Wii Remote Not Working Correctly (Lights Still Flashing)

Wii & Wii mini

Lights flashing on the Wii Remote indicate that it has not been able to successfully sync with your Wii console.

What to do

Install a fresh set of batteries.
Clear all syncs from the Wii console.
Reset the Wii remote.
Sync the Wii Remote with the Wii console.
If fresh batteries do not help, there might be an issue with your Wii Remote or Wii console. Try the steps above using another Wii Remote.
Ensure that you are using a licensed Wii Remote. The licensed Wii Remote has the model number printed on the bottom near where the controller expansions plug in. (e.g. - Nunchuk, Wii MotionPlus.)
- Licensed Wii Remote - RVL 003
- Licensed Wii Remote Plus - RVL 036
If you are using an unlicensed accessory, a licensed accessory may resolve the issue.

If another Wii Remote is working properly, then the issue is with the first Wii Remote and it will need to be replaced.

If you're unable to try another Wii Remote, or neither Wii Remote will sync, it could be the system at fault.
