Hi All,
I acquired a Hitachi C32WD2TN2 TV for nothing via a recycle group. It has a fault that I'm hoping will be easily repaired - maybe even by myself.
The TV switched off whilst in use and the previous owners couldn't get it to come back on. I read a thread in this forum that suggests it could well be dry solder joints? When I plugged it in and tried changing channels The screen flashes a little with vertical white light in the middle, as though it's trying to display a picture..
The TV has been repaired once before and a label left by the repair shop suggests the fault was an EPROM. Does that lend any clues to the problem?
How easy is it to learn how to repair TV's yourself?
Is this TV good enough to be worth my paying for a repair shop to fix it? I'll also have to source and pay for a remote..
BTW, this is my first post to the forum so sorry for asking so many dumb questions.
