Comment on this thing look burned to you?
glitching@lemmy.ml 2 weeks agogot this thing almost free so I’m taking my time. can’t afford to call a repairdude so I’m looking into learning how to fix it. had success with a previous find, replaced a coupla caps for backlight and got an awesome TV for less than $2.
so step 1, look for obviously busted caps and burned out shit and this post is to that end. if that fails, I’m on to step 2, determine if this can be repaired at all; like, if it’s the panel, give up right there. maybe learn something for the next one. and on and on.

If that’s the case, I’d replace the fuse at least if you can get one cheap. Good luck sourcing that cap though, probably looking at finding one with compatible specs instead of the exact part and if you choose right that’s probably fine. I hate doing this kind of work, so probably better people to talk to, but from what I can see and if I had to fix it, I’d replace the fuse and then see how I feel.
