Have you tried to restart just the remote, or tried to pair the remote again, using the procedures as described in:

If your Siri Remote or Apple TV Remote isn't working - Apple Support


Note that the remote will work with one Apple TV box at a time. Pairing with a different unit will unpair for the other unit.

Hi,

I've tried that many times but without success.

I've tried a different Remote which works with my other Apple TV but still no luck.

I have reinstalled the OS via I-tunes and the UCB-C connection but still no pairing.

My Apple TV is Model No. A1675

My Remote is Model No. A1513.
