How to repair or fix Sony TV remote control button issue
They are same quality as Toyota’s products, and this means that they last really long time. I have been now three actually for Sony’s TVs and those all has been lost years and years and there has been not not. There has not been any issues and no any D, that in the soonest and now I have in here this Sony’s remote control. There is now issue F and that I want to show you that how to fix that there is is to another tip that one button in here that button it don’t work very easily. Then I press that in this way, this remote control don’t send this message to TV, and I think that there is two possibilities to fix that remote control. First, one, the easiest one is to go to shop and purchase new one, that kind of remote control in the Sony’s control and that cost something like 100 to 200 u.s. dollars. And this is quite expensive, because this is so nice products and other way is to go some pirate remote control. What is very, very cheap to put purchase, but quality is not like in Sony’s and and this. This remote control is the year model 2007 and I I have been fried in here this purchasing date and its name a 2007, because I like to check that how long these Sony’s products and all other products last and now. Firstly, when I start to repair this this button first, I I need to open that top cover, and I think that when this is in Japanese products, they always does and do in your some some he that we can.
These are simple, this control and it happens so that first I take these Potteries away and then I start to search that. Is there any screws and – and here is no any screws, but then I notice that in here is two holes and I think that in a Japanese way there is idea that I could open that remote control and port that I need three screwdrivers. I have this small electric screwdrivers were put. Points are in that way to our toes cross head and run. One is this plaque and I use this and actually now I need also to this screwdrivers. Okay, and now I have this – I made that those gross head – screwdrivers, screwdrivers and – and I need to insert these cluttered drivers in in these holes in here – and the point is that that when I insert these two screwdrivers in that way in there, this is the Idea and then I need a little bit. I move that in top position and I need to push in that direction in in I’ve pushed that in that direction. In this way – and I was also pulled screwdrivers in that direction and then 10 is cover opens now. I assaulted, and also this direction is a little bit like this, not in directing test Bay. It is like little bit in upper, and here is the screwdriver, and then I start his first part that at the tie insert that first one in because there is that kind of holes.
But I need a little bit move and not loud this at this way. Now this opens and carefully ok, now it’s, oh okay, it isn’t air and then the second tool – and this is this critical way. Now there is this small am picker hole, and for that I need different kind of screwdriver. Now I have that flat, but I insert carefully in here – and I start to little bit twist – this discover and wide soon is it that in here and in that pot we have to be carefully the window, but they don’t test throat. This circuit board. What is in the inside then I take second screwdriver in here and I I’m old that in this way, and then I and then I carefully insert that I start to carefully add this cover out in my fingers and out. We have this knock clock and the cover carefully. We move that in up, because if they take this really fast out, then this cover can crack here. For me, and now this discover opens okay, excellent and then I start to search this faulty normally, if there is any any any change this this system place. What and I move this places, then this TB works and now I think that when I look that alright, it looks quite okay and then I check that I run in here. I need some some water or maybe some drink, and this looks like coca cola or Pepsi, and somebody maybe some some kid, because I don’t drink so much coca cola.
I prefer more beer. Beer is better, and I think that now in here is coca cola in inside, and this is this is then easy, because I take wide clean paper if we have white cotton it’s more better and then I clean, if you check in here these are a stay Away and this in here they are clean, and in that point I think that, especially in here there is, that is totally some some soccer or water liquid again, I need to take this all wet away. Yes, now this are clean. Yes, this is good a lot of these are and when I clean this fall Ras. I believe that this my remote control works then really nicely, and I don’t – and here is also it – is interesting and then tools this also, all this wet wet material away. Okay, okay, excellent: this is good, and then I think that it here is this coca cola more. If we can check it that way. Yes, actually there is this whole kind of scrap in here I’ll take those or dirty things away, and this is my plastic, and here is this – that can control – and this goes nicely in here back now and then the final step is that I clean also tap Rf, because this was also wet yeah you sweep this is where and now – and I clean this carefully there is this black things and believe that this remote control works very well and until our install is stopped back, and there goes idea that first, this is the Cover and first I need to – is it that until this cover and then then this our rows must be, in fact, resistance and that’s mean that this.
