I have the Dynex DC-LCD3-09 I bought it last year. The tv runs great but I have problems with the remote control since I got the tv. I do not have a cable box I have basic cable. When changing stations clicking the remote does not always work, it sticks and sometimes I have to press several times to either change the station. This happens with the volume as well. When commercials come on that are loud raising or lowering the volume becomes a problem I have to click several times or shut the tv off. Even shutting the tv sometimes is a problem. It is not a problem with batteries or the tv. I have 2 remote controls. The second one is the same Dynex remote control that came with the tv. I called Dynex today. The man could hardly speak English, and I had a hard time understanding him. He switched me over to parts department and they wanted to sell me a remote control because my warranty is up. I don't think another remote control like I have is the answer. It seems it is a problem the way the remote is made with the same glitch. Anyone know what to do or have an suggestion.
I think you'll find that the tv is at fault. I, unfortunately bought one of these **** things as well. If you try to turn the channel, or volume, at the tv itself, you'll find that it won't work either. Seems to happen when switching between HD and regular programming a lot, but can happen at any time. You get what you ( and I ) paid for....
Testimonial: "I believe this person is right. I thought it was the remote control but it is the Dynex tv itself"
Take a hair dryer put it in low heat,blow away all the dirts,and some grims.Take a Q tip with a dap of rubbing alcahol clean the parts u said it stick or what ever.Change batteries that should work.If not must take the remote aparts clean the circuits board,and the rubbers contact with some rubbing alcahol,but if the rubber film betwwen the circuit board rubber contact worn out u out off luck it junks.
Tries see behind the batteries,any screw?Take that screw out u could take it aparts.Buy a universal remote,follow the directions program in ur remote codes,but this also problematic,becaue if ur tv is not popular in the market,all the codes they give u might not work with ur tv,that because comsumers products changes all the times.

Thanks but I had trouble with these remotes since I got them. They were both new, one came with the TV. I do not think I can get them apart to clean they seem pretty sealed accept for where the batteries are. I don't have a cable box, have basic cable, and I hide the stations I cannot receive or don't view like sports. I wondering if the remote might be accounting for them these station with the extra clicks or if there is a problem in the circuit board with communication with the tv.
glppeterson is right. I bought 2 other remotes and the same thing happened both in different places. I have no cable box but I am able to recieve a few stations that are regular cable and HD. The funny thing is if I pick up one remote and it sticks, I use another and it works but sticks on different channels.You are right you get what you pay. The Dynex does have a beautiful picture though and it has many features that I do not have with my new Vizio. I guess I just have to keep clicking away. Thanks your comment was a confirmation after having the same problem with my new remotes as well, I kind of figured it was the TV after all.
