Does it make sense to repair your TV? Is it possible to repair a plasma TV if the screen is broken?

To get an answer to this question, first of all, you need to familiarize yourself with the device and features of such a screen. Between two glass planes there is a structure consisting of a matrix, which is the basis of a plasma TV and is divided into many special cells coated with phosphors and filled with neon and xenon.

Conductors located around the perimeter of the matrix create an electrical discharge, which, passing through a gaseous environment, contributes to the formation of ultraviolet glow. And it already creates the glow of phosphors. As a result, the cells burn in the right color and create an image on the screen.

It is worth noting that plasma TV It is lightweight, and this is one of those qualities that users appreciate. This is achieved, first of all, due to the thickness of the screen glass, which is only 2 millimeters. However, there is another “side of the coin” - as a result of such thickness, the screen becomes very fragile, and its resistance to various mechanical influences decreases.

What to do if cracks appear on the screen

Since the matrix is ​​the basis of a plasma TV, as a result of cracks on the glass, it is also damaged. As a result, the mixture of gases comes out. Even the most highly professional specialist cannot repair such a breakdown. There is only one option - replacing the matrix. However, it is worth noting that this part has a fairly high price. Therefore, the best way out of this situation, according to many experts, is to purchase a new TV.

Is it worth replacing a damaged matrix on a plasma screen?

The solution to this issue depends on many reasons, for example:

  • on the model, brand and price of the TV;
  • depending on whether similar matrices are being produced or have already been discontinued, and so on.

If the TV model is already outdated, then most likely it will be impossible to buy a matrix designed for it in a store. However, in this case, you can contact service centers that buy back non-working TVs; perhaps they will be able to select a “donor” for the damaged device.

You can repair a plasma TV if the screen is broken and when the model is expensive and has a huge range of different functions. However, here too it is worth noting that the cost of repairs will cost from 50 to 70 percent of the cost of the device itself.

It happens that as a result of damage, the gas does not escape from the matrix, and the plasma screen begins to ripple, the image is lost, and stripes appear. In this case, the matrix can be reconfigured. Of course, such repairs will cost much less than the replacement itself.

In order to make a choice the right decision If you have a problem, you can contact Yandex Market. This is where you can get excellent, highly qualified help from real professionals, which will help users save not only their cash, but the huge amount of time required for independent decision this issue.

How to protect your plasma screen from damage

Everyone knows that it is better to prevent any “disease” of technology than to treat it. Therefore, for protection plasma screens the best option there will be a special purchase protective screen made from acrylic. He will become reliable protection from any mechanical influences:

  • being hit by toys;
  • scratching with hard objects;
  • getting wet with water and so on.

Besides everything else, acrylic screen will protect the “plasma” from dust, which is one of the dangerous enemies of modern plasma screens. By purchasing such protection, the user will be able to calmly enjoy watching their favorite programs for a long time and be calm about the safety of their TV.

In good terms, it’s better to choose new TV, somewhere on the Yandex market.

Repair costs for LCD monitors and TVs
The cost of repairing an LCD monitor or LCD TV depends on the size of the screen. The larger the diagonal, the more complex the matrix is ​​organized, the more backlight lamps are used and the more complex the inverter. The final cost of repairs is determined as a result of diagnostics.

The main malfunctions of LCD monitors and LCD TVs:

  • Faulty power supply board.In this case, the primary ones burn out electrical circuits, the internal circuits often remain intact. In this situation, the monitor does not turn on and the LEDs do not light up.
  • Mechanical damage to the matrix. Water or other liquids or foreign objects get into the device. Part of the image, stripes, or streaks may be displayed. Objects falling inside can be fatal to the monitor.
  • Voltage inverter failure. The inverter is responsible for supplying high voltage to the backlights. In this case, the screen will be dark, when illuminated under table lamp- faded.
  • Failure of backlight lamps. The display is either dim or completely dark. Lamps can “die” due to mechanical damage, “shrink”, or simply burn out due to their operation during increased brightness. Often, due to lamp failure, the power supply fails.
  • Failure of the control board with the processor. In this case, the image may be geometrically distorted, a message about incorrect resolution, frequency, or parameters may be displayed, and the image may move.

