I've had the above for three years now, and this morning it developed a fault where the volume goes non-stop to full and to zero, without being able to be controlled en route by the remote controls. The only way to adjust it is by the set control. Any ideas, please?

Sticky remote buttons

If you can carefully prise it apart you can wipe over the board contacts and rubber key mat.

Hi Fruit Bat & lotvic.

Tks for replies, but I have three separate remote controls that can operate TV's volume & they're all having same effect. I fear it's internal to the TV, but as I said, I can adjust via set side controls

@daveac41

If all other remote functions operate then you are probably right in your assumption, I had thought of a "dirtied" remote sensor on the TV but if other functions are ok.....

See if you can do a factory rest on the TV

Found a "control" in settings that said "Auto Volume On/Off". Swear I've never noticed it before - much less touched it. Altered it from ON to OFF - lo and behold - problem solved!!

Thanks for usual assistance lads!!

Happy New Year!!

Dave

Now you really don't want to hear the trouble I've had in the last 5 hours trying to upgrade Vista to W7! lol!!

BTW it wouldn't, had to do a Custom Installation!
