I’m having trouble pairing my Firestick remote and need help or suggestions on how to connect it properly. What steps should I follow to pair the remote successfully?
 
It takes 10 seconds to press the Home button when you are close to your Firestick. Wait until the light flashes or an on screen display shows that the remote has been successfully paired.
 
To pair a Firestick remote, plug in your Fire TV Stick and turn on the TV. Insert batteries into the remote, then press and hold the Home button for about 10 seconds until the pairing message appears on screen.
 
To pair a Firestick remote:
  1. Direct Pairing: Hold the Home button for 10–20 seconds until the light blinks.
  2. Replacement Remote: Go to Settings > Controllers & Bluetooth > Amazon Fire TV Remotes > Add New Remote using your phone app or old remote.
 
The Fire Stick should be plugged and your television turned on in order to pair a Fire TV Stick remote. Press the Home button of the remote up to an approximation of 10 seconds until the LED flashes. Wait to get the confirmation on the screen. In case it is not matching, restart Fire Stick and repeat.
 
Unplug your Firestick, wait 60 seconds, and plug it back in. Once the home screen loads, press and hold the Home button for 10 seconds. The remote light will flash, confirming the pairing is successful.
