Sony HDD RMT - D259 Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : Sony

Model : HDD RMT - D259

Customers Fault Description : Most buttons not working (please check all)

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This Sony Hard disc drive recorder remote control arrived safely and on testing was found to have many nonfunctioning / sluggish buttons.

When opened the issue was found to be due to a large amount of liquid within the remote (see image).

 The PCB and button array was cleared of all contaminants and then it was found that a few buttons were non functionating due to the decomposition of the conductive pads.  Replacement conductive pads were glued into place which restored full functionality to all buttons.
