KlikyOpen Settings › Equipment Control › Manage Equipment › TV › Change TV, pick your TV brand and follow the test: the Fire TV asks you to press Power and Volume and confirm what happened. Point the remote at the TV during the test, because these buttons use infrared. The Lite remote has no TV buttons at all.

Set up TV control
- On the Fire TV open Settings › Equipment Control › Manage Equipment.
- Choose TV, then Change TV. To add a soundbar or receiver, use Add Equipment.
- Pick the brand and follow the prompts. You press Power to turn the TV off and on, then Volume, and confirm each result.
- If the first code fails, the Fire TV offers the next one for that brand.
Volume works but power doesn’t (or the reverse)
The two can travel by different routes. Volume is sent by infrared from the remote to the TV. Power can also go through the HDMI cable using HDMI‑CEC. If one fails:
- Turn on HDMI‑CEC in the TV’s settings (Anynet+ on Samsung, SimpLink on LG, Bravia Sync on Sony) and under Settings › Display & Sounds › HDMI CEC Device Control on the Fire TV.
- Run Change TV again and try the next code.
- Point the remote at the TV’s sensor. Infrared does not pass through cabinet doors.
Check the batteries
Infrared for volume draws more power than Bluetooth for navigation. A remote that still moves around the menus but will not change volume often just needs new batteries.
Remotes without volume buttons
The Alexa Voice Remote Lite, shipped with the Fire TV Stick Lite, has no power or volume keys. You can upgrade to the standard Alexa Voice Remote, described in Fire TV remote replacement, or ask Alexa to change the volume if HDMI‑CEC is on.
Volume from your phone
A phone has no infrared, so a remote app sends volume over the network. With a Fire TV Stick this relies on HDMI‑CEC to the TV. If the TV itself is a smart TV on your Wi‑Fi, Kliky can connect to the TV as a second device and control its volume and power directly.
