sierrahutto,

 

Try pressing the 'Guide' button on the upper right corner of the remote and see if you can change channels. If not the remote may need to be readdressed. From the System Information screen follow the steps below!

Addressing Remote to Receiver:

1.) Go to System Info screen.
2.) Hold down the SAT button until all mode lights light up.
3.) Enter a number between 1 and 15 using the numeric keypad on the remote.
4.) Press the pound (#) button.
5.) Once the SAT button blinks three times, press record.
6.) Test remote and see if it works.

If the problem continues feel free to reach me here or at [email protected] and I would be happy to try some additional steps!
