My 900 remote will go blank. I take out the batgtery and replace it and it re boots. It is happening more frequently. Will a new battery fix this?

It is not the battery. Try reinstalling the firmware.If that does not do it there is a problem with the circuit board in the remote. I had to purchase a new remote.

From what you describe, I would say that replacing the battery may very well solve your problem. Check the little battery style icon in the upper right corner of the display. If it shows red or possibly only a single green block after you have had it on the charger, then your battery is likely weak or failing. If it indicates that your battery is fully charged by displaying all green blocks, you may then have some other problem. Either way, a new battery is relatively inexpensive and would be well worth a try to fix your problem.

This is the same problem I had. In addition my remote would constantyly need re-charging. I replaced the battery and voila! the remote worked as it did when i first bought it - no more going blank and no ridiculously frequent charges.

Sounds like the remote has a software problem that is affecting the battery. Try updating the firmware first then test it out with a new battery replacement.

It might help to clean the contacts on the battery with a clean pencil eraser first. And the contacts on the remote, if they canbe easily reached. (Got an 880, so just a guess) Update the firmware, too, then if that persists a new battery might be the thing to do.

That is what was happening to me and once I replaced the battery it was fine and has been now for months.

If it is used it is probably defective. Check that the batteries are good and inserted in the remote properly. Sometimes new batteries are bad, especially the ones that come with a unit. Some of these units are new but several years old.

I have had a unit for quite a few years. I thought my battery had died and replacements were expensive. Started looking at just getting a new unit. Then I put the battery back in and it has worked fine for what has now been a couple more years. Don't know what happened, might have been a connection problem????

We've had our Harmony 676 for about 3 years. I replaced the batteries early in December and got the "replace batteries" message again before the end of the month. Maybe the batteries weren't very fresh. That's the fastest the remote has used batteries.MJH

Double check the batteries in the remote, to be sure they are in correctly. Mine is working great, and I love it.

I have added a photo showing the remote with the battery compartment open. That should help.

I found the buttons on the remote somewhat difficult to press and get a response. Also, you must get close and be absolutely direct, straight on, in pointing it. If it still doesn't work, contact the company. They have very good support and if they can't help you, will most certainly replace it.

If the remote still doesn't work after replacing the battery, contact Haman Kardon for a replacement. I've found their customer support to be good. Another suggestion would be to find a good replacement remote that integrates the sound bar functions along with the rest of the home theater. Logitech has several integrated remotes that are compatible with the SB 30.

I use the battery in a "Monster TV remote control. A back panel comes off the remote an the battery is exposed.Good luck. My remote is not working, but I think the problem is something beside the battery.Dick Ernest

Reload program if you have access to it. Pull battery to reboot remote is another option to try.

Not trying to be flipped, but did you make sure the batteries are in correctly and making contact? It has happened to me before that I misread or just assumed how the batteries went in. I bought 2 of these remotes and had no problems with them at all... Could also be you got a DOA remote... Sorry...

Please pull out and check the battery, may be the battery is opposition. The remote please aim at the receiver. Thank you!

I would take the remote apart and see if a wire just came loose because they're too new to have the battery died on you like thatand if you do find out that the battery did die if you cheaper to replace the battery since you already have the park by any other replacement pieces other colors or the remote

I have not had this problem so I may not be of much help. However, did the sreen suddenly stop working? Do you get any sound? I assume you tried both the remote and the button controls on the top of the box. Do your voltages match? (Assuming you are in S. America and not Columbia, Tennessee, USA!)
