What you'll notice
Volume and channel work, but specific buttons (like the home or input button) do nothing.
Why it happens
Worn contact pads inside the remote itself — extremely common after years of use — rather than a TV-side fault.
How we fix it
We test with a replacement remote to confirm, then supply a compatible replacement — usually a same-visit, low-cost fix.
Still not working?
If the checks above haven't restored your remote control & ir sensor, this usually needs a technician. Our Remote & Connectivity Repair service covers exactly this fault.
