Hi mate done this one before,just take it apart carefully and get a bit of sandpaper and clean just behind the infared bulb on the solder,better still if you have a solder gun just refresh the solder behind the bulb...

Take control apart carefully and just clean under where the ok button touches the board maybe it just needs a dust out
