Sky glass wont turn on

Hi all,

 

My sky glass is on stand by all the time but over the last 2 weeks when I go to turn it on via the remote it will not come on, I have to unplug it and plug it back in then it turns on no problem. Can anyone help?

Have you tried the Standby button on the Sky Glass TV?

If that works the issue could be the remote:

 

Check the batteries
An easy way to check is to cover the buttons slightly on your Sky remote with your hand. You should see a white backlight behind the buttons. If you don't see the backlight the issue is the power with the remote, so potentially a battery issue.

Check the battery compartment to make sure the paper used to protect the battery has been fully removed. It might have ripped when being removed leaving some behind.

Still can't see the backlight? It’s likely you need to replace the two AAA batteries.

Pair the remote

Press 7 and 9 together on your Sky remote for three seconds (This resets/clears the remote)
Press 1 and 3 together for three seconds (bluetooth mode) and follow any on-screen instructions.

The next option sounds insane but a number of users have reported it resolving the issue with their remotes. You could try holding the remote at both ends and giving it a gentle twist as though you were wringing out a towel. It

If it is still not working have a look at the following guides:

If none of these options work you can request a replacement remote via this link: https://www.sky.com/help/forms/streaming-tv-remote

If you have an old Sky Q remote, you can use that as an interim solution whilst you await the new remote.

@LISAR696969 i find the most reliable and quickest way to switch on my Sky Glass is to change the settings in the Start Up and Standby to disable the power saving option and to enable the stay networked in standby option. I also always use the Home button rather than to power button as that is a toggle so its easy to turn the TV off while waiting for it to start if you are impatient.

Re: Sky glass wknt turn on

Rather than power off/on at the plug .... have you tried pressing the standby button on the side of the Glass TV?
