Remote volume buttons don't change TV volume
If only volume buttons don't work while other buttons do, clean those buttons with a dry cloth. If they're still stuck, the remote needs replacement.
When only volume buttons fail while other buttons work, it's those buttons are stuck, dirty, or damaged. Cleaning commonly fixes it.
