Dead TV or Blinking Lights

A Dead condition usually occurs when ICs, transistors or other components fail.  The safety shutdown circuit in the power supply senses the problem and stops the TV from turning on. Sometimes the failed component is a part of a Processor or Display Driver circuit board that must be replaced. Sometimes power supply is damaged and needs replacement also. Sometimes problem is power supply board only.

Defective Screen Assembly
(do not repair)

The first step in assessing your LCD or Plasma TV is to determine if the screen assembly is defective. If the display or screen assembly is damaged or defective, the  parts are too expensive for repair. Screen assemblies are typically supplied by the manufacturer at a higher cost than a complete, new TV.  The image at the top of the page shows common screen faults

Estimate cost is $65 to $95 inc. s/call.

LCD and Plasma screens are fragile and the slightest bump can render them useless. Plastic parts discolor within some Plasma screens and cause Brown or Green tinted pictures. Plasma screens also suffer from non-repairable Burn-in of bright or non moving images.
