TV lift remote replacement

We have a 2013 Montana 3625RE with a TV lift in the entertainment center, Like all remotes eventually do the remote for the Lift remote walked away and left us. No everyone knows that it would be barbaric to camp without a large TV I need a way to replace the remote or wire in a switch to raise and lower the TV.

I am getting beaten to death about the possibility of not having a TV for the upcoming winter in Florida so I would appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks

Our lift in our 3800 has a switch in the cabinet that houses the home theater system...far back on the left. Its wiring can be seen if you look down in the slot the tele rises out of. Also, lippert still sales the remote and lift electronics...at least they did a year or so ago. John

Yup, there is a switch already installed in the cabinet housing the TV. Ours is also on the left side. Jcurtis934 and I have the TV in a slide and yours is in the rear, but there is switch somewhere.

On our 2010 the switch was in the right hand side way in the back corner of the cabinet area.

After I discovered that Lippert wouldn't sell just the remote, someone else informed me about the switch hidden inside the lower left hand cabinet.

Thank you all for helping. I found the switch so as soon as I raised it I found the remote. It had fallen down it the well behind the tv.

That's about par for the course. With ours i had to build a cover for when the TV was up so the cats didn't get back there and refuse to come out.
