Replacement Remote

Hello, I need a Sky Stream remote replacement. My remote stopped working properly - after I changed the batteries it comes on but it can only open the search bar or turn off. This seems to be a recurring problem that others have faced as well and has no solution. Could you please provide a replacement?

@Anurang There are a couple of things you can also try.

 


Reset 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. 

Another option is to remove the batteries for several hour (perhaps overnight) then put them back in and see if that helps.

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