The fact that both Wii remotes are having the same problem is very suspicious. Maybe there is a mobile device that's sending out a disturbing signal? (similar to the signal that tells them to turn off after the Wii has been turned off)


i was thinking the same thing, but i believe it might just be a problem with the WII itself


Hmm... I don't know. Then there shouldn't be any problem to turn them on as long as the Wii is unplugged.

Except that no Wii remotes will turn on without the Wii having power.

@spenderz... For the 5 seconds the Wii remotes are on... are you able to use them (can you point at the screen and such)? If not then they may have lost sync with the Wii... and if they don't get a return signal from the Wii they turn off.

While it's turned on and in the Wii menu, open the panel on the front of the Wii (where the SD card slot is) and press the red button, then a.s.a.p. press the red button under the battery cover on one of the Wii remotes (the batteries need to be in of course)

Having said that... that wouldn't explain why the remotes refuse to do anything after they turn off until you take out and replace the batteries.

Edit: (also I just re-read the OP and I missed the part you mentioned about re-synching... sorry. Unless when you say re-synch you mean the soft re-synch, but you would need a working Wii remote to do that with other remotes so I guess not)
