If your Sharp TV remote’s power button suddenly stops working, you may be worried about powering up the TV. But worry not, as you can use the power button on a Sharp TV to turn it on rather than using a remote control. Notably, the location of the power button will vary according to a Sharp TV’s operating system. This guide provides about the location of the power button and all possible ways to switch on your Sharp TV.

How to Turn On Sharp TV Without Power Button
It is not recommended to frequently use the Power button to turn on the TV. Instead, you can use the TV remote or a virtual remote to control your TV. Instructions for using these options are provided below.
Using the TV Remote
1. Grab the Sharp TV remote and ensure its battery compartment has fresh batteries.
2. Point the remote’s IR emitter towards your TV and press the Power button.
3. Within a few seconds, your Sharp TV will automatically turn on.
In addition to an original TV remote, you can purchase a universal remote to control your Sharp TV. Take your universal remote and pair it up using Sharp TV remote codes. Once pairing is successful, press the Power button to turn on and control the TV.
Via The Remote Apps
Additionally, you can turn your smartphone into a remote controller using the Sharp TV remote app. The table below includes the available remote apps for the Sharp TV models.

Once the installation is over, connect your Sharp TV to a WiFi network, which should be identical to your smartphone. Launch the remote app and sign in with your account. Then, navigate to the Remote tab and start controlling the Sharp TV using remote apps.
