As you can see, the IR emitter is more visible in a darker room and quite hard to see in a brightly lit room. Note: Both photos show the same remote being tested.
If no light is seen from the IR emitter, then it is likely that the remote is defective. If the remote is emitting an IR signal, but the TV still does not turn on or respond, confirm that nothing is blocking the TV's IR receiver (located underneath the TCL logo). If there’s clear line of sight, and the TV still does not turn on, then the issue could lie with the IR receiver on the TV.
The enhanced remotes connect over your wireless network and do not need to be pointed directly at your TCL Roku TV. This easy-to-use remote needs to be paired during initial TV setup. To resolve any issues with your enhanced remote, refer to the recommended steps below:
