Replacement Remote Control For Cary SLP 05 Preamp

Hi
I was wondering if anyone has successfully replaced their remote control for the SLP 05 with a generic one or a universal learning remote and care to share their experience.
I have the old small 3 button one that only does volume up, down and mute. It is becoming a tad unresponsive lately and I presume it cannot be repaired.

Cary only stocks a full feature one where all the other functions are redundant for the SLP 05 and it costs $125 plus shipping.
Just wondering if I can replace it more cost effectively.
Thanks

I’ve been using these for years. Copy your remote commands to it in case the original is lost or broken. If it takes the commands the problem might be the IR receiver.

I use one to control me pre, sub level and DAC.
