Never tried to open the remote, but have you checked the battery or tried a new battery? Mine was acting screwy until I did this.

My remote still works. You should be able to operate it from the front panel. If not contact boss or try remotes.com.

Yes I had a problem, It just wouldn't take. I tried and tried and nothing, I thought I was doing something wrong so I didn't report it. So all I did was remove the new hard case keypad and put it on my old remote control motherboard that's in the remote controller cause they don't sell the hard case keypad separate. The buttons wear and break in time.

Yes I had the same issue - It's been a while but I believe I found that the "sticker" cover on the remote is upside down. once I pulled it off and turned it the remote worked fine. Now it's horrible on battery life but that's a separate issue. My daughter didn't like it anyway so I have one that was used like twice and now sits in her closet.

I had the same problem when I received mine. I did a search on the internet and found the procedure necessary to program the remote to the motor. I don't remember the sequence of pressing the comtrols but if you do a search you will find it

I found the buttons on the remote somewhat difficult to press and get a response. Also, you must get close and be absolutely direct, straight on, in pointing it. If it still doesn't work, contact the company. They have very good support and if they can't help you, will most certainly replace it.

I haven't had such a problem, but I have experienced sluggish or incorrect response to the button control which was solved with the remote use. If your buttons work & you have after purchase warrantee, I would suggest using the warrantee to repair. If buttons work but not the remote then question the remote performance. Sorry I'm not more help. I have, however, purchased 4 units for myself and others and had issues twice that had to be resolved thru warantee use. Good Luck!

I found a partial workaround solution for my problem (like yours) of the unit turning off a few seconds after turning it on. I press (and hold) the Stop button, and then the On button, and continue to press them both until the blue SA-CD light and the blue MultiChannel light go off, and then back on again. After that, the unit works ! Except that the LCD panel remains blank. Many (perhaps all) of the front panel buttons work. I still need to experiment to see if the remote works, and to what extent. Sony gave me the choice of a refurbished unit, or to repair mine, under warranty. Anybody got an opinion on which is the way to go ?

Try to reprogram the one that doesnt seem to work. I learned how to program my new remote on youtube. It was pretty odd, but it worked. The old one still works too.

I emailed orders@aetetek.net when i needed to order a new remote. They were helpful. You can ask them if there is a way to reset.

I hope this is the issue I'm having. I've already had the technician out last week to replace the main board for this problem. The remote seemed to have worked for 5 minutes, like you said, and literally as he was leaving my driveway I tried to change the source and the remote didn't work again! I was so frustrated, and thanks to you I will be geared up with this information so perhaps he can fix it this time!

If you are able to access the back side of the lock and are mechanicly inclined you can remove the screws. Play with the buttons. I tried to reset my combo. Turned out i didnt push one of the buttons hard enough while doing so.

You may need to use the 3rd (bottom) button on the remote, if you received a 3- button remote. I had the same issue. You can also re-program the button to use the older intellicode programming, but it is easiest to use the bottom button.

Hi, you may have downloaded the incorrect remote, I had the same issue until I downloaded the correct remote. It took a litter guess work. Joe.

I have had to reprogram my 2 remotes every couple of years for seemingly no reason that I can put my finger on. Maybe it was a storm or power failure, I don't recall, but I've never been able to attribute it to these wall buttons. Hmm..........
