Hi - I'm no technophile, so I don't know if the bulb on my remote can be replaced or if I need to just buy a new remote ... ? Thanks for any help.

You can check to see if the remote is at least sending out ir signals by looking at the LED through a digital camera viewport while pressing a key. A digital camera can pick up the ir light as white light and you would see it flashing.

Thanks for your help -- I don't have a digital camera, but I'll send that info to all my kids and grandkids. By the way, I LOVE your city! Marie
