    This is a good deal Ryan. I am glad you posted this because I can imagine the frustration of people who are having to buy remote after remote only for them to not work, that would suck. This method is similar to resetting the PCM or ECM on a car where you unhook from a dedicated power source and turn the key over to let the boards run down power and reset.

TCL called me and the lady on the phone had me me do this trick. I couldn't find any information online for this so I thought I should make a quick video explaining how to do it because I knew others had to be in the same situation as me and at the very least it may save someone a phone call to TCL support and at the very worst it may prevent someone from wasting money on a new tv.

    For some reason (probably sitting on it and pressing buttons as a result) the remote unpairs from the device. To start the pairing process..... make sure the remote has power. Turn TV on. Press and hold the HOME and OK buttons then follow prompt. FYI...... remote WILL work unpaired but you have to install a laser sight to make sure the signal is hitting the receiver accurately. Lol.
