Forkinhades Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Try your local Thai market, there should be a stall that sells 2nd hand remotes.Some smart phones have an app that can do it aswell.

yaagjon Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I was told that it is just as easy to buy a new one at the Samsung shop than get it repaired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmicheald Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 When my remote went bad, I got a new one at an electronics shop on Theprasit Road about 1/2 a kilometer up from second road toward Sukhimvit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobblyjohn Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Soi Buakhow Friday market, west side, 250 baht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Pretty sure Amorn in the basement of Tukcom on Pattaya Tai can do it. I know they repair air con remotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toenail Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I picked up a rare Toshiba remote at the "basement" store across from Tops at Tukcom- don't expect to get assistance from the 3-4 clerks ( too busy looking at their phones or cutting fruit). Many TV & AC remotes there so know the number you need.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) There are also "universal" remotes that can be used with hundreds of differnt Tvs really cheap now I recently got one from Hardware house ( HUAYU universal tv remote HR-133+ID ) for a neighbour who said she had an LG tv, turned out it was a TCL tv after quite a long search the remote was able to operate her TV 180 baht + 20 baht for batteries Amorn in the basement of Tukcom south Pattaya road ( normally )has a large selection of remotes. At the night market on Theprasit there is a section the Thais call "the dark market" because there is no supplied electricity there are very often people selling second hand remotes there, you can check they work by pointing the remote into the camera lens of a mobile phone with the camera app open when pressing buttons on remote you'll see on the phone screen that the remote LED lights up or blinks Also on Theprasit near the night market but other side of the road ( near the petrol station ) are 2 good electronic component shops that are worth checking for remotes Edited January 17, 2017 by johng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattjock Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Lots of replies but I would have thought that the first place to go to would be the Samsung Service Centre on Sukhumvit , near the Thepprasit crossing. The technicians there will probably be able to fix it or they will sell or give you a new remote depending on your warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepattaya1961 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I got mine Sony remote repaired at the electronics shop in the basement of TukCom. Don't know what the problem was, but it works again for THB 200 If you enter the shop, you'll find the repair counter on the left, just 4-5 meter past the cashier. As said in a previous post....don't expect staff to approach you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
