    Hello
    In Rzeszów you can buy Elmak, they make replacement remote controls.
    The question is whether the remote control got off or the sensor in the device?
    Set the camera in the cell on the remote control and press the button, the cameras in the cells "can see" infrared and you will see if the remote control emits something, if not, then look for the remote control, if so the sensor in the device may be damaged.

    The remote control is flooded, broken? Have you tried cleaning it? Some keys do not work, or quite dead, maybe just the battery basket is corroded? If you are focused on buying a new one in a stationary store, take this decoder with you. First of all you will be able to check if all functions work, after 2 you will confirm or exclude the guilt of your remote control. Do not suggest the mere appearance of the remote control, Manta may change their appearance but the code RC5 or RC6 will match. PS in the remote controls often get damaged by the rubber bands, located under the buttons (such black discs), then you can also check if the most used function, e.g. volume change, does not work.

    It depends whether you can do diagnostics and repairs yourself, if not, the costs may be close to the value of the device. Start by checking the remote control as suggested by Colonel PiotrPitucha, if there is a problem in the decoder then you can ask someone to check it and then decide to repair or replace it. Original or replacement is in my opinion a secondary matter if this and that will work. I have a personal aversion to universal, if it is used by a low-tech person, I might accidentally reprogram it and you need to search the code again. On a dedicated one, you do not have this problem, because you will insert the batteries and it will work.

    Hello
    I would like to emphasize that Elmak makes replacement remotes, they are not universal remotes so there is no risk of reprogramming, they may differ in casing but have the full functionality of the original.
    The sensor costs a few zlotys, there may be only a problem with the dimensions of the sensor to fit it in the housing, there is no electronic problem with replacement, but to not massacre the housing you need to gently disassemble the equipment.
    Did you check if the producer doesn't sell his pilots?
    greetings

    Have you checked if Manta's remote control is definitely damaged? You can buy a remote control that can work with your decoder for PLN 10-15 on the auction site.

    This is already # 10 statement and in 2 you got information on how to check if it is a remote control, you want to waste time searching for code and programming it, the way is free but I would start with what I can do the easiest and fastest.

    Hello
    All universal remote controls that I had in my hand had the option of searching for a code, after entering this function press the ON / OFF button on the remote control until it turns on (the tuner turns on) and we remember the code found. It takes a while, because good remote controls support about a thousand codes, but in the end there is a chance to hit.
    greetings
