If your Sony RM-AMU171 remote control isn't connecting your devices to your system and the system's name doesn't appear on the Bluetooth device list, you can follow these troubleshooting steps:

Ensure Bluetooth is Enabled: Check that Bluetooth is enabled on both your system and the device you are trying to connect.

Check Device Compatibility: Ensure that the devices you are trying to connect are compatible with the Sony system.

Restart Both Devices: Sometimes, restarting both the Sony system and the device you are trying to connect can resolve connectivity issues.

Clear Bluetooth Pairing List: On your Sony system, clear the list of previously paired devices. This can help if the system has reached its maximum number of paired devices.

Go to the Bluetooth settings on the Sony system.

Find the option to clear or forget all paired devices.

Reset Bluetooth Settings: On your device (e.g., smartphone, tablet), reset the Bluetooth settings.

Go to your device's Bluetooth settings.

Forget or unpair all connected devices.

Restart your device and try pairing again.

Enter Pairing Mode:

Ensure that the Sony system is in pairing mode. This is typically done by holding down the Bluetooth or Pairing button on the Sony system until the Bluetooth indicator starts flashing.

On your device, search for Bluetooth devices and select your Sony system from the list.

Update Firmware: Check if there are any firmware updates available for your Sony system. Sometimes, updating the firmware can resolve connectivity issues.

Reduce Interference: Make sure there are no other electronic devices nearby that could interfere with the Bluetooth signal.

Factory Reset: If all else fails, you can perform a factory reset on your Sony system. Be aware that this will erase all settings and paired devices, returning the system to its default state.

Consult the user manual for instructions on performing a factory reset.

Check for Damage: Inspect the remote control and the Sony system for any physical damage that might be affecting the Bluetooth functionality.

If you follow these steps and still cannot connect your devices, it might be helpful to contact Sony customer support for further assistance.
