But that does call to mind an experiment to prove/disprove the oil
theory. I just cleaned my own remote and its working 100% with just a
light press on the keys. I plan to wrap the remote pad in metalized
polyester to see if that acts as a barrier.

Bad idea . . . remote is taking more pressure this morning, so if it
is migrating through the membrane it is filling the membrane so my
experiment won't prove anything.

But that suggests a second experiment: soaking the keypad in hot dish
detergent over night.
