The original TV remote and Sony universal remote won't control TV anymore.
Hey, I called the local Sony Authorized dealer/repair. He said the little microprocessor inside the sensor goes bezark once in awhile......soo.......unplug the TV from the wall when you go to bed and then plug it back in the next morning. It worked for me. The little gizmo resets itself.
The remote IR Sensor is behind the Sony Logo on the front of the screen... Can be accessed thru the back but it's a real pain ... make surf you get the magic focus sensor back in the same place and angle They are in stock from Sony parts for around 30.00
See some models infrared sensors. Check out which type your TV has.

Have original remote that came with projection tv. Approx. 10 yrs old. Have even tried a universal remote with no luck.
same prob
Sony 52" XBR rear projection teIevions that just developed a problem and I have two sony remotes and neither will work as of yesterday. Think the remote sensor on tv is out. Sony 52" XBR rear projection tv about 8-10 years old. Anyone having information on cost to fix or part needed please reply to [email protected]. Thanks
I still have the same issue and it is intermittent. Today it is not working and last week it was. Does anyone know where the remote sensor is located for the Sony KP-53HS10?
Unplugging the TV overnight helped for about a week. I think I'll try and replace the sensor. I checked Sony parts but could not find it. Can anyone point me in the direction?
Thanks
Hi,
BigMac posted the below comments in regards to an IR sensor issue I am having. I tried Sony but they will not sell me the part and neither will the authorized service center unless I bring the set in. Do you know where I can purchase this part, i have seached the internet but with no luck.
