Oh, we got it!!
Thanks, @rpm, for taking the time to post.
I have never done it, but I do have a Wii with Netflix & this is how I would go about doing it. Again, I don’t know if this will work, but it is all I can think of.
Use computer to go to Netflix. Click on ‘Your Account & Help’ in the top right of the page.
Click on ‘Manage Netflix ready devices and computer’.
In the list of devices, find the Wii & click on the ‘Deactivate’ link.
Now, when at the main screen on the Wii, go into the system settings & the save data information. Delete all the Netflix related save files.
At this point I believe you can activate Netflix on the Wii as you would if it was for the first time.
Hopefully this works. I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t.
EDIT.. Since you already figured it out, could you explain how you did it (if different from my explanation) here in the forum – for future reference? Thanks.
We pretty much did what you said with a couple of differences. We didn’t have to deactivate the Wii from the original Netflix account and we had to erase both the saved data and the channel itself from the Wii systems settings. Then we re-downloaded the Netflix channel from the Wii store and we were able to get a new activation code.
