How to Program Roku Replacement Remote
Are you looking to program a Roku replacement remote? Whether your original remote has stopped working or you’ve lost it, programming a new one is a straightforward process. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to program your Roku replacement remote, ensuring that you can continue enjoying your favorite shows and movies without any interruptions.
Step 1: Gather the Necessary Equipment
Before you begin, make sure you have the following items ready:
– Roku replacement remote
– Roku device
– A small flathead screwdriver (if your Roku device has a battery cover)
Step 2: Power On Your Roku Device
Turn on your Roku device by pressing the power button on the device itself or by using the original Roku remote if it’s still working. Ensure that your Roku device is connected to the internet and that it’s powered on.
Step 3: Open the Roku Settings
Using the Roku replacement remote, press the home button to access the Roku home screen. Then, navigate to the settings menu by pressing the right arrow button until you see the “Settings” option. Select “Settings” by pressing the OK button.
Step 4: Enter the Programming Code
In the settings menu, scroll down and select “System.” Then, choose “Advanced System Settings.” Look for the “Remote” option and select it. You should see a prompt asking you to enter the programming code for your replacement remote.
Step 5: Program the Remote
To program the Roku replacement remote, you’ll need to enter a specific code. The code you need will depend on the brand of your replacement remote. Common codes include:
– 0123 (for a universal remote)
– 0000 (for a remote with a power button)
– 1111 (for a remote with a volume button)
Press the “Enter” button on your replacement remote and enter the code using the number buttons. If the code is correct, your Roku device will beep, and the remote will be programmed. If the code is incorrect, try entering a different code until you find the right one.
Step 6: Test the Remote
After programming the remote, test it to ensure that it’s working correctly. Press the power button on the remote to turn on your Roku device, and use the other buttons to navigate through the menus and control playback.
Step 7: Replace the Battery (if necessary)
If your Roku device has a battery cover, you may need to replace the batteries in the replacement remote. Use the small flathead screwdriver to remove the battery cover, insert new batteries, and then secure the cover back in place.
Congratulations! You’ve successfully programmed your Roku replacement remote. Now you can enjoy uninterrupted entertainment on your Roku device. If you encounter any issues during the programming process, consult the user manual for your Roku device or the manufacturer’s instructions for your replacement remote.
