  Your Yamaha Receiver's remote control might not be working due to several reasons. First, ensure you are within the operational range of 20 ft (6 m) and within a 30-degree angle from the front panel. Also, strong light sources like direct sunlight or fluorescent lamps can interfere with the remote control sensor. Try adjusting the lighting or repositioning the Yamaha Receiver. Weak batteries can also cause the remote to malfunction; replace all batteries to resolve this. Finally, verify that the remote control ID matches the Yamaha Receiver's ID and adjust if necessary.
