Others have made suggestions. I *think* there is a battery somewhere to 
change. Like you, the one I work on just goes.

One problem (Barry has this in the BDR somewhere). If you've not done 
this, shut down, CAREFULLY remove the factory metal air filters, get 
some non-metal ones of same size, Vacuum out all the pieces of metal

Been a while since I've done that but "some"' of the factory filters 
"shed" metal pieces.

ON the one maintain, the remote control works, as do the front panel 
buttons.
