My LG TV remote control is not working anymore. Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,

I don’t really know who to turn to...
I bought an LG television two years ago that has worked perfectly until tonight.

Today, I can no longer use the remote control.
I first tried changing the batteries, but that's not the problem... I turned the TV off, unplugged it, plugged it back in... took out the batteries, put them back in...
nothing works, the TV no longer responds to its remote control.

Does anyone have any information? A miracle solution? ;-)

Thanks!

Your remote might be coming to the end of its life; get a universal one, it’s as simple as that.

Good evening, I also have a similar issue: the menu appears by itself, the input selection changes on its own, and very often the remote control doesn't respond anymore. But when I take out the batteries, the problem persists. It's really annoying, especially since everything was working fine until last night. Was it the same for you? Did the universal remote solve everything?

Are you sure that even after removing the batteries from the remote, it still worked? Because I can’t understand how, without batteries, the remote could emit any sort of interference. A friend of mine who repairs TVs thinks that it's more likely a faulty control board. So that's why I would like to be sure that you actually removed the batteries from the remote and that it still worked afterwards and that it worked with a universal remote.

Hello.
Actually, my problem wasn't the same as yours... if you look closely at my very first message, I said that my remote control doesn't respond to anything, I didn't say that the TV is working on its own...

What I said afterwards is that the remote control solved my problem... but since it's clearly not the same as yours, I don't know??...

Maybe you should trust your repairman friend, rather than someone who turns to a forum because they don't know anything about it!

Maybe you should just try buying a universal remote, giving it a shot, and if it doesn't work, return it to the store (if that's possible without damaging the package when opening it)

Have a good day.

Hello,
I have a similar problem with my LG bought a week ago, the input button doesn't work, the volume goes up by itself, the left arrow turns off the screen, the numeric buttons work poorly, etc... Can we fix this issue by resetting the remote control as much as possible, without having to return to the store?
Thank you in advance.
