I had a universal remote which had been working for 6 months or more. One day my Memorex MVT2135 TV/VCR just stopped responding. I mainly use the TV. (on/off, channel, volume. Nothing fancy) I purchased a Memorex remote from eBay. No response. I think this is the original model of remote that would have come with the unit when it was new. Is it possible that the TV is just not going to response to ANY remote control? If yes, is it fixable?
The flashing blue light shows that the TV is receiving I.R. from the remote but doesn't mean that the signal being received is recognized by the Samsung. If you have a "universal" remote then your TV code may need to be re-entered/reprogrammed...changing batteries in a "universal" will usually require it to be reprogrammed. Also...because of the remotes construction (rubber membranes with carbon dots that short across PC traces) I've seen certain buttons stop working altogether.

Yes, the buttons on the front of the TV work. I haven't used a tape in it yet; can't speak for that.
Until i get a remote working, I can't re-set the accepted TV stations, so it skips from 44 to 48 to 62 or so. I have a workaround (play a station or tape on another TV and pipe it to this one) but that's quirky.
Sound familiar at all?
