Troubleshooting Altice Remote Blinking & Not Working
Quick Navigation
As we mentioned above, there are three reasons for this issue: the batteries are not working, and maybe the remote is getting false signals. Also, there can be Bluetooth pairing issues.
There are also some reasons, like a problem with the box or any internal system problem. The first three problems can be fixed by yourself,
but for the last two issues you have to contact your customer care, or you can directly visit their showroom. Today we are going to tell you some practical steps to fix this.
1) Restart the Altice Box
The very first step is to restart, to restart your Altice receiver. First, try with your remote.
- If your remote is not working, then unplug the receiver directly.
- After unplugging, wait 3-4 minutes, then plug it in again.
- Operate it with your remote and notice if it is Blinking again or not.
2) Check Bluetooth Connection
- Optimum Altice has a feature that can be paired through Bluetooth. Sometimes Bluetooth connection can also cause a problem in pairing with the receiver. To fix this problem, take your remote, and turn it off and its batteries.
- Now wait for 4-5 minutes and insert it again. And notice whether the light is still blinking or not.

4) Reprogram / Re-pair Your Remote
If you change or restart your remote batteries, you must pair them up again with the receiver.
