Our Spektronik PLTV3250 television remote control quit working. We were told the remote control for that brand was no longer available, but the Protron remote would work. We ordered it, and it looked identical to the original remote except for having "Protron" on it instead of "Spektronik". Now the Protorn remote has quit working. Can it be repaired? We were sold (on eBay) another remote that is supposed to directly replace the Protron remote, an LG MKJ40653833, and that it would work with no codes. It doesn't work at all - doesn't do a THING to the television. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

Hi jim
I doubt that you`ll be able to do something with the lg remote.
Now you asked"can it be repaired?"
In many cases ; yes it can be repaired and you have two of them which means that your doubling your chances.
I can help you with it but first i`d like to know if you have a soldering iron?
Be waiting for your answer
Remotes in general are very difficult to service, I would remove the batteries, leave it for an hour and put in brand new batteries, this will reboot the remote.
Failing that buy a Lodgitech Harmony remote or a universal remote, they are far better and more veristile then OEM remotes.
Great information can be found here aswell:

Hi
There is no Point in getting the Remote repaired as the cost of Repair would be much more than the new remote. Yes, Original Remote is not available.The substitute remote is :-
http://remotes.com/store/protron/pltv3250.html
Is that the same one you purchased? Have you programed it correctly?
It could be an issue with the TV. The IR sensor which senses the signal from the remote might be Defective.
Let me know, if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
