How GossTech diagnoses Roku TV faults — step-by-step
GossTech follows a clear, repeatable diagnostic workflow so you always know what’s happening:
- Pre-check over phone — Ask model, serial, symptoms, recent events (power surge, drop) and advise immediate safe steps (unplug, don’t open the TV).
- On-site quick test — Technician performs visual inspection, power checks, and basic software troubleshooting.
- Full diagnostic (bench test) — If needed, we collect the TV or bring it to our workshop for component-level tests (power board, mainboard, T-Con, LED/backlight).
- Quote & approval — We explain the fault, list parts & labour, and provide a transparent quote before any repairs.
- Repair & quality test — Use genuine or equivalent quality parts; test for 24–72 hours to verify stability.
- Delivery & warranty — Return the TV with a written warranty on the replaced parts and labour.
Typical repair scenarios & timelines
(Examples — these give customers realistic expectations; actual times depend on spare parts availability.)
Fault type | Typical time to repair | Notes |
---|---|---|
Software issue / Firmware reflash | Same day – 1 day | Often resolved on-site or in workshop; no parts needed. |
Power board replacement | 1–3 days | Depends on part stock; in-house replacement is quick when parts available. |
Backlight / LED strip replacement | 2–5 days | Requires workshop; testing for uniform brightness post-repair. |
Mainboard replacement | 2–7 days | Sometimes requires ordering specific board; we source genuine or compatible boards. |
Panel replacement | 3–14 days | Panels are costly and availability varies; we advise based on age vs replacement cost. |
Pricing & transparency
GossTech believes in clear pricing. Every repair begins with a diagnostic fee (which may be waived if you approve the repairs). You’ll receive a written estimate before work begins. When available, we use genuine manufacturer parts or high-quality equivalents and we provide a parts + labour warranty.
(For an itemised quote for your specific model: call 0723613664 or email info@gosstech.co.ke. Provide TV brand, model number and a short description of the fault.)
