There were used in lots of VHS machines back in the day, and failed with depressing regularity. The symptoms resulting varied a lot, depending on the design of the equipment, but the most common one was no results from the microcontroller - often looking like an entirely dead machine.
Those buttons are among the buttons that change their codes if the remote is set to control some other device. As I say, just press "Receiver" to put the remote back into the default mode and all will be well.
Incidentally, I think it's C204 rather than C202. It's hard to see how it could have caused the symptoms described beyond the possibility of it pulling down the supply rail such that the microcontroller and other stuff was still happy, but perhaps some of the transistor circuits were not? But then, you would have checked the power supply rails first of all, right?
As the user manual doesn't seem to be available within an easy few clicks, plus you now have the information you need, I'll merge these two threads in a moment.
