What should I do?

Didn’t see this ‘till just now.

1.) Remove CR2032 coin battery from remote check battery voltage.
Maybe try spare CR2032 battery that came with remote.

2.) Perform factory reset / default setting on A329T.

3.) After startup long press reset button on side of camera for at least 5 seconds.

4.) If that don’t work re-install the latest firmware from official website with SD Card, (V2.0_260104).
Yes, even if it’s the same firmware version sometimes that works.
OFFICIAL FIRMWARE

5.) Still no worky: SUBMIT A TICKY

A brand new “fresh” CR2032 should be 3.21V or higher.
2.9V is “half dead”.
I would remove that 2.9V battery and install a new / fresh CR20232 measuring 3.21V or higher.
Note: I was too lazy to walk to garage so I used my $5 Meter for testing AA batteries and such. lol

I just installed the remote and the ability to turn WiFi on and off is worth the purchase.

Of course you already know.
But, just in case a new user sees this you can also enable / disable Wi-Fi with the “free” voice commands, and not have to worry about losing Bluetooth pairing, or dead CR20232 coin batteries.
The voice commands are 100% accurate, and never false trigger.
Oh wait.

Thanks Chuck. I did know but I prefer the touch button. It’s a reflection of my constant battle with Siri!
