All TV Problems (listed one by one) — Diagnosis & How GossTech Repairs Them
Below is a comprehensive list of common faults you’ll see on modern televisions. For each fault we explain how GossTech diagnoses it and the typical repair fix we perform. Use this as a resource page for customers and search engines.
1. TV will not power on (no lights, dead)
Diagnosis: Check mains and power cord, fuse, standby LED, internal power supply (SMPS), capacitors, power board components, inlet switch.
GossTech process / repair: We test the wall socket, replace faulty cords or fuses, open the set to test the power board with a multimeter. Failed capacitors, blown MOSFETs, rectifiers or regulators are replaced with OEM-equivalent components. If the power board is irreparably damaged we fit a compatible replacement board.
2. TV powers on but screen is black (sound may be present)
Diagnosis: Backlight failure (LED strips or inverter), T-Con board fault, mainboard or panel signal issue.
GossTech process / repair: Measure LED/backlight voltages, test inverter/LED strips and T-Con continuity. Replace defective LED strips or the inverter board; if T-Con board is faulty we replace it and re-flash firmware if needed. We always test before/after repair and perform luminance calibration.
3. Dim or flickering screen
Diagnosis: Weak or failing LED strips, aging capacitors on the power board, loose LVDS cable, faulty dimming circuit.
GossTech process / repair: Inspect and replace failing capacitors and LED strips, reseat LVDS cable, and repair dimming circuits. For flicker caused by firmware/hardware mismatch we update firmware or replace the problematic board.
4. Lines on screen — horizontal or vertical lines
Diagnosis: Damaged T-Con board, failing panel ribbon connectors, or panel damage.
GossTech process / repair: We first test the T-Con and replace if necessary. If connectors/panel ribbons are loose or oxidized we clean and reseat them. For panel damage we advise replacement; we assess cost-effectiveness and provide a quote.
5. Colour problems (wrong colours, washed-out, green tint)
Diagnosis: Backlight color temperature issues, faulty mainboard/video processing ICs, or software calibration error.
GossTech process / repair: Re-calibrate color settings, update firmware, replace faulty ICs or video-processing boards, and test using calibration patterns.
6. Sound problems (no sound, distorted audio, intermittent)
Diagnosis: Faulty internal speakers, audio amplifier IC failure on mainboard, bad firmware, or external audio settings.
GossTech process / repair: Test with external audio sources, measure speaker resistance, replace blown speakers, repair audio amplifier sections on the board, or update firmware. We also offer external speaker/soundbar installation and setup.
7. TV restarts randomly or shows a boot loop
Diagnosis: Power instability, failing capacitors, overheating, corrupted firmware or a faulty mainboard.
GossTech process / repair: Check for overheating, replace weak capacitors, test power rail voltages, reflash or re-install firmware, or replace the mainboard if needed.
8. Remote control not working (but TV OK)
Diagnosis: Dead batteries, IR receiver failure, or remote pairing issues (for Smart TVs).
GossTech process / repair: Replace batteries, test IR receiver with a camera, re-pair remotes and TVs, or replace remote/IR receiver modules.
9. Smart TV apps crashing or no internet connectivity
Diagnosis: Wi-Fi module fault, corrupted OS/firmware, DNS/network settings.
GossTech process / repair: Test network connection, reset network settings, update or re-install firmware/OS, and replace Wi-Fi modules when faulty. We also help set up optimal streaming settings.
10. Artefacts, pixelation or poor image quality on specific channels/inputs
Diagnosis: Weak signal, tuner failure, HDMI/AV port problem, or cable issues.
GossTech process / repair: Test with alternative input sources and cables, inspect and replace faulty input boards (HDMI/AV), repair coax/tuner input, and advise on signal boosters if external reception is poor.
11. TV stuck on logo or boot screen
Diagnosis: Corrupted firmware/firmware update failed, or mainboard fault.
GossTech process / repair: Re-flash firmware using manufacturer tools (or safe-mode recovery), replace mainboard if recovery is impossible.
12. Physical damage (cracked screen, water ingress)
Diagnosis: Panel physical damage or liquid damage to internal boards.
GossTech process / repair: For cracked panels we advise panel replacement (we supply quotes and OEM-equivalent panels). For liquid damage we perform full cleaning of boards, replace corroded components, and test thoroughly. We provide transparent cost-vs-replace guidance.
13. Power LED blinking (error code)
Diagnosis: Specific blink patterns indicate board faults (power board, T-Con, mainboard).
GossTech process / repair: Interpret blink code per model, trace the faulty board, and perform targeted repair or replacement.
14. Backlight bleeding, hotspots or uneven illumination
Diagnosis: Faulty LED strips, poor diffuser alignment, or panel wear.
GossTech process / repair: Replace LED strips and check diffuser assembly; sometimes panel replacement is required for severe issues.
15. HDMI ARC/eARC or CEC not working
Diagnosis: Firmware incompatibility, damaged HDMI ports, or CEC settings.
GossTech process /repair: Update firmware, test/replace HDMI ports, configure CEC/ARC settings and test with compatible sound systems.
