Yes it is the thing to do since they are so cheap to get and easy to replace. They run between 20 and 30 bucks on the internet. Don't let someone sell you a board you don't need it just the chips.
You can get the chips and instructions at this link. http://www.tvrepairkits.com/.
Replace Both STK ICs big black ICs example STK392-110 also 2 resistors 2.7ohms in same circuit.
Not really, just check and make sure the remote doesn't have an issue with acid leaking from the old batteries. Make sure the batteried you put in are in correct and are good. Even new batteries can be bad sometimes. Is the front of the remot clean? do you have anything in front of the TV to block the remote signal? Turn the TV off and see if it comes on with the TV remote. Just using the direct tv remote will not cause any issues. It has to be the remote, or the sensor on the tv.

Cannot adjust using remote. Remote was not used for an extended period of time. Was using direct tv remote. Even with new batteries and tv selected on remote tv will not respond to commands from remote. Possible solution to remote problem ?
