Hi all, Im facing some problem with my Wiimote.. It doesnt light up when I attach new batteries and can't play. Normally when we put batteries the led is lighted. Do you reckon my Wiimote has gone kaput..

Thanks

try re-sync it with the wii machine?

Are u sure the battery is ok? If you're sure...then try re-synching it. You know, push the red button on the console (near the sd card slot).

Hi thanks for the input. Tried with new batteries and re sync..but nothing is happening.

Is it normal if the wiimote is not being snyc the blue LED does not light up?

Regards

Your Wiimote should be able to light-up as long as you have batteries in them.

If wiimote doesn't respond after putting in batteries, try taking them out, and putting them back in again and see if it works.

Other than that, I think your Wiimote is kaputedz already.

Ok thanks for your input.. Looks like its kaputed...Know any good priced wiimote which I can purchased? My daughter of 7 yrs is jumping up and down not able to play her Wii.

Thanks

i thought to sync the controller, you need to push the sync button on the console as well as the wiimote, no?

it happened to me once and i managed to sync it back. i have to do this almost every time i replace the battery.

Hi when it is out of sync, did the LED lighted up when we put in the batteries?

Thanks

You only need to sync once per-Wiimote. Your first Wiimote has already been sync'ed during the manufacturing process(the one packaged with the Wii console). Additional Wiimote needs to sync, if not, you won't be able to power-on through that Wiimote. And it will be disabled every time you go to a new channel, or some loading screen.

@ badrul: Even without sync, the Wiimote should still light-up. Got two types(I also dunno why), it's either press any button, then blink once, which also doubles as a battery level checker, or sometimes it goes into discovery mode, which is blinking lights for a few seconds(like when you press 1+2 to sync through reconnect function, OR, use the sync button, it's the same).

Simply put badrul, as long as your Wiimote doesn't light up with batteries inside, there's something wrong. Don't know if there's any technicians able to repair faulty Wiimotes, but if you can't, best to replace em'. (or MAYBE Nintendo can actually replace these)

Yup... a replacement must be on the way.. Thanks again.

yes it light up. it will light up if you press any button even the wii is off.

Hrm, when I got my new wiimote, it doesnt light up after I place battery and press any button.

Only after I press the syn button both on the wiimote and wii console only it start to light up.

How do u actually snyc the wiimote? Press both button on the console and the wiimote the same time? Previously the shop did it for me and basically Im clueless. My operation manual is in Japanese so not a big help either..

Thanks

There's a picture guide in the jap manual.
U press the red button on ur wiimote (in the batery place) and then u press the red button on the wii console.

Will try that. Thanks

Well, sadly, I have a different problem than you. My XBOX 360 wireless controller kaput-ed a few weeks back. Can't be repaired and worst of all not under warranty anymore. Sheesshh ....... have to cough out money to buy a new one, the spoilt controller is now inside the box collecting dust. Guess it's a wrong move to have all consoles made in China, very poor QC, anything can happen whether you own a PS2, PS3, Wii or XBOX 360.

anything can spoil.

there is no guarantee of a product that will last.

just look at "microsoft" on their machine.

and just look at "sony" on their lens.

remember playstation1 ? it takes like what ? 2 - 3 years finally get to "stable" condition ?
