Google TV remote not working and overheating

Ruuly — Thu, 19 Oct 2023 18:08:29 GMT

Hi there my Google TV remote is no longer working this morning. I have attempted a hard reset via removing the batteries and holding the home button. The remote appears to be non functional as the LED is not flashing after the hard reset or when I try to pair it. Also the batteries get very hot as well as the middle of the device near the home button. Any known fixes for this?

Hi Ruuly,

Thanks for posting and for being a step ahead of us. Since you’ve already attempted to factory reset your remote, let’s try this workaround and let me know how it goes:

Remove the batteries and give it a 2 to 3 minute rest.
While the batteries are out, press and hold down the power button for 15 to 20 seconds to fully drain any static power left on the chipset/motherboard of the Chromecast Voice remote, then release the button.
Let the remote rest again for 2 to 3 minutes. Take this time to unplug the Chromecast device from power and give it a 1 minute rest before you plug it back in.
Test it and observe.
If it persists, you can factory reset the remote one last time and pair it again.

We look forward to your response.

Thanks,

Kimy
