Apple TV remote up and down buttons no longer work

Apple TV remote up and down button no longer work but the left and right still work. In order to change channels I have to swipe up and down but would prefer the up and down buttons. I have reset, repaired and still doesn't work.

could be the microswitches under the plastic that have broken, in which case your only option is to live with it

or buy a new remote

Siri Remote - Apple


before you spend any money if you know someone else with an appletv you can verify the remote is defect by testing it with their setup
