No...but it DID happen after residing in the couch for a couple of hours. But still..I ask....is the remote damaged or did it shoot some signal to the player damaging it? Intriging mystery. The remote replacement company states that in 1 in 3 remotes....if you take out the batteries, and punch EVERY button on it , then re-insert them, it can fix it. Let me know if this works for you. I must be that other 2 and 3. ;-)

I don't think so. It needs to be programmed I guess. What do you mean by not working. broken? If not, did you try replacing battery of the remote. I never had a problem so far been using it more than an year.

I'm having the same problem. Do you know if you unplugged the unit while it was on? This happened with mine, and it is the only thing I can think of that happened to it. It still doesn't answer the question of whether replacing the remote will help, unfortunately.

Yes, I have to reset it every few days when we use a good mix of all 4 components and 2 TVs. It has the reset button on the remote, which is better than the others I've tried. It's programmed into my Logitech harmony remote.

It could be you have a bad battery. My suggestion to you is, to return the remote back to the seller and have them send you a new one. I haven't had any problems whatsoever.

There is a reset button on the opener that kills all programmed remotes. You need to do this right away if your remote was stolen. After resetting it you will have to re-sync all remote openers to your unit, (keypad, key fob, visor unit, etc.). You don't need to buy this key fob to cancel all the remotes you have programmed into your opener. Merely reset the opener. However if your key fob was stolen you undoubtedly will need a new one and I would recommend this one. The only problem I have had with it sometimes in my pocket when at home it can open randomly.

No you do not have to program again. Has a built-in battery that recharges itself when plugged-in through normal use. In fact mine when unplugged for the winter held a charge until May. Great and cheap item.

My remote worked just fine. As soon as you get it set the proper code install batteries and that's it.

I'm not sure, but there might be a small piece of plastic over the battery in the remote that needs to be removed. It would help to keep the battery from discharging prior to use.

When the battery is new it will last 3 days or so, depending on how much button pushing you do every time you take it, but in my case after 4 years having the remote, the battery is weak and or dying and i have to put it on the charger every night before going to sleep or it will be a dead battery next day when i am going to use the remote.

I had a remote that stop working, I changed the battery, still did not work. I order a new one. Sometimes thing just goes out. Good luck.

Yes like the others have stated below, when you program the replacement remote just do the same thing with each remote you want to add.

Yes, I had to replace mine after about 9 years of use and my remotes worked fine. This is an easy replacement. Unplug the garage motor, remove the old console and attach the color coded wires. Plug the garage motor in and it works like a champ.

Because this remote is total garbage and should be recalled ! Do not leave the batteries in this remote for any length of time, the batteries will overheat and leak inside the remote. When I called Samsung about purchasing a new remote for my smart TV because the batteries had leaked inside my remote they failed to mention that this has been an on going problem with this remote! I read the reviews on Amazon Everyone has same problem with batteries leaking !

The unhappy answer is NO. I have determined that if you take the batteries completely out of the remote after use, it works like a charm...takes 1 minute to"upload" when you put batteries back in...small price to pay!
