Here's how to Fix Firestick remote not working even after changing batteries:

1. **Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly.** The positive and negative ends of the batteries should be facing the correct way.
2. **Move the remote closer to the Firestick.** The remote needs to be within 10 feet of the Firestick in order to work.
3. **Unpair and repair the remote.** To do this, press and hold the **Home** and **Back** buttons on the remote for 10 seconds. Then, press and hold the **Home** button on the Firestick for 10 seconds.
4. **Reset the remote.** To do this, press and hold the **Left**, **Menu**, and **Back** buttons on the remote for 10 seconds. Then, remove the batteries from the remote and wait for 60 seconds. Put the batteries back in and try the remote again.
5. **Update the Firestick software.** To do this, go to **Settings** - **My Fire TV** - **About** - **Check for updates**.

If you have tried all of these steps and the remote is still not working, you may need to contact Amazon support for help.

Here are some additional tips that may help:

* Make sure that there are no obstacles between the remote and the Firestick.
* If you are using a case on the remote, remove it and try again.
* Try using a different remote, such as the Fire TV app on your phone or tablet.
