I swapped the PCB from a working switch to the one that stopped working and switch works fine - guess a bad PCB !
From what I saw a replacement PCB is unavailable on Lionel parts site
Found one at Trainz that has same # imprinted on PCB so I am hoping that works!

I purchased the switch used. After months of working fine, I can no longer control switch using remote toggle.
switch is powered from track
Indicator light on switch works
C
No light on remote toggle and it no longer activates switch direction
it is not a “command” switch
I swapped out remote toggle to another remote switch that I have and it worked fine - I also tested for continuity from terminal block for wires from remote toggle to the PCB and continuity tested fine
I place train car on out track and switch automatically switched rail from straight to out so motor turning switch seems to be working
Not sure where to continue from here
Thinking about swapping PCB from working remote switch to rule out PCB
Apprecite any suggestions/ recommendations for fix
