Hi folks
Looking for a bit of advice.
My kitchen tv has gone a bit faulty.
The tv turns on but no picture is on the screen. I can hear the sounds. The only thing plugged in is an aerial and I’ve tried removing that to see if it helps but nothing. I can see the backlight is on and the leds flash when I press the remote.
Im a bit stumped as everything was fine the day before. It has just decided to stop working.
I’ve tried the button press combinations that’s meant to reset it but it doesn’t. With no picture I can’t navigate through the menus to reset it either.
Local tv repair shop wants £40 to check it and a further for parts or some places take it away and pay me £20-30.
Not sure if I should try and repair it as there’s parts available on eBay or bite the bullet and buy a new one but that’s difficult to justify when most of the time it’s watching bbc news while I’m having breakfast.
Any ideas or suggestions what I should try before giving up?
Cheers
