Trouble with LG TV remote

    We have a 50” LG 3D Smart TV (about 2 years old now, don’t have model number to h d)

    The remote has just started to act up. When we hit volume up/down, it opens a setting menu instead. We’ve tried new batteries and the usual tricks, but to no avail. Does anytime have any ideas?

    Is there another remote being fired off inadvertently at the same time causing confusion for the tv ? Once had a couple of hours troubke-shooting a similar problem, turned out there was another remote stuck in the side of a sofa cushion permanently firing a signal, result: mayhem.

    There’s usually a button press sequence to reset the remote - it could have accidentally been set to another device - check the manual or web for info,

    Otherwise last resort is to try a factory reset of the TV - it will mean re-tuning etc afterwards but it should isolate the remote itself as the problem, meaning a replacement.

    Hope that helps,

    Ritz.

    Thanks for the response. There’s no other remote besides the UPC remote.

    I can’t seem to find thereset sequence for the remote. I’ve searched online.

    We did a TV reset this evenin, no joy.

    In the end, we programmed the UPC remote and it’s doing the job for now
