I have the same problem - it seems to have gradually stopped working over the past few years. It's just one ******* button. But for the life of me I can't figure out how to pop open the remote and fix it. It would probably be a real easy fix, and NO, I sure don't want to shell out $40 (or more likely $75) for a substitute remote just so I can turn up the volume on my amplifier.
I just want to open the freakin' remote, without breaking it of course. If you have one of these things you'll know what I'm talking about.

Hi.
The volume knob issue alone sounds like it's hardware-related and therefore not easily fixed. Also, since the remote appears to be working (the LED's are lighting up), but the unit is not controlled anymore, the IR sensor is probably faulty as well. I would seriously consider sending this AV receiver in for repair. If it's still within warranty, you shouldn't need to pay anything for the repair.

It's not much but I hope this helps.

Read this procedure to possibly fix the remote:

They also sell replacement remotes.
Zoom in on the picture of the original remote provided on the site (or look at your own) and get the actual remote model number.
or check eBay: search for "(model of the device or the remote) remote", check the 'include description' box. Usually cheaper than the vendors.
