Remote for Sony vcr will work for anywhere from 1 to 12 commands, then stops working (all commands); must slip batteries in and out for it to work again; remote & battery terminals are clean (used eraser & nail file), batteries are full (tried several replacement sets), no difference. All commands work (when the remote works), but batteries must be moved back'n'forth against remote contacts for it to keep working. (Remote # is RMT-V402)
Step 1: Entering the Code Number
1 See the supplied "Component code numbers", and find the threedigit

If more than one code number is listed, use the number that's

the code number 035.
If your component isn't listed, see "Searching for the Correct
Code."

POWER button.
3 Press the button of the component that
you want to set up.

factory. But you can also assign other components on these buttons.

Thank you for taking the time "Grubhead", but this was not the problem, and no, no batteries ever leaked. Good suggestions though.
