My Aluminium Apple TV 4K Siri remote has run out of charge.

I have tried all your suggestions but to no avail - the remote is still not charging.
Strangely, the volume control and mute functions do work but none of the other functions. Which makes me think there is still some charge in the remote’s battery.

-Try a different charger
-Try plugging into a different wall outlet
-try resetting the remote with the following steps:
If your remote still isn't working as expected, try restarting your remote.
If you still can't get it to work reach out to Apple for support. If it is still under warranty then they'll more than likely replace it. If it's outside of your warranty then you can get it replaced at an out of warranty price.

You're killing me dude.
I came here for the answer to the same problem you're having and when you figure it out you don't even post what the answer is. I'm still here with a bricked remote.
Try to charge the Siri Remote as described in Apple’s support documentation.
Charge the Siri Remote - Apple Support
There are no indicators on the remote itself to show that it is charging.
You can find the battery charge level in Settings on the Apple TV box.
If somehow the pairing was lost, then you can pair and connect it again.
If the issue persists after all that, then contact Apple for assistance.
Physical remote defects may be diagnosed in an Apple Store or by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
Hello there!
Does the charger you use for charging the remote, work?
Try a different cable or wall adapter.
Also, does the charger physically fit in the port of the remote? It is possible that there is dust stuck in the port.

If this didn't help at all, than you can try to reset your Apple TV.

Thanks Libby, got it sorted eventually. Not exactly sure what I did to fix it but I just tried different combinations of buttons and suddenly the system rebooted. Anyway, all good now. Thanks evryone for your help.
I am having the same problem. I charged it all night. Its not the phone as it charges my phone. I tried another outlet. It wont turn on. My tv is not touch screen. I need the remote to use it. I have been using google chrome cast to watch TV. At least the works.
Try to pair again, as described in:
