Sony RM-U252 Remote Repair Details
Manufacturer : Sony
Model : RM-U252
Customers Fault Description : This Sony surround amplifier remote went wrong two years ago. I contacted Sony but they told me they would be unable to offer a replacement for a product I had purchased 30 years ago. I may have thrown that remote away but if I have not. I believe the only problem with that Remote is the + and - terminals that the AA batteries connect to are missing. Fortunately, the amplifier is sufficiently old enough to be able to be operated without its remote control but I would like the convenience of the remote.
The battery terminal on this remote was corroded and missing, a replacement has been fitted and contamination cleaned up and full functionality has been restored (please see testing video below)
