  • TiVo is not responding to the remote.

    I noticed the other day my TiVo HD would not chnage chanels or go to the guide. Basicly not responding to the remote at all, no amber light flashing.

    I reset the TiVo, pulled plug, and it was fine for a week. Last night same trouble, this time reseting it did nothing. I called TiVo support and the want me to pay 150 for an exchange unit. I will then loose everything I have setup.

    Any ideas?

    I was actually thinking about getting a new drive for this one soon too, you guys have great deals and upgrades.

    What model TiVo do you have? I assume you have changed batteries in the remote? Do you get any difference if you are 1" from the front of the TIVO?

      I have tried the batteries. The remote works on my other TiVos.

        Late last night the TiVo started working again. Guess I'll have to see how long it goes this time.

        Thanks for the help though.
