First I would try replacing the batteries. And make sure your remote setting is set for TV.

I have a Panasonic TH-42PX50u that suddenly is stuck on one channel and no volume control either. Same whether using remote or on TV. Only turns on and off no other control.

Try changing the input device to something you are sure, works such as a DVD player. Look for any loose contacts in RC jacks/sockets/Cable. Look for jammed buttons on remote and/or on control panel. Try removing the batteries from remote and operating from the control panel of TV. If these are ok, Switch off TV manually, switch off power, remove plug and retry after 48 hours. If problem persists, please refer it to a qualified service technician.

Bravia KDL40W2000 Remote and manual controls no longer work

check to be sure your remote is sending IR signal, with
a smart phone camera hold remote IR eye in front of camera and click any buttons on remote, you should see
a light coming from IR eye. If no light emitting, remote needs to be replaced.

My remote worked fine, but suddenly won't work at all. TV is older Sony Wega 24" Trinitron (KV-24FS100). The satellite remote will change the channels, cause it's using the box, but it won't control...

Could be the IR receiver in the TV.
Make sure nothing is in front of the TV that would block the IR from receiving commands from the remote, I've seen customers put VHS tapes on the front of their TV that caused the remote to not to work.

Good luck

Watching and Suddenly turned black, but sound still worked.

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;} It seems there is a loose connection between the board producing the picture and the screen; this is why this would happen. If turning the TV on and off makes no difference, try contact Phillips to see if they can talk you through a factory reset. If this does not work, the set may require service.

Cox universal remote won't control samsung tv ln52a650 volume

This is a tough one, I can come up with possibly 2 solutions, 1 being that if the batteries are low you will sometimes lose partial control of some of the functions on the remote, and if that is not it, then I have another that this one happened to me once, The infrared on the TV was not picking up the volume button I was sitting at an angle, so everytime i sit in that chair everything works but the voulume control i have to point it right at it on direct line and not from the side...Hope this helps...Steve

Can't change channels

I had exactly the same problem. I finally found the power button on the underside of the TV. It is well hidden and to find it, you need to run your fingers underneath the panel. Turn it off for a minute or so and turn it back on and then turn on the switch on the panel on the upper right side where the channel and volume buttons are. It works.
