stuwii Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 on standard mode. just got a wii remote and its not working sync is taking forever
LukeLee Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 it can take a few attempts but its usually quick when it works. You are pressing the sync button on the console and on the remote at the same time?
stuwii Posted December 25, 2006 Author Posted December 25, 2006 not even the remote for the console is working i just keep trying to sync nothing is working it has not had a single problem till now
LukeLee Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 unplug the console, plug it back in, make sure batteries are okay for the remote. Turn the console on, press the sync button under the flap of the wii and the sync button on the wii (under the batter flap) at the same time. Do this a few times, if you still get nowhere you'll probably have to call Nintendo after boxing day.
That Guy Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 switch your console on, then press the sync button on a remote, then press the sync button on the console, that should then sync one of the controllers. If not keep pressing sync. This happened to me with one of my remotes.
... Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 I don't have a Wii yet, but from reading those manual scans I got the impression that you don't push both sync buttons at the same time. You push one of them first (I think it's the console one) and then you push the other one. Doesn't the manual say this?
LukeLee Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 it works now really annoying process i know, very annoying - luckily i've only had it happen about twice.

The remote one I think, so the lights are flashing, then press the console one and it registers it.
Shorty Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 I do occasionally get the problem where the remote stops responding. I don't press the sync button to sort it though, just unplug the console, take out the batteries from the remote, put them back, turn it back on using the button on the console and it fixes it. When I got a new remote I synced it with no issues whatsoever. Pressed button on the Wii for a couple of seconds, then pressed it on the remote. It wasn't even an instant move as I had to remove the battery cover in between - started working straight away.
fanman Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 it works now really annoying process Only if you do it wrong.
ViPeR Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 For me I found the only way it would work was if I pressed the SYNC button on the remote a good few seconds after I pressed the consoles SYNC. Wierd.
raven_blade2006 Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 On the same topic im impressed with the speed it takes the console to recognise a controller. Literally a few seconds..
