If you take a barreries out the TV remote then it starts working again, but next day will be broke again.

I have a 21" LCD LG TV, it doesn't have any fancy eco setting on it or anything. It started in think in late january.

Has anyone else seen this, if so any ideas what it is?

Weve had a few instances of the tv switching itself on when im sure it had previously been off.
I use a remote extender from another room and i was also putting it down to the remote but cant prove it one way or the other.
