How GossTech Diagnoses & Repairs Panasonic TVs — Our Step-by-Step Process
- Initial Triage (Phone / Chat): Tell us your model number and symptoms (e.g., Panasonic TX-50GX800B — no picture). We give upfront guidance and estimate whether it’s likely a simple fix or a board/panel job.
- On-site or Workshop Pickup: For simple fixes we can do on-site in Nairobi. For board-level or panel repairs we collect the TV (or the customer brings it to our workshop). Pickup options are available for locations across Nairobi and other major towns.
- Power & Safety Checks: We begin with safe mains isolation and visual inspection — blown fuses, bulging capacitors, burnt components, loose connectors.
- Instrumented Testing: We test power rails, backlight voltages, T-CON signals, audio rails, and verify firmware versions with calibrated equipment.
- Fault Isolation: We use board swapping (when spare parts are available), connector checks and in-circuit testing to isolate the failed component.
- Repair or Replace:
- Component-level repair (preferred): Replace failed capacitors, diodes, regulators, ICs, connectors.
- Module replacement: Replace power board, main board, T-CON, or Wi-Fi module when necessary.
- Panel replacement: If the LCD/OLED panel is irreparably damaged we provide a panel replacement quote (panels are quoted separately).
- Firmware & Calibration: When repairs require software updates or factory calibration we flash the correct Panasonic firmware and re-calibrate picture/audio settings.
- Burn-in & Quality Test: Repaired sets undergo a minimum test cycle (picture/audio/network) to ensure reliability.
- Customer Handover: We demonstrate the fix, explain what was done, and provide care tips. Contact details and job documentation are supplied.
Typical Repair Scenarios & What To Expect (Table)
Repair type | Typical parts used | Typical outcome |
---|---|---|
Power-board repair | Electrolytic capacitors, diodes, MOSFETs, fuses | Restores power — often lower-cost than board swap |
Backlight repair | LED strips, inverters, LED drivers | Restores brightness/contrast; may require panel disassembly |
T-CON / image processing | T-CON board, ribbon cables | Fixes lines/banding and image artifacts |
Main board / smart issues | Main board replacement, firmware | Restores apps/networking and HDMI port function |
Panel replacement | Replacement LCD/OLED panel (model-specific) | Restores full screen but higher cost due to panel price |

Pricing, Quotes & What Affects Cost
Repair costs depend on the fault and parts. Major cost drivers:
- Board-level repair vs module replacement — replacing a module (main board, T-CON) costs more than component-level fixes.
- Panel replacement — the screen/panel is usually the most expensive part and is quoted separately.
- Smart features / firmware — some models require paid firmware or proprietary modules.
- Availability of genuine parts — original Panasonic modules vs compatible aftermarket parts.
We provide a free initial diagnosis quote (phone triage) and a detailed repair estimate once the TV is inspected. Contact us for a no-obligation quote.

FAQ — Fast Answers
Q: Do you replace Panasonic TV panels?
A: Yes — when panels are available we supply and fit replacement panels. Because panels are model-specific and can be costly, we always quote panel replacements separately.
Q: Do you offer a warranty on repairs?
A: Repairs include a workmanship guarantee; specific warranty terms depend on the repair and parts used. We will outline warranty terms on the repair invoice.
Q: How long does a repair take?
A: Simple repairs (remote, small board fixes) may be same-day or 24–48 hours. Board-level work may take 2–5 days depending on parts. Panel replacements depend on part availability. We give realistic timelines with every quote.
Q: Can you fix smart TV app/network problems?
A: Yes — we diagnose firmware and network module issues and reflash or replace modules as needed.
Care & Preventive Tips for Panasonic TVs
- Keep vents clear — good airflow prevents overheating.
- Use a surge protector to protect the power board from spikes.
- Avoid prolonged direct sunlight on screens to prevent panel damage.
- Update firmware when Panasonic issues official updates (we can help).
- If you notice flicker or lines, power off and contact us — early fixes are cheaper.
