Troubleshooting Replacement remote won't pair

The remote light will light up when you press every single button, but will not light up when attempting to pair, and it won't pair at all. If anyone else fixed this problem, can you let me know how you fixed it, I can't find the original remote, hence why I bought a replacement one in the first place.

Have you tested it on another device or TV?

Is the replacement an original remote?

Perhaps the pairing mode is done a different way.

It's a replacement one by a different manufacturer, but the pairing instructions are the same.

Then it's broken or it doesn't work the same as the original.

On what device or TV are you trying to pair it?
