Will this work to replace the 7251V stock remote? What keeps the battery cover tab from breaking like the stock remote? Can you add a picture of the back of the remote?

The remote will replace you 7251V stock remote because I had the same one and in to of that the buttons are stiffer and the back isn't made the same; it's actually snapped together on the front and refuses to be removed mistakenly....haven't had an accidental start up or any broken parts yet. It also took the rain season here in Miami great.

Ronald, I can't say for sure it will work. The model # for my tv showed up as one of the televisions compatible with the replacement remote. If you are unsure, ask Sony. If not, replace it with a universal remote that you KNOW will at least work somewhat. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

I have added a photo showing the remote with the battery compartment open. That should help.

No you should be able to take it out of the box and use it right away. My remote came with a battery and it has worked with no problems. If you need to a battery, there is one that works, simply use a nickel or coin to open the back and there is a number on the battery to which you replace with the same type. I didn't have to do all of that but just in case you do, it's simple.

The answer is; it should. I personally have one of the older 2 way remotes that you speak of, and the 7752V replaced it.

I'm not sure, but there might be a small piece of plastic over the battery in the remote that needs to be removed. It would help to keep the battery from discharging prior to use.

When I received my remote, it worked just like the original remote did. You need to make sure that the new remote has the same code in it as the old remote. The code switches are located in the battery section of the remote. As far as returns, I don't know, you will have to check out the companies return policy. Good luck with your remote.

This remote should be listed in your user manual and it should be the same representation or picture as is the original remote.

If you mean that you want to remove the rear cover I doubt that could be done without breaking the remote. The battery is accessible by pushing the small tab on the side of the tray towards the tray and sliding the tray out. Look at the diagram on the back cover of the remote. Hope this helps.

It doesn't work with stock cover, I received a new black cover with my extended battery

I called the dealer and was informed of the replacement I need. I used it to replace the 7153X and was told I can use the 7254V, 7254C, or 7254X.

I can't say for sure if it will fit. The remote I have is a 7752v they are very similar in dimensions. They do make a cover specifically for your model I would go with that one to be on the safe side.

Yes, I believe so. See, the batteries are designed so that they only fit in one way, and only the correct battery will fit. So if it slides in all the way and the cover closes correctly, then you should be in business. Also, don't be worried if the remote doesn't immediately turn back on... The new battery might be fully discharged.

All I can tell you is it worked great as a replacement for the stock remote.

The battery can be replaced by opening back of remote. The replacement battery is CR2032.

Yes I had the same issue - It's been a while but I believe I found that the "sticker" cover on the remote is upside down. once I pulled it off and turned it the remote worked fine. Now it's horrible on battery life but that's a separate issue. My daughter didn't like it anyway so I have one that was used like twice and now sits in her closet.

Why in the world would you need to get into the remote? Are you just trying to replace the battery? That is done from the bottom end of the remote if it is not functioning properly pull the plastic insulator tab out between the battery and the contact.as somebody who is busy messing with lots of LED lighting types and finding all kinds of problems and solutions of late I actually am really curious as to why you want to get in to the remote back. Maybe I'll learn something from you.
