    I cannot thank you enough for this video!! Our office had received this tv at the end of 2019. It stopped working around a year ago and I didn't know how to fix it, so I just left it. This week, I was determined to get it working in hopes to start playing music on it again, so we could give a good ambience when people are coming in and out of our office. I watched many UA-cam videos and none were successful. I called Toshiba and Amazon and neither of them were helpful. I read countless forums and was becoming quite discouraged. I actually started looking at new TV's to buy. I decided to try UA-cam one more time. I changed my search criteria a little bit and you were one of the first videos to pop up. Every step worked just like you showed in your video. Our office is sooo ecstatic that we now have a working tv!! Thank you times a million!! You have no idea how grateful we are. :) :)

    OMG, thank you so much. I really thought my tv was broken. I even looked at Best Buy and Amazon for a new tv. But I decided first to check UA-cam. There were quite a few videos about how to, but yours was clear and easy. Now my tv is back on. Thank you again

    For anyone who's remote works on the TV after factory reset but doesn't want to pair on pairing screen, just hook up an ethrenet cable to the TV from your router and use the app and it will refresh and update and go to the menu. Then unplug cable then use the remote to connect wirelessly

      I brought this kind of tv a year ago and just set it up and discovered the pairing issue. Best Buy told me they could not help and I would have to pay for geek squad service to have it looked at. I explained the tv say I. The box for a year and I’m just finding out the tv has issues. They I called geek squad, and was hung up on . I found your comment and tried this , and it worked. Thanks 👍

    This is very useful, but what I need to know is: where can I get a replacement remote that can actually pair with my TV after a reset? My kids somehow completely broke my original remote, it is done, and all the replacement options I can find online say they are IR only and cannot be used after a factory reset. I'm not sure if I'll ever need to do one, but I'd like a remote that can work after one just in case I do need to!

    Hi, followed instructions for factory reset. Now I’m stuck on Searching for Remote screen. Tried 3 remotes - old one insignia which was acting up and basically dead , new replacement remote off Amazon , and insignia remote that I know works with another fire tv in the house. None will pair. I tried the suggestion of using Ethernet code to router and the Fire App to pair remote . The fire app pairs with the rebooted tv, but still cannot get past the “searching for remote” screen.
    Any suggestions?
    This is an Insignia TV.
    TIA

    Hi. I did the reset like you showed in the video. But when it came to re pairing the remote, since I'm using a universal remote, it doesn't seem to recognize the remote...even though I used the remote to select the language.
    Syncing the remote works(the tv turns off and on again), but the screen is still stuck on the "searching for your remote" screen.
    Any advice?
