List of Common Television Problems, Solutions, and Repair Times
Here's a detailed breakdown of the TV faults we handle most often — and how long repairs typically take.
1. TV Won't Turn On / No Power
Cause: Faulty power supply board, blown fuses, damaged capacitors, or a failed main board.
Solution: Power board repair or replacement, capacitor replacement, or fuse replacement.
Repair time: 1–3 hours same-day in most cases.
2. TV Turns On But No Picture (Black Screen)
Cause: Failed backlight LEDs, faulty T-con board, or main board failure.
Solution: Backlight strip replacement, T-con board replacement, or main board repair.
Repair time: 1–3 days — backlight replacements take longer due to careful screen disassembly.
3. Cracked or Broken Screen
Cause: Accidental impact or pressure damage.
Solution: Full screen/panel replacement. Note: panel costs can approach the price of a new TV, so we always advise honestly on whether repair is worthwhile.
Repair time: 3–7 days (panels are usually ordered from manufacturers).
4. Lines on the Screen (Vertical or Horizontal)
Cause: Faulty T-con board, loose ribbon cables, or panel damage.
Solution: T-con board replacement or cable reseating.
Repair time: 1–2 days.

Cause: Failed speakers, audio amplifier fault, or main board issue.
Solution: Speaker replacement or audio IC repair on the main board.

Cause: Deteriorated backlight LEDs or failing backlight driver.
Solution: LED backlight replacement and driver board repair.

- Saves money — repairs typically cost a fraction of a new TV
- Extends lifespan — a serviced TV can last years longer
- Protects the environment — repairing reduces e-waste
- Preserves picture quality — original panels and parts keep your display performing as intended
