What to do if Metz LCD TV remote control not working?

K
Kimberly SmithJul 30, 2025
If your Metz LCD TV isn't responding to the remote, several factors could be at play. First, ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the TV. Direct sunlight on the TV's infrared sensor can also interfere, so shield the sensor from the sun. Weak batteries are a common culprit, so try installing new ones. Also, verify that the TV is powered on via the mains switch. If none of these steps work, the issue might be with the internal processor; try turning the TV off at the mains switch, waiting a few seconds, and then turning it back on.
