Check on the back of the TV to see if you have a "remote in" port. It will look the same as a 3.5mm headphone jack. Unplug the TV and plug a pair of headphone into the port and then remove it. Do this several times to breakup any debris that may have gotten into it or corrosion that may have occurred in the port. If something is in the port it will disable the standard remote sensor on the TV.
The receiver or something right around it---think you will find they only sell the whole board the receiver is on.

The IR sensor is in fact a "plug in device" .
The TV will have to be disassembled to replace the sensor.
You should make sure the remote is functioning before you do anything as drastic as taking your tv apart.
I am sure you have tried fresh batteries so the next step would be to hold down any button on the remote, the led light should have a faint pulse, it may be hard to see and you may have to go in a dark room but the led will pulse if the remote is good.
If you have a universal remote, program it for your tv and test functionality.
An RCA universal remote will work with your tv, if the codes don't work do a search with the remote.
If you decide to replace the sensor you should be able to find one at http://www.shopjimmy.com or http://partstore.com.

Must be the IR receiver usually is soldered on a circuit board. Time to call your warranty..

The fault may be on the control board. Sometimes the button switches can be stuck, or there may be something causing some conduction on the control circuit board. It is also possible to have a component failure that is causing a continuous command to keep the volume to the high position.
Something that causes failures of controls in TV sets is when people clean the screen, they spray liquid cleaner on the screen. Some of it drips down in to the controls and on to the circuit board. This will usually cause damage, and thus the set will require shop service.

Have an LG26Lx1D for about 3 years, dropped off by my son.(Figures).Power light just blinking, but went back to red.Removed back panel, and metal cover. Just above antenna/cable input, its a small fan,mine was full of dirt. Blow off dirt, and make sure its turning freely.
Install back the covers, an voila....its a miracle...its working again.
Good luck
