My 80yr old parents have a Sylvania SRT2227s that quit responding to the remote. [first a couple buttons- then all of them]
They've bought 2 universal remotes and couldn't get either to work. [My sister and brother tried, too- both good 'direction followers'.]
So as I was leaving their house yesterday after snow-blowing their driveway all day, mom asks if I can get them a new remote that just controls the TV. I asked if she was sure it wasn't the TV's problem and not the remote, and she isn't.
So I figure the first thing I should do is try this remote on another TV. [especially when I see that a simple remote is $30]
I don't see any numbers on it but it is the remote that came with this TV in 2002. It does say Sylvania on it. Bought at Sears, if that changes anything.
Before I bother my TV repair guy with this one, is there a list of what TV's this remote should control-- or some way to determine if it is the remote or the TV- when the TV is an hour away?
Thanks Jim
