Link SkyQ remote to Samsung T5 series TV

When I try and link my Sky Q remote to my new Samsung Series T5 TV it just displays Remote control setup please wait.

It never comes up with a list of Tvs or anything. 

Any thoughts. Can't believe they won't link.

Hi @JC5800 

Reboot your Q Box.

To reboot press Standby on your Sky Q remote (if the box responds to the remote), and then switch off and unplug at the mains.
Wait at least 30 secs and then Plug back in and switch your Sky Q box back on at the mains.
Wait for the on screen instructions to disappear and the front led to turn Amber. Then wait for 30 secs before you press Home on your Sky Q remote or if this is not working press the standby button on the front of the Q box (Amber led)

note: some features may take up to 5 minutes to return.

 

Then

Try completly resetting your Bluetooth remote.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times.
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
