is your LG Magic Remote acting up and
0:02
the cursor has mysteriously disappeared
0:04
super frustrating right one minute it's
0:06
working perfectly and the next it's just
0:08
gone But don't worry I've got you
0:10
covered In this video I'll walk you
0:12
through some quick and easy fixes to get
0:14
your cursor back on the screen Whether
0:15
it vanished out of nowhere or refuses to
0:17
show up we'll sort it out together Let's
0:19
dive in and fix this If that doesn't
0:21
work the next thing to check is your
0:23
batteries Low battery power can cause
0:25
the remote to act up So swap in fresh
0:28
ones and clean the battery contacts for
0:29
a better connection Even a little dust
0:31
can interfere with the power supply So
0:33
taking a moment to wipe the contacts
0:35
might just solve your issue Let me know
0:36
in the comments if this quick fix worked
0:38
for you If your remote's buttons are
0:40
stuck they could be continuously sending
0:42
signals that prevent the cursor from
0:44
appearing Remove the batteries Press
0:46
each button firmly a few times to
0:48
unstick them Then hold the power button
0:50
for 10 seconds to drain any leftover
0:52
power Reinsert the batteries and check
0:54
if the cursor is working again If that
0:56
doesn't fix it your remote may have lost
0:58
its connection to the TV To repair it
1:01
press and hold the home and back buttons
1:03
for at least 5 seconds Once your TV
1:05
confirms the remote is disconnected
1:07
release the buttons and press any key to
1:09
reregister it This should restore the
1:11
connection instantly Want to check if
1:13
your remote is even working turn on
1:15
Bluetooth on your phone and scan for new
1:17
devices If you see something like LGMRXX
1:20
that means the remote is still active
1:21
and should reconnect to your TV Keeping
1:24
your TV updated can also prevent issues
1:26
like this Navigate to all settings
1:28
support software update and check if an
1:31
update is available If there is install
1:33
it and restart your TV Software updates
1:36
often fix remote connectivity issues so
1:38
it's always a good idea to keep your TV
1:40
up to date If updating doesn't work a
1:43
reset might be necessary Start with a
1:45
soft reset by unplugging the TV and
1:47
holding its power button for 15 seconds
1:49
before plugging it back in If that
1:51
doesn't work consider doing a full
1:53
factory reset Go to all settings general
1:56
system and select reset to initial
1:57
settings Be aware that this will erase
1:59
all personalized settings so only use it
2:02
as a last resort If you've tried all
2:04
these fixes and the remote still isn't
2:06
working you may need some advanced
2:08
troubleshooting Carefully disassemble
2:10
the remote by removing the batteries and
2:12
using a flathead screwdriver to gently
2:14
pry it open Once inside check for any
2:16
dust dirt or damage Sometimes internal
2:19
debris can block connections so clean
2:21
the circuit board and buttons with
2:22
isopropyl alcohol Let everything dry
2:24
before putting the remote back together
2:26
Then test if the cursor is working If
2:29
it's still unresponsive your remote
2:30
might be faulty and need replacing But
2:33
don't worry if you don't want to buy a
2:34
new one just yet You can use the LG TV
2:37
Plus app as a backup It works on both
2:39
Android and iOS and gives you full
2:41
