I've taken several TVs apart over the years and the IR receiver is generally located on a tiny circuit board with the switches (or the one and only switch on newer TVs) and power light/LED. You may be able to get a part number off of it and find a replacement on ebay or you can try to just replace the IR photodiode (receiver) that's a small 2-pin device. You can probably find them on Amazon or for pennies from China. If you're really ambitious, you could even test the one that's in there now.
