Anecdotically, yet a few of my remotes after a decade of use on original batteries suddenly got less and less responsive. Change the batteries! Right?
Well, turned out the original batteries were still alive, but on a closer (painful to nails) inspection, it turned out that the silicon buttons/pad started leaching the oily goo onto the contacts on the PCB thus reducing the responsiveness.
Swabbing and washing restored these, but something tells me this problem will be back sooner than in another decade.
