Why doesn't new remote for Nintendo Wii work? ?

Bought a remote to replace broken one and it will not control anything in the game. Any ideas? Thanks!

Answer 1

go to the Wii and open and in front of you will be a crack in front of it use your fingers/nails to open it then push the red button and then open the back of your remote and you ll also see a red button on there..If this doesn't work then i don't know what to say to you... if you cant understand how to do it just go to the Wii:operation manual booklet... its the grey one..
