Hello @Vitor1,
Thanks for posting in the community.
That's definitely frustrating! A controller lasting only a week on new batteries compared to the original 2 months is a significant difference. I also appreciate your effort. Let me help you with some steps to troubleshoot the controller.
Check the battery level of the Voice Remote in the Chromecast settings:
- On the Google TV home page, go to Settings.
- Scroll down and select Remotes and Accessories.
- Find the Chromecast voice remote. It will say the battery level status below the remote’s name. For example, battery level: good.
In any case, if the issue persists, please follow the steps below:
- Remove the Voice Remote batteries, and then, while reinserting the batteries, check if the LED blinks. If the LED doesn’t turn on, replace the batteries with new 1.5 V AAA batteries.
- If the LED still doesn’t blink, follow this: Unplug the USB-C connection from the Chromecast device to disconnect it from the power source. Leave the device unplugged for one minute, then plug it back in.
- Reset the voice remote. For detailed steps, click on Factory Reset Chromecast Voice Remote.
Please follow the steps and let me know how it goes, thank you.
Jorge.
