How GossTech diagnoses Nobel TVs — our step-by-step approach
- Initial remote consultation: You call or message with the TV model, serial (if available) and a short description of the fault. We give an estimated diagnostic fee and available slots.
- Onsite quick check: For common issues (no power, remote faults, ports), we do a free or low-cost onsite check and often fix minor issues immediately.
- Pickup / Workshop diagnostics: For complex faults (panel, motherboard, power supply), we arrange a secure pickup or you bring the set to our workshop. We perform a full bench diagnostic: visual inspection, power rail checks, capacitor ESR, signal tracing and firmware checks.
- Detailed quote: After diagnosis we provide a written quote showing parts, labour, and estimated turnaround time. No repairs without your approval.
- Repair & testing: We repair using tested parts, reflow techniques, or replace faulty boards and components. Every repair undergoes extended burn-in to ensure reliability.
- Customer handover & warranty: Repaired sets are tested with the customer (if onsite) or delivered back with a repair report and warranty on parts and labour.

Preventive maintenance: extend the life of your Nobel TV
- Keep the TV in a well-ventilated area — avoid enclosing it in tight cabinets without airflow.
- Use a voltage stabilizer or surge protector to protect sensitive electronics from power spikes.
- Clean vents and dust the back of the TV periodically (with the set unplugged).
- Avoid placing the TV near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
- For smart TVs, check for firmware updates regularly and avoid installing unknown apps.
