Remote control commands not being read

Remote control commands from the remote that came from the 57H93 and a generic one has stopped working.  The tv has been gradually not been picking up or reading the remotes for longer intervals over the last couple of months.  The ability to read the remotes came back after a couple of days, but it did not come back this time.  I have replaced the batteries on both remotes and they turn on the dvd player, stereo, vcr, etc. with no problems.  Looks like the remotes are good and something is wrong with the tv.  I have removed the screen before to clean out the spiders and spiderwebs.  There is a board behind the 3 projection tubes that appears to be the remote control sensor board.  Has anyone replaced one of those before?  Does anyone know its part number and where I can get one?  Would like to try to replace the board if it isn't too much money.  Calling someone to service the tv will be expensive.  Does anyone have the service manual and/or schematic for a Toshiba 57H93?  Thanks!

    Forgot to add:  The rest of the tv is working.  I can get HDTV reception, watch dvds from the component input and play the WII from the composite input.  I can change channels, volume and menu items from the front control panel.

    I have the same problem, did you fix your T.V? What was it? How much did it cost?

SOURCE: Remote will not control TV (but will control other devices)

Sometimes the led reciever for the tv goes out could need to be replaced if the remote works on other items

SOURCE: Remote Control Won't Work

Could be the IR detector or something in the support circuit for that sensor - it's a bit like sayin my car goes thump, thump, thump what's wrong.. :) Ahh better not go for laughs here...Let me ask, Do all the rest of the functions of the TV work okay? (ie volume, channel, power on/off)? Did you purchase the original remote, as a replacement, for that TV or some universal? When the remote quit working - was it working one-day and then just not working the next? Have you recently moved the TV, one-room to another, out of the way to clean underneath or moved it in any way? Let me know. Bill my private email is [email protected]

SOURCE: TV remote control sensor

yeah,it's very easy.

pull out the bottom part(where the speakers are) - they are held with plastic hooks on the inside, they are =on the left and right side and a few at the top. just pull one end and the rest will come off easily.

remove a couple of screws holding the buttons assembly and the bottom of the screen.

slide the screen carefully upwards and when you reach about half way then it will come off.

behold...the sensor is infront of you, it's a small pcb with a light sensor on it. (if you see sensors at the very top or side...they are probably focus sensors)


sure it's not the remote?

How to get this remote control to turn the 2004 Sylvania TV on/off

There is a fault with the remote control and it is not worth trying to fix it and not worth replacing the stock remote control unit even if the manufacturer could still supply one for that TV.

The best option is to just buy a very basic generic remote control (quite inexpensive) from an electronics store which will work with many TVs and use that remote to turn the TV on and off. Use your stock remote for all other functions if it is still working well on those functions.

I had a friend with the exact same problem with her stock remote a while back. I purchased a simple generic remote control on special for around $20 which she now uses to turn the TV on and off. .

I have a 32" GE XS Stereo- Commercial Skip T.V. Model# 25GT270 Made in Mexico Aug 1999 > No remote. I purchased a GINORMOUS universal remote control new in the box from 2nd hand store. No instructi

:),a tv does not use either play or stop commands,in most universal remote u need to set the apropriate code for the tv set so u can use volum,chanells and other tv specific commands.
In order to do that u need the manual!!! many china remotes have printed on the back of the box a long list or have a very thin paper hide in the box eith several codes.
good practice:a universal remote use a SET button and a TV button,that if u press at the same time will enter the mode set tv code.if u don,t have the code,press once again set after set+tv,will enter the scan mode,keep the remote pointed on the tv,if lucky after a short time(1 minute) the remote scanned and found the tv so u can enjoy some commands.many tv set have comun codes that will make a remote with no apropriate set to stop in a not full mode,so u only will acces part of the commands...post video and fotos
best regards

The TV stopped responding to the remote control

tried with reset doesn't work, ok it could be the IR sensor at the front panel of the tv doesn't work. but before you replace it you need to ensure if your remote controller is working. have you tried to check the remote with camera trick just to know if the remote controller is sending light to the IR sensor of the tv.

Changing remote command mode for sony rdr-hx525 without remote control

Hold the "Enter" button along with the numeric button for the command mode you selected in Setup. This will reset the remote to work in the command mode you selected (also lets you get back into System Menu to try other command modes). If you pick a different command mode, you'll need to do this again to reset the remote to the selected mode. Found this info courtesy our friends on the Internet - no thanks to Sony's manual...
