The little Sony round remotes just die every once in a while. No way around it.

there are 2 connections on the back of the radio for the remote. 1 big plug and 1 small plug (looks like headphone jack). and depending on how far away from the radio your remote is installed, an extension is used on the big cable....so that could have come loose where the butt together.

If you can't figure it out let me know and I'll work out a deal to trade it in on a boat that has a radio control that works
