    Replacement TiVo remote

    Hi,

    My Tivo remote is not working properly. Some of the buttons do not work, and other buttons that do work do not perform the right functions. I already tried replacing the batteries, performing a hard reset, and added a new code in the settings area.

    I'm just wondering if the Tivo Glo remotes that are being sold on ebay from the US would work on my Australian Tivo? I have the standard Tivo remote and thought if I'm buying a replacement it would be nice to try the Glo remote that is not sold in AU anymore.

    Thanks!

    The remotes sold in the US should work as all the TiVo as the remotes all use the same codes. I have used remotes from the UK (Tompson), US (Sony,Phillips) and NZ(TiVo HD). All work on all TiVo versions.

    I am using a Tivo Glo remote 20231022_170520_resized.jpg20231022_170526_resized.jpg20231022_170537_resized.jpg

    Also I opened my old TiVo remote to clean all button contacts, I checked Capacitor C1, it should of been 220Uf (rated for 10 volts) and it was way out of speck. After soldering a new Capacitor from Jaycar, my old remote is working perfectly. But it could of been the cleaning of all contacts.

    The buttons leak oil over the years. mine did the same, if you open it up and clean the contacts it will be as good as new again.
