To all: a neighbor of mine has a 6-7 year old Sony Trinitron, which works well except for the remote control. The remote had an intermittent problem where it would work fine for a few weeks, not work at all for a few days, start working ok again, etc. It seems it is now, finally, dead. There is one IC, a crystal, a few resistors and caps, and an LED inside. My question is, what usually goes? Is this worth fixing? And finally, can this LED be tested with an ohmeter like a "regular" diode? Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA, Larry Stern -- Larry Stern LDSTERN@RODAN.ACS.SYR.EDU
