No volume control with remote, all other functions work remotely

[jmvogler53]

I have a Panasonic Home Theater System which has not been used for some time...the remote functions in every way as it should except for volume control. I can manually adjust volume on the unit itself, but the remote will not adjust volume. Any ideas? Seems odd that all other functions work remotely except for the volume...

Could it be that the remote has been configured / programmed to control the volume on some other equipment?

Thanks for the thought, but no.....the system has been out of service for some time.

You can check if the vol +- are sending IR

The most used buttons on remote controls are the ones that wear out.

or get a replacement remote.
