Can I replace the bulb that causes the remote to work on my apex 32" led tv. I could not get the universal remote to work

The buttons themselves may not be making contact. I've had to take some remotes apart and clean the carbonized rubber pads that touch the contacts on the circuit board. Most remotes can be pryed apart very carefully and cleaned. If this doesn't help it is possible that the incorrect code is in the remote. Also part of the chip that generates the digital pulses could be bad. You might need to get another remote. Stargazer

Your "tuner" in the menu is set on "off air" or "antenna. It should be set on "cable" or "dish". See if you can go into your menu with the buttons on the set and change your tuner setting. Keever

This maybe a sticky one.

#1. Original remote may have something spilled in it or may have dirty battery contacts.

First check battery contacts and make sure it's not corroded. Clean with small brush and baking soda. Let dry thouroughly and replace with fresh batteries.

If this isn't the problem or you tried this, then move on.

Next, Get these materials. A cloth, 50% amonia and 50% water sulution two small blad pocket knife and a philips head screwdriver.

Some remotes will have screws holding remote covers and internal board and others do not. If your remote have screws, remove them all. If not, then start prying your remote apart with your pocket knives. Do so very carefully as not to damage anything inside.

Next, lay down remote button facing down, and remove circuit board. Now, take note of rubber button pad(s) position(s) and remove them. Place these pads in your water - amonia solution.

Clean all cntacts and rubber pads, and remote housing. Now before reassembling remote, look at the IR lamp at end of board. Look underside and notice solder joints. Wriggle lamp and see if solder joints move. If so, have this resoldered. Now reassemble remote and give this a try.


#2) Codes may have not been entered right with your new universal remote. Go through all codes again just to be sure.

#3) IR receiver in set maybe damaged or not receiving power to it or the microproccessor has quit responding to the remote commands. Have a good technician check into it if problem is evident that your set has simply stopped responding to remotes.

Good luck,
Jason.
