The new handset does not control the sky q box. volume or turn the tv off

I reported that some of the functions on the sky Q handset was not working.  Sky sent me a new handset but this did not correct the fault.

The handset does not control the volume or turn off the TV.

Have you paired the remote handset with the television?

Neither of those is a Q box function.

Have you paired it and set it up for your particular brand of TV?

Hi @Tim19571 

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 remote led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
