I was using my remote controller in the morning and it worked fine then, but then in the afternoon it just stopped working, the batteries are ok, I even put in new ones just to be sure. The transmit light on the remote turns red whenever I push a button, and the lens on the tv is clean too. There was never any problem with changing channels to show possible dying batteries, when I tried to use it in the afternoon it just wouldn't work. I used both of the blue button settings (TV and DVD) when I was trying to change channels. Unplugging and replugging the TV didn't work. AndI can't flip through chapters while I'm watching DVD's either. Thanks for at least taking the time to read this, and thanks more if you helped.
I would try 'waking up' the remote-Take the batteries out,press each button once then put the batteries back in.See if that works.

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM MY SYLVANNIA TV/VCR REMOTE STOPPED WORKING AND NO UNIVERSAL REMOTE WILL WORK ON IT ?????
Posted on Mar 14, 2008
Could be anything but give you a tip any way.. I use my celular camera to see if the remote bean is lighting and blinking (thast the white one in the front) if not the remote control is the problem. open the unit and observe for broquen parts or broken solders.....good luck...

Open up the remote carefully. Look for any dark areas of the circuit board where burning may have occurred. Get a stick of gum and using the foil, cover the circuit board, this should temporarily fix the remote but I'd suggest contacting your tv's company for a replacement.

I gave the same television/DVD combo to my mom for Christmas and she had the same problem. She found that the remote was EXTREMELY light sensitive. She lowered the wattage of her light bulbs to 25 over the kitchen table and kept the remote in the cabinet when not in use. This may sound ridiculous but it actually worked for her. I came on this site looking for a better answer to her problem and saw yours. Maybe it will help.

I bought a new remote from Toshiba. Checked it with my digital camera it was working fine. I ordered a receiver from Toshiba, soldered it onto the main board and it works like a new one. The receiver would only change state if I unplugged it for a while.
A new sensor is the answer.

I finally ordered a new remote sensor. I removed the old sensor and soldered in the new one. It works just fine now.

I have the same problem, and I did order a new remote and from toshiba and had the same problem. It must be the sensor in the tv.

Tv response to remote control just quit. I have inserted new batteries. I even tried a universal remote control. No response.
I cleaned the lens on the front of the tv. Still no response.
Help
Thanks

Earlier this year my remote stopped working for no reason. Did the usual - checked batteries and uplugged it for a few minutes. No difference. Took it to an authorized repair palce and they soldered the infrared connection. Worked fine until today, Dec. 7. Same deal. Tv hasn't been moved at all during this time. It cost $100 to have the soldering done the first time. Any suggestions? Will call the repair place to see if they guarantee their work, but that means getting a van and lugging the tv about 40 miles each way. HELP!

only some of remotes functions work, I tried programing a universal and got the volume and the tv to shut of but no channel changing
I have the same issue, tried turning everything on and off, the set works fine manually just not with remote. Bought a new factory direct remote of the same kind for this model, worked for 1/2 day then stopped working leading me to believe must be in the sensor, but can you even get replacement sensors for these?

TV works fine. Remote won't work. Changed batteries and unplugged TV. Infrared light out on TV. How do you repair or replace infrared light?
Same problem. My remote was working one moment and then wasn't working the next. My digital camera shows that the remote is sending out a signal. I tried a universal remote with no success. Changed batteries, unplugged TV, cleaned lenses.
What is the code to put in a universal remote for the symphonic SC13D?
remote wont work for some reason. tv works great manually
After 5 years, the remote stopped working.
I replaced batteries, it still didn't work - at all.
The TV that always worked great now makes me work.
Tried the following, it's the TV:
Tried fresh batteries in the remote.
Opened the remote to check for cracks and bad solder joints, none found.
Tried remote on another Toshiba TV, worked there.
Tried remote from another Toshiba TV that my remote operated, MVI3M3 still doesn't respond.
Tried universal remote on my MVI3M3 using the code search function.
The remote for the projector has power, but I am unable to use the remote to change the slide for a PowerPoint presentation. I had to use the mouse to change from slide to slide.
