How to Sync Firestick Remote to Control TV Volume (100% Fix Guide)
To sync a new Firestick remote to control your TV's volume, you need to configure it to send the correct IR (infrared) signals to your TV. Here’s how to do it using your phone (since you mentioned using a phone and lost the old remote):
Ensure the Remote Supports Volume Control:
Confirm your Firestick remote has IR capabilities (most Fire TV remotes, like the Alexa Voice Remote, do). Check Amazon’s product page for your remote model.
Set Up the Fire TV App:
Download the Amazon Fire TV app (iOS/Android) on your phone.
Connect your phone to the same Wi-Fi network as your Firestick.
Open the app, select your Fire TV device, and enter the 4-digit code shown on your TV (if prompted).
Use the app’s virtual remote to navigate (swipe for directions, tap to select).
Access Equipment Control Settings:
In the Fire TV app, navigate to Settings - Equipment Control - Manage Equipment.
Select TV (or add a new device if none is listed).
Choose Change TV or Set Up TV to start the configuration process.
Sync the Remote for Volume Control:
Follow the on-screen prompts to select your TV brand (e.g., Samsung, LG, Sony). If your brand isn’t listed, you may need to try manual setup.
The Firestick will send test IR signals to your TV. When prompted, press the Volume Up or Power button on the new remote to test if it controls the TV.
Confirm if the TV responds (e.g., volume changes or power toggles). If it works, select Yes in the app. If not, select No to try another IR code until one works.
