#66045 - 03/02/2002 00:40 Dead remote on new Empeg
vkb new poster Registered: 26/01/2002 Posts: 10	Just a note to those out there receiving the newest alotment of the 'last of the Riocars' from SonicBlue. I received mine yesterday and the remote worked for one day before the battery died. When it happened I initially thought the remote was busted because it completely ceased to work on the third button press of entering a search. It was the fact that my player has a sticker on it indicating that it was manufactured in May 2001 that made me immediately think of the age of the battery in the remote.

My remote was replaced free of charge, and have had no problems since. _________________________ 1993 MR2 MK2a 32gb. 1991 NSX unfortunately with and IPOD.
