I realize you've already replaced your mini box. But if you were having the exact same problem as the OP, the remote performed mini box functions but wouldn't power on the TV. The issue would have been caused by the remote or the TV, not the mini box. For future references, before replacing a mini box when the remote won't perform TV functions, try replacing the batteries. If you don't have fresh batteries available, take the battery cover off and spin the old ones inside. If the TV powers on, the issue is just weak batteries that need to be replaced. If the TV still doesn't power on then or with fresh batteries, take the old remote to a Cox store and replace it. Don't forget to take your new batteries out first.
Yeah, I realized that after I posted. Didn’t mean to wake up such an old thread. As for the remote, we did it all - new batteries, trying it with both of our TVs, I even opened it up and cleaned all of the contacts. When I took it to the store for a replacement, we were told that the mini boxes (and remotes) were no longer available and our only option was to switch to the new boxes.
