Remote Fixer Repair Response

This remote arrived safely and on testing was confirmed to be dead.

After a component test was carried out it was concluded that the issue lay with the main IC. 

the IC was ordered and fitted which restored full functionality.  There was also signs of corrosion over some of the buttons which was cleaned as a precaution.