This would be that I think stay out in. I need to press toes so to paint that way. Okay, now no it’s fine, because I need that toast those are rose logs in that deduction and that and the first in here here our toes are a us in here here and here that’s post basement must must be in here that’s good. I can. I take my crate in here and I turn that in the opposite side, then I press these these buttons out of those holes, and I check that. Okay, that looks good. Then I notice that there is still this some Nick in there. I hope I have take those most things, but most things away and there is the circuit board and that and then I do the saw that play. I wrote the attack in this way and then I need to only compress in this play like he knows together and this flop is cold sound. It means that this is looking and the final step is to hear instead factories and here’s only way there is those symbols that plus goes there is plus and in pottery there is plus let’s go there, and then this one goes in there and the final step Is this cover and the cover goes this way, and then I go to check that without this. My my remote control works and I notice that this button is now stuck and I need because it can’t be in that position.
I need to reopen that and and now now I I do that you can, because I have flipped it press, ok and then – and you learn it – is that this I’m – not there in here and carefully this way. Do it here here second step cool and carefully little bit enough? Now it so opens, and if, if there are some things little bit damaged, we can insert a little bit glue in that area and then this remote control works. Fine then I take the pump, objected. The pop is what is wrong. This works fine, but this not. What is wrong in here. This works here, but why okay, so the those parts goes in here? Okay, maybe this was the idea, okay good and then I insert again okay. Now this works perfectly like this okay and then I use that leftover back it it’s. Actually it works also in that place right, then i press everything and in johnny’s quality. This is very smooth line. He meant that that I destroyed this that little bit. These are red post, plastic parts, but this is this here there is some parts. What went away in this aware and eat this, but opens, is that little bit clue in that area. Now this looks excellent and then I call to check that and I will be back within five minutes and I report the results. Okay and I’ve tested that con remote control and now this button works perfectly.
But then I notice that still this area is park and then I know the step in here in Japanese way. They respond whole. It is picker in here, and at least three are smaller and port. One is picker and that’s means that that I need to rotate that that part a little bit another position that that is wider. This point should be in here. This was quite. This was a great job. Interesting and now I check that that this wider part goes in this wider. Around there now let’s suit maps, let’s see that how this works Christine steal, this one area is talk, are innate, opened up again and this one port. Actually now I take this part totally out. Okay – and here was also one wider pot, and this month’s must go in there. Okay, this was really complex, interesting to step. This is wider and also in there inside one part is so this is bigger hole in dirt and in here and and that that part one of those is wider. Okay, this is interesting, and now I insert that in here now it should, but it goes in deeper, and then I need to remember again that this is wider. Is one point, then, that one, those three are smaller than that one and this wider apart suit goes in that direction: okay, excellent and then I that there should not be any thirties. Okay. Now this works excellent and then this is like fourth time of our test: testing.

Gracias, me ayudo a darme una idea.
Thanks, that helped me fix my controller! 😀
Thanks so much. I have a similar Sony remote, and could not be certain of how to open it. You showed exactly what I needed to know. (My problem was the ON/OFF contact, which I had to scavenge from another remote and glue in place but I couldn't have done that if I couldn't have opened the remote.
I have opened some remotes too mostly it is residue from natural oils and moisture from your hands that gets in from buttons and interferes with the buttons.even some makeup get in (face to fingers to buttons). I cleaned mine with iso-propyl alcohol and wiping gently with paper towels (wear disposable gloves for the really gunky ones )
Thanks. Great explanation. Fixed the problem. Brought happiness to my home.
When the TV remote doesn't work, you might as well try to fix it – you have nothing to lose! If you succeed, you have saved yourself some cash for a new remote, you have saved the world resources – less landfill, and you'll feel pretty chuffed about your achievement! So thanks for the video!
I'll now see if I can find my original Toshiba remotes…
That's a lot of screwdriver….
