Problem: "Setup" menu pops up & disappears randomly for a few weeks, then stops for a year or 2, then starts again. Lately remote(s) stopped working but buttons on set still work. Would this most likely be due to a flaky button, bad solder joint, or temp. sensitive IC? Have read numerous web accounts of the fix being to replace the A1401099A HS Board but it's no longer available.

Good day.
Maybe there are loose connections along the IC that supports the operation of your remote. This could also hamper initial set up operation of your unit. Also, check on loose connections along the power supply.

First make the set have a hard reset. To do this, unplug the power cord for at least 4 hours to 6 hours (over night), and then try using the set. You will have to re-do the user setup. This will reset the internal programming and restore it to factory user defaults settings. Unplugging for a shorter period of time may not do the trick.
If the hard reset does not fix the problem it probably has a defective eeprom or a bad voltage regulator that feeds the controller IC-EEPROM IC's. In which case you will need a tv tech to dignose the exact fault condition and determine the failed parts. (There are about 120+ parts associated with these functions).
This can be a number of hours of work to troubleshoot. Then there will be the cost of the parts, if they are still available for this model. If the main IC/EEPROM has to changed, the complete factory alignments will have to be done.

Realized by avoiding scams like this website who want to cash in on frustrated electronics owners, and instead just talk to the manufacturer of my TV. Sony walked me through the problem and corrected it.
Nice try fixya.com, almost had another one
SOURCE: Front panel buttons and remote have stopped working.
Is the favorite channel menu a function that is normally accessed by a button on the remote?
If so, that button on the remote might be stuck.
If this is the case, the menu may at times pop up all by itself and other buttons on the remote and on the TV's front panel may not respond at all (it had happened on my remotes more than once).
Try to clean the remote control (the housing, rubber pad with knobs, circuit board) with ethyl alcohol, when you clean the housing, you should also clean the holes through which the buttons protrude, there might be some dirt that keeps the button stuck.
It may also be a stuck button on the TV front panel, so check these too.
Also, it could be something else, i just wrote the description of a problem and the solution which to me seemed most likely.
Hope you get it fixed.

SOURCE: Convergence problem... Could it be bad solder joints???
if you have resolder it and still the trouble exist then that is the time to replace the ic.
This could be caused by a couple of things. If the condenser fan is defective and stopping while you don't see the fan stop it will cause the compressor to overheat and stop. The other possibility is a defective=> 12784415 Main Control Board or JAZZ Board A defective relay on this board will cause the same symptoms, Sea Breeze61 views
