If you are interested in the last option and doing the HDTV repair yourself the money that you spend will be less than the other options.
In most cases even though the problem may present itself to be a big challenge, it will turn out to be a simple fix that almost anyone can do.
Why send your HDTV to a repair shop and get charged hundreds of dollars when you can do the HDTV repair for much less.
Of course you will need some basic tools to get started like a screwdriver, solder, a soldering iron, and some flux cleaner and maybe some solder wick.
If you don't know what any of these items are I advise you to call your local professional and choose one of the earlier options mentioned above.
On the other hand, if you do then continue reading.
As you can see I am bypassing the most common troubleshooting tips like checking your cables and so forth.
I am going on the assumption that you have tried all the common methods already.
I have done research and for many models of HDTV's you can find videos or websites explaining how to repair your television for the most common problems with that particular brand or model.
It is important to know that when replacing components you must replace with same value or slightly higher value components and if the part has polarity labels on it, you must install the replacement the same way as the one that was removed.
I have noticed that some video demonstrations do not clarify that and if you do not install a part correctly it will not work and all of your effort will be wasted.
Whenever you are ready to begin with your HDTV repair whether it is a lcd or plasma repair you must allow plenty of space to work with and make sure you observe all safety precautions like unplugging the television from the wall socket and allow time for the charged components to discharge.
Keep all your tools and supplies at the ready to complete the repair in a timely and efficient manner.
Make sure to keep everyone else out of the area including pets.
Before you actually are ready to do the HDTV repair you have to determine what is the cause of the failure and to do that you must open your television to inspect for damaged components.
If you can do that you are well on your way.
The rest is just a matter of purchasing the right replacements and doing the installation yourself with the tools that I have mentioned earlier and you are done.
