manhattan plaza remote

[welshpaddy]

anybody know cheapest place to get a replacement remote for a manhattan plaza st500 all the ones ive seen are around£35

I've had quite a few of these go bad, where you have to push the buttons so hard you think it will break. There must be a universal repair kit for remotes by now as they all mainly use rubber buttons and conductive pads. I guess a soft pencil on the bottom of the pads will give it a bit more life but......

Any ideas ?

Hi there Welshpaddy, open your remote and clean
contacts with nail varnish remover or something similar
I do it all the time,post here and let us know how it goes.:respect-051:

Does anyone have an old ST350 remote they don't want please?
Assume ANY ST100-500 remote would do same job too!

Try bay/gumtree may be lucky or contact manhattan direct.
Maybe a universal rc will do it?

Cheers mate - gumtree one is for whole stb, but I only want a remote for my son-in-law who's using my old ST 350!!
There IS one on ******* but not cheap - just that my daughter's Jack Russell chewed top end of original remote, so I'm not over-happy!! lol!!
