when I pressed the reset button the blinking light did not come on. It was, as you said, like it was dead. Did you ever resolve the issue? Please let me know.
