Turn the Wii console on and wait until the "Health & Safety" screen appears (don't press A).

Reinsert the batteries and sync the Wii Remote again.

Also Know, how do Wii remotes work? The Wii sensor bar is quite simply a bank of powered up LED lights, it transmits no data to either the console or the Wii controllers. The LED lights are used as a reference point for your Wii remote, the Wii remote picks up the light emitted from the sensor bar and uses it to work out the movement of your controller.

Note: Up to six Wii Remotes and/or four Wii Pro Controllers can work together with the Wii U using either the sensor strip on the Wii U GamePad or the sensor bar.
