Introduction to TV Backlight Problems
Television screens have become more advanced, yet just like any other electronic device, they are prone to wear and tear. One of the most common issues users face is TV backlight failure. If your screen turns black, has dim or uneven lighting, or displays no image though sound is present, the backlight may be the culprit.
At GossTech Electronics, we specialize in TV backlight repair and replacement services in Nairobi and surrounding areas. With experienced technicians, high-quality parts, and a quick turnaround, we restore your TV's performance efficiently and affordably.
