    Hi folks,
    I have a 32" Bush lcd with a black screen.Its about 5 years old.
    When I turn it on one side of briefly flashes grey and then the whole screen turns black.

    From what I've researched its possibly an inverter or capacitor issue.
    Don't mind having a go at the repair myself,but would like to know if its worth repairing.
    How much would a repair shop charge to fix?

    Any ideas before I spend money on it or is it fit for the skip?

    Thanks.

    If it was me I would be looking at getting a new tv. Some of the bigger retailers have sales on at the moment, and there are bargains to be had. Plus with a new tv you will get a guarantee with it.

    However, you may be able to get the manufacturer to repair the tv for free. You have consumer rights in this case, goods should be of merchantable quality and fit for purpose. I'd expect a tv to last more than 5 years. You should contact the retailer you bought it from.
