Check your sensor bar, make sure it's plugged into the wii, that happened to me once, if that's not the problem then just call Nintendo

So does the cursor work in games? If so then it sounds like the accelerometer is stuck. Maybe try smacking it or slamming it on a table lightly to try to get it unstuck. That is only if the cursor is working but swinging the Wiimote and stuff isn't getting detected. If the cursor doesn't work in the games then the problem isn't with the accelerometer.
