How to Connect Firestick Remote to TV (Fast Tutorial)
To connect a Firestick remote to control your TV (e.g., for volume and power) and ensure it’s properly paired with your Firestick using your phone (since you lost the old remote), follow these steps. This assumes the remote supports IR (infrared) for TV control.
Verify Remote Compatibility:
Confirm your Firestick remote has IR capabilities for TV control (e.g., Alexa Voice Remote with volume buttons). Check Amazon’s product page for your remote model.
Reset and Pair the Remote with Firestick:
Remove batteries from the remote, press and hold the Home button for 10 seconds, then insert fresh AAA batteries (high-quality, non-rechargeable, like Duracell).
Set up the Amazon Fire TV app (iOS/Android) on your phone, connected to the same Wi-Fi as your Firestick.
Open the app, select your Fire TV device, and enter the 4-digit code shown on your TV (if prompted).
In the app, go to Settings, Controllers & Bluetooth Devices, Amazon Fire TV Remotes, Add New Remote.
Press and hold the Home button on the remote for 10-20 seconds within 10 feet of the Firestick until an on-screen confirmation appears.
Connect Remote to Control TV (Volume/Power):
In the Fire TV app, navigate to Settings, Equipment Control, Manage Equipment, TV, Change TV (or Set Up TV if not configured).
Select your TV brand (e.g., Samsung, LG, Sony). If not listed, choose Other.
Follow prompts to test IR signals. Press the Volume Up or Power button on the remote when instructed.
Confirm if the TV responds (e.g., volume changes or power toggles). Select Yes in the app if it works, or No to try another IR code.
Save settings once volume and power work.