Svetlana Cruz Mendoza 15.05.2012

Hello! The LG monitor has been in use for 3.5 years, about a week ago it started turning on, flashing a blue indicator for a long time with a black screen. After blinking, it works as usual, only the image is a little fainter. Today it blinked for exactly 2 hours before the image appeared. No defects were noticed during the work. What is the problem and how quickly can it be resolved under your service conditions? The job doesn't wait, it's urgent!

The qualifications of our craftsmen allow us to carry out repairs of any complexity, but in some cases, restoring equipment may not be cost-effective.

Is it worth repairing your TV?

The question is not idle, although, as a repair company, we must convince the client that repairing a TV is undoubtedly more profitable than buying a new one, but this decision is made individually for a specific device. In our opinion, it is worth it in cases where the equipment has not yet exhausted the resource built into it, that is, televisions with a medium and short service life, expensive and elite models, regardless of the operating time, all other televisions, if repairs can be made at the component level.

During component repair, the technician identifies the fault down to the assembly unit - capacitor, transistor, microcircuit, etc. This allows you to keep prices for services at a level where repairing a device is more profitable than buying a new one.

If you have an outdated model of CRT TV, LCD or plasma TV with the need to replace the matrix or plasma panel, as well as a device in which expensive units need to be replaced, the decision on the cost-effectiveness of repairs is made by the client. Our specialists can only give advice or advice regarding the prospects for repairs and the costs of restoring the TV.

Concerning modern designs television equipment, it should be noted that the possibilities for repairing televisions at the component level are becoming less and less. Manufacturers are waging a merciless war for the buyer, stimulating the research and development of new television equipment products, testing new technologies, using modern materials and electronic components, introduce elements of computer devices into the TV.

Widespread use of BGA chips in television boards, microminiaturization, use of multilayer printed circuit boards, installation on SMD elements is significantly difficult renovation work, requiring the use of expensive and high-tech equipment for diagnostics and repair, and turn the board or block into a separate assembly unit. Repairing such a part is fraught with significant difficulties and often ends with its replacement. Ultimately, this benefits the manufacturer: expensive equipment repairs motivate the consumer to buy a new one.

What are the qualifications of the craftsmen?

The company employs people who, according to by and large, can be classified as an expert in their profession. Here the point is not only in the vast experience of work that they possess, but rather in the desire to perform it at a high level professional level, in responsibility for the result of this work, in perseverance and the desire to identify an elusive defect, no matter how much time it takes to eliminate it.

Carrying out repairs at the component level, a technician can spend hours conjuring an unyielding TV, testing one hypothesis after another, measuring, comparing, analyzing. We are not talking about typical defects that are well known to specialists, when TV repair turns into a purely mechanical work to replace a faulty part with a working one. The conversation about when the nature of the defect is unknown is not described on forums where craftsmen share their secrets, when the manifestation of the malfunction is extended over time, depends on temperature or other factors. In such situations, troubleshooting is creative, and identifying the defect and restoring the TV's functionality brings a sense of satisfaction from a job well done.

The positive emotions from being able to “revive” a hopeless patient outweigh small salaries, the stress of dealing with unbalanced clients, and the time lost on repairs. Knowing that you can do this gives you confidence and the desire to continue working, and what’s better is when a person likes his job and his profession. And our profession is TV repair, to which we have been trained and dedicated our whole lives. We are engaged interesting thing, which brings pleasure not only to our clients, but also to ourselves.

The company employs craftsmen who have known each other for 20-30 years, but the team has never encouraged greed, deceiving the client, lack of commitment, or dishonesty. Over such a long period of time, our employees have accumulated not only a huge professional experience, but also the experience of communicating with people, guided by the principles of simple human decency.
