http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/ For those who wish to discuss the more technical aspects of Satellite receivers and TVs. perhaps how to replace components, fault finding etc. en Sat, 21 Nov 2009 10:31:24 GMT vBulletin 60 http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/images/misc/rss.jpg http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/ http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/work-bench-soldering-station/163172-broken-lcd.html Sat, 14 Nov 2009 00:36:49 GMT 2 Questions for the tech guys...
I recently had some building work done and I removed a 26" LCD from the wall and placed it "Somewhere safe" but the builders managed to put some of their stuff on top of it and shattered the screen.....When I turn it on it has a huge spider web type pattern and a large black blob with a black crack going halfway up the screen...
I'm covered by Currys homecare plan and left it with them this evening to assess.My questions are (1)Do you guys think it can be repaired? I'd rather it can't as it was 4 years old..At the time it was quite expensive at 800 Euro..And (2) will Currys offer me a TV to the value of 800 Euro?

It had coffee spilled on it and that got under/into (unsure) the LCD, and obviously, that's pretty much boogered it up as is, so, any tips on how to clean it all out without causing further damage (bar tearing the ribbon or something!!!)? :) ]]> The Work Bench and Soldering Station 2cvbloke http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/work-bench-soldering-station/161543-coffee-under-lcd-screen.html http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/work-bench-soldering-station/160867-evesham-alqem37wx1080p-tv.html Fri, 09 Oct 2009 06:49:18 GMT I have the above model. A fault has been identified on the Inverter Board, Tx marked 6024B709005 -06. Does anyone know where I can obtain a replacement component? Cheers, Mac I have the above model.

Soooo, any ideas what to look for? It's very tightly packed into the case, so overheating and thus possibly the transformer has an open winding in it, or maybe a solder joint has cracked, but, it's all guesswork cos I have no experience in fiddling inside this sort of equipment... :(

Thanks in advance... :) ]]> The Work Bench and Soldering Station 2cvbloke http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/work-bench-soldering-station/160569-battery-charger-not-charging.html
