What test equipment is needed to repair projection and LCD tv's? I was in the TV repair business for many years, many years ago. It became hard to make a living because at that time you could replace a TV nearly as cheap as repairing but With the cost of the new LCD's & Plasmas I'm thinking it may be a good time to jump back into the business and was wondering what test equipment I would need to service these units.

What are all the ex TV repair engineers doing now that its cheaper to buy new than have stuff repaired? I was once a tv engineer but over the years as rental declined i found I had to adapt to other types of electronics to survive automotive test equipment, warehouse control systems,computers and now industrial electronics How many other trades have to keep changing to survive looking back I should have been an electrician as they seem to be in a better position work wise nowadays but in my day electronics was the best trade to get into. What are you doing now? Do you still repair tv's Do you think your knowledge and expertise has gone to waste. How much junk from the old days do you still keep to your wifes annoyance? I have even found skilled techs driving fork trucks for a living as it pays better money now than repairing electronics.

how do i know the TV repair guy is qualified? I have an enclosed projection style tv and two of the lenses have collected some dust. I want someone to come look at it and clean them, but if they break anything in the tv am I "s o l ?" Id like to do it myself, if anyone could give me a hint, Im just worried it's full of a gas or something and I don't want to break it. okay to try to spare the rest of the idiot answers. I was wondering if they had levels of licensing, like journeyman papers for an electrician and the like. Wish half of you actually took the time to research something and didn't just blurt out some pathetic if it doesn't blow up ... lets say he breaks something and the whole set is trash, do they cover the cost of a new one? I'm asking because I've never had to call a repairman and I don't want to get ripped. Ircks me that some of you want 2 friggin points that badly. might as well say I don't know.
TV repair chap required. Philips TV losing sound randomly? I have a Philips 32pw6006/05 TV. The picture is always top quality, but sometimes the sound just goes off with no warning. It sometimes comes back after a few minutes and sometimes doesn't...If I change the volume setting, higher or lower the sound comes back almost immediatley. This can happen once a week, or ten times during the same programme. When I'm watching a dvd it never happens. I've had a tv repair man out twice who 'fixed it' however its still happening...! Please help before it drives me crazy!
How much would it cost to repair my TV? I have a projection screen TV (I know, a little old-school, but it's 52", so I'd like to fix it if possible).

How to repair cable connector of the CRT TV? I have a two-year-old CRT Toshiba TV, and very occasionally watched. Recently when I tried to move it, I forgot to unscrew the cable from the back panel of TV first. So the cable (antenna connector) was ripped off from the TV.

What is the average cost of repair for a buzzing 32" LCD TV? I have a 32" Visco LCD TV that has held up pretty well for the last two years, but now it has a loud buzzing sound that seems to come from the speakers and across all inputs. Sometimes it's okay, but other times it's louder than the show I'm watching.
