Airtemp Air conditioner remote control not working

If your Airtemp air conditioner remote not working problem leaves the unit stuck on the last setting, start with the simple checks before replacing parts. Install fresh batteries first, since weak or dead remote control batteries are a common reason an AC remote control is not working. If the Airtemp air conditioner still responds to the buttons on the control panel but the air conditioner is not responding to the remote, the remote control itself is likely defective and should be replaced. If a known good remote still will not operate the unit, the next likely issue is the main control board. The board contains the infrared receiver that reads the signal from the remote, and if that receiver fails, the window AC remote not working symptom can look exactly like a bad remote. RepairClinic.com can help you match the right remote control or main control board to your specific Airtemp model. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement part that fits your air conditioner.

01 - Airtemp Air Conditioner Remote Control

First, try replacing the batteries in the remote control. If installing fresh batteries doesn’t solve the problem and you can still operate the air conditioner manually, the remote control might be defective. If you think the remote control is defective, replace it.

02 - Airtemp Air Conditioner Main Control Board

The main control board has an infrared receiver that receives signals from the remote. If the infrared receiver is not working, the remote control will not be able to communicate with the control board. If you suspect the main control board is defective, replace it.

03 - Weak or Dead Remote Control Batteries

The remote control is powered by batteries which may have become too weak for the control to work. Replace the batteries with new ones to see if that resolves the issue.

04 - Replace remote control

If the unit responds correctly when the control panel buttons are pressed, but does not respond to the remote control, or only certain functions of the remote control, the remote is likely defective and will need to be replaced. Refer to owner's manual for guidance.
