    What can you do if the remote passes all of the steps leading up to pushing the 981, but the 981 does not trigger any lights to appear? I can’t get beyond this step.

    • @strategyandperformance
      @strategyandperformance  Před 2 lety

      Do the lights in the remote turn on when you push any button?
      If yes next step, no replace batteries with NEW
      NEXT STEP
      After that push and hold the mute button at the same time and hold, if it blinks twice slowly release right away and enter the code
      If no lights flash go to next step. If they flash you are set. If you have a genie remote, you need to program to RF for it to work without having to point to the box
      NEXT STEP
      If the lights worked only when you pushed the select and Mute button, but are not working now, replace with new batteries. If you have replaced the batteries with fresh ones, make sure you are getting the two slow blinks correct. If they are but your remote does not blink 4 times after the 981, check to see if it changes the channel, if it does, the factory settings have been restored. If you can’t change the channel, you may need a new remote.
      Before you buy a remote, let me know how old is your directv box.

      That is the downside of the DIRECTV remote. You cannot navigate through your TV apps it only allows you to control the volume and the power button. You can only navigate through the DIRECTV menu and the options it offers.

      After changing the batteries, if it’s blinking red, whenever you push a button, it means that something got damaged in the remote.
      You can try programming to factory settings, but if it gives you a red light as you’re trying to do that you need a new remote. I have a link in the description for remote controls.

      There is an internal malfunction. Try this:
      1. Replace the batteries, and reset to factory settings
      2. Push each button 10 times (if a button pad is stuck internally, this can unstick it.)
      3. Look for cracks, is any your unit is probably damaged. Replace it at this point. If you are adventurous Do the next step.
      4. If adventurous, Before buying a new one open the remote and clear out any debris or moisture. Re-assemble and test.

    My arrow keys don’t work! I can’t figure out how to get to settings.

      Oh no!!! Did you do the button test as shown in the video? If you push the button and the light turns on the button works, you will need to then program factory settings. If the lights don’t turn, but other buttons lien on the light, the remote is probably bad. I would try replacing batteries before ordering one. I have a link to the remote I used in the video in the description. Let me know if you were able to fix it.
