Sounds like you need to reprogram your remote to teach it what TV you have.  What kind of remote do you have?

Update - None of the troubleshooting worked so I got a replacement remote under warranty and it seems to be 100% working right away.  The original remote must have become defective somehow.  The new remote paired with the TV on the first try.

Does anyone know if there are any 9400 PVR remote codes to control a TCL tv?

My TV remote (Bell Fire Slim) one day stopped working.

It will no longer turn on/off the TV, however is still functioning once the TV screen is manually turned on. 

Is there a reset function I can try to fix this issue?

New Fibe TV Remote not turning off my tv it only turns on off the Fibe receiver and my sound system ? I called technical support and they told me its either one or the other? . why does it say program your remote to control the power and volume of your tv? Im getting tired of Bells lies… nothing but problems since i got this Fibe… Satellite was so much better no issues ever even in the snow and rain!

My remote had this issue prior to a tech visit  mainly for other problems. He did a reset and this issue is gone. Have you tried to reboot the sys or re-pair?

I just has the Fibe TV installed and the remote does not work with my TCL Roku TV. Is there a fix? I told Bell that I had this TV and they said it wouldn't be a problem!

Do you mean Bell’s remote can’t control anything while the dvr box is connected to the TV?
