I have had some issues recently with some buttons not working then working again, I suspect my remote may need a clean but I cannot see a way to open it up, I have tried some gentle prising but nothing seems to flex or suggest it might move and there are no screws clips or catches that I can find.Has anyone here ever opened one up?
Funny tonight I had my first issue with the remote.
I pressed a button I rarely use namely the white Freeview Play button and it felt odd. Turns out it stuck down, managed to get it unstuck enough to get the green light off, but it was still lower than normal. Fiddled a bit more and got it back up to where it belongs.
Tried a few times and it’s definitely not happy. The remote is always kept spotless and never had anything spilt on it, so I can only conclude something has disintegrated underneath.
Will see if any instructions are suggested before I try and take it apart.
@Harters As nobody here or on the other Hummy site had responded with an solution I e.mailed Humax earlier and if they come back with an answer I will post it here.

Great thanks
I have also had problems with the Freeveiw Button, on close exmination the button appears to have a very thin plastic film covering it. It seems to become detached
This is causing the sticking, I managed I to remove some of it and restored it’s operation.
If it gets stuck now I hold the top and bottom of the remote and give it a couple of twists, this free’s it up.
After getting a reply from Humax suggesting I should change the batteries, reset to factory defaults and change to RF setting I again asked for details on opening up the remote as Idad already changed the batteries and to RF, This is their response

A search on YT found this though it did not exactly fill me with confidence

That really sums Humax up in a nutshell, doesn’t it….
Change the batteries, reset the box !!
