Thanks... spilled coffee on it and it stopped working. Opened it cleaned and dried it and now works fine 😊

Perfect, just what I needed to know where the clips where to pop it open.

Nice video! It helped me a lot with opening the remote. However, my right arrow is not responsive as it should be. I need to press it very hard in order to make it work. Is there a way to clean these contacts in the inside?

Thanks! just what I'm looking for. Great!

I love you! Instead of the pick I used a (clean) metal faucet drain filter thingy. Worked perfectly without damage.

Nice!! Dog bit the remote and I needed to ope n it to realign the elastomer keypad. Didn't know how to open it and your video did the trick! Thanks!

Excellent video. It does help. I was worried to open the remote, but the video was as helpful as it could be. Thanks!

Thank you for the useful instructions. However, there is a significant misconception in the video. The metallic plates on the upper side of the circuit board do not make electrical contact with the rubber keys. The electrical contact is made by the hidden underside of the metallic plates. Additionally, their upper side is protected by a plastic foil. Unless the foil detaches from the board, there should be no way for dirt to get into the contacts. See the useful comment by @nemilose: "... My problem was dirt under the metal part of the button."

Suggestion, do NOT use a current Debit or Credit card to open the remote, you can damage the card, I used an old metal debit card.

This fixed my remote. Before this is took a really hard press to work the volume buttons.
Dismantled, cleaned fluff off the rubber buttons, wiped the metal micro switches with IPA and all good. Thanks!

Tip: You can use lego brick seperator, it works well :)

i need to replace the buttons on mine as all the markings have warn off and the replacement aftermarket ones dont work very well so i will buy a cheap one with the same button pattern and cannibalize it for the buttons