Worked
Your video helped fix remote in 5 minutes. Thank you
Thanks a lot, but my friend use a mediator of guitard. You destroy the plastic is not professionnal
great video, and you funny made me laugh as well
good instruction ! thank you !
Thank you for showing this,by showing the mistakes that can be made reassembling you have helped everyone understand the reassembly much better than if you had "editided them out" My problem isn't dirt!just one button isn't working ,and just seen link with foil fix ….
Thanks. I was just researching a replacement because of my down volume button. Your solution fixed my 13 year old remote so I didn't have to buy a new one for a system that I'll probably replace soon anyway. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this video! The selection button was sticking on the top + left arrows after years of use (and I think my dad's greasy hands lol), but I was able to clear out the gunk and it works now 😀
Discovering that the dial has special sized notches for the inside and outside of the circular directional button is worth the whole video, thanks for that important discovery and pointing it out!
ahhh the power of youtube worked like a charm thank you sir i did it in 4 minutes
Thank you…i was about to get another one on ebay.God bless you
For lining up the disc, it might be easier to lay the top of the case face-down, line the disc up with the slots (without the rubber mat), then lay the buttons into the top, and then lock the bottom onto the whole thing.
thank you, was about to order a new one.. this video helped me fix it
Thank you gentleman! I repaired my remote following your instructions!
The part when you opened it, helped me with figuring out how to open mine! Thank you!
The same problem. Did the same and it worked. Thank you.
Sir, onida hts 1000 5.1 multimedia 90 wats home theater remote control model number wanted please
Key is how he gets a sony remote apart without cracking the case.
Beer is better 🙂
Your video helped me, thank you!
My Sony control was not the same but your instructions worked for me. Thanks!
i prefer beer too, thanks !
Great thanks for your lesson.
Next time:
It's not uncommon for the plastic buttons to have tabs for a single orientation. You might find it much, much easier to place the top cover upside down, align those buttons into the top cover, place the keypad on top of that, and then assemble the bottom to the top. In addition, there's a small plastic tool called a "spudger" that is magnificent for prying these kinds of devices apart that snap together. Get a couple of them. Much easier and causes less cosmetic damage and lower risk of damaging or breaking the fragile snap tabs using steel jewelers screwdrivers.
Thank you very very much buddy. re opening remote at start of video. Gentleman.
I don't usually comment on videos but this really helped out. I spilled a sugary drink on the volume buttons and they stopped working. Opened the remote and cleared the sticky board with alcohol. Works great now, thanks a lot!
I am looking for a Sony Remote for my amplifier. The model of the remote is RM-AAL011. Can you get back to me at: [email protected] (617) 823-0093.Thank you
Txs for your good discribtion including errors could be made
Mine rc now working good again
I think that the "cola" is leakage from former old batteries
I fixed my remote thanks to this video – thanks 😀
Beer IS best, that is true 🙂
Hi
If you want to avoid damaging the remote, simply use a nose pliers tool.
Put the tips in both holes and twist it clockwise 90 degrees. Then open the tool, and voila the remote will open. 🙂
You do not need much force!
Kind Regards
Hello. Your video was amazing. I followed the instructions and viola my remote works great. It took not even 5 minutes. Thank you so much.
good job it helped me alltho i used some 98% alcohol and cotton. Alcohol cleans well and vaporise fast. DO NOT USE ACETONE it can fuck up your circuit board.
Hello doing it your way you can break the plastic case easy lol.wash the rubber in soap water lets it dry….
That's a hard way to disassemble the remote, & I repair lots of remotes for my customers.
If you look at 6:44 in the video, you can see on the top cover the indentation where the top cover is held in place.
I use a flat bladed tool to start releasing the cover here, it's so much easier, and there are no plastic bits that fall out afterward. It does mark the remote, I just use a nail file to clean up afterwards.
the first thing you clean it with the paper why dont you clean it with water?
Well done my friend. Your fix worked for me, many thanks.
Thanks you very much. Merci beaucoup !!
Find the the same problem inside.
