	Gee... I've never heard of an LED (which is what those things
at the front of your remote are ) being broken in a fall, much less all
of them at once. From what you've described I would try to find some broken
solder joints or broken wires. The parts in most solid state devices are
not too easy to break with simple g forces. Typically the weakest point
on these remotes is the connections from the board to the battery...
concentrate on that and you will probably be surprised.
