hi, i'm looking for some help
we had a bit of a powercut this morning, and now our tv wont turn on - the standby light just keeps flashing on and off. theres no picture, and no sound.
we turned off the power altogether for an hour or so, but its still the same. any advice would be great, before i have to call in someone to repair it.
cheers ;)
First thing would be to unplug it from the wall overnight. If the set still does not work, there most likly a power supply circuit fault, such as a regulator IC. Good Luck, and please let us know how you made out.
hey again, just got my tv back yesterday, its working now, but it took a while for them to get it sorted out - apparently its not always easy to get the right replacement parts from Goodmans.
anyways, long story short, theres a chip in the goodmans tvs that the repair guy said they had to replace a lot. good to know :(
cheers guys, laters :D
any idea what ic was replaced on your lcd repair, have the same problem!!
and if poss the dealer concerned
hi mate
i just used a local repairer in town, and what they said was its quite a common chip that needs to be replaced, sounds like it was easy enough to do aswell. he didnt mention any names for the chip or anything like that. in total, including time spent, i think i paid about £80 to get it fixed, just to give u a rough idea how much it might cost to get repaired.
