    Default TV crapped out on me, repair shop?

    My TV recently took a shit, before I spend the cheddar to buy a new one, anyone know of a good repair shop?

    Depends on the type of TV.

    the bulb on my DLP went out last year and it was $300 to fix.. I regret fixing it cause then my hdmi ports went bad..

    Yeah...depending on the type of TV it might not be worth it to repair. I spent about $200 to fix a really nice Sony several years ago. Then something else broke on it.

    Upgraded to flat panel and now it doesn't take 3 guys to move the TV.

    It's usually not worth repairing TV's anymore. My old one died around Thanksgiving and the part I needed was around $350 so I got a new flat screen for $300. JMHO

    Look up the manual online (if you're anything like me.. I don't keep those).. the way the power light flashes can tell you the problem.

    That's what mine did when the bulb went out.. the power light would flash.

    Buy a new one when Jack gets his Job.. just think of his first month sales!
