Take your phone camera pick up the remote push any button and with camera facing sensor you can see if the sensor lights up. Then you will know if remote works. If the board in the unit has lost it's program you would have to reprogram it from the remote and that would have to come from a factory rep more than likely.

There are universal remotes with a code-search mode..

This looks like a Midea unit. Have you tried the corresponding remote code ?

The indoor unit beeps or the remote beeps?

Will the mini split do anything? It might have an emergency mode you could try?

My first step in trouble shooting is rebooting. Mini is more computer than AC. Try turning the circuit breaker off
for 30 seconds and turn back on.

That confirms the unit is powered:thumbup:

There's probably a small cable connecting the IR receiver to the control board. Check it's plugged in properly on both ends. Might have got unplugged during the move.
