How GossTech diagnoses Vitron TVs — step-by-step
- Initial intake & history: We record symptoms, model number, and recent events (lightning, power surge, etc.).
- Visual inspection: Check for burnt components, swollen capacitors, loose connectors, water damage, or physical panel cracks.
- Power verification: Measure standby and main rails with a multimeter and oscilloscope where necessary.
- Component testing: Test capacitors (ESR), diodes, transformers, and regulators on the power board.
- Panel/backlight checks: Perform backlight tests (flashlight method and LED driver verification) and test T-con signals.
- Signal & input checks: Verify HDMI, USB, tuner inputs and test with known-good sources.
- Firmware & software: Check for software corruption and apply firmware updates or factory resets.
- Functional test: Rebuild the TV, run burn-in test, and verify that the fault is cleared before handing back.
All diagnostics are documented and we provide a transparent quote. No repair proceeds without customer approval.
Typical repair workflow & warranties
- Quote & approval: After diagnosis we provide a written quote (parts & labour). You approve before we begin.
- Parts sourcing: We use original-equivalent parts where possible and inform you of OEM availability and lead time.
- Repair & test: Repairs are done on ESD-safe benches. After repair we run 24–72 hours of functional testing depending on the job.
- Warranty: GossTech provides a parts & labour warranty on repairs (warranty length depends on the part—usually 3–6 months). Warranty terms are supplied with the invoice.

Preventive maintenance tips for Vitron TV owners
- Use a surge protector or voltage stabilizer, especially in areas with frequent power fluctuations.
- Avoid placing TVs in direct sunlight to reduce panel stress and overheating.
- Keep vents clear and dust-free — a soft vacuum or canned air once every 3–6 months helps.
- Update Smart TV firmware when manufacturers release official updates.
- When moving a TV, handle the screen carefully and transport in an upright position.
