Reset your remote to infrared.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times. This will set to rrmote to infrared and it will control any Q box but needs direct line of sight.
This should allow you to clear your issue.
Then when it is working and the Q box is with green led you can re pair the remote
Make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the remote led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
