Question by alan m: broken tv screen (40 inch hd widescreen lcd samsung)?
My friend put a large crack on my 40 inch lcd tv, it cost 800 and the home insurance is covering a replacement. I have to pay 250 pounds excess, well my friend does.
I am allowed to keep the old 1 but is it worth while getting it repaired? I was told it would be around 350 to get it repaired but is there anyway I could get it fixed on the cheap? Or could the parts be sold as it is only the screen damaged?

If it is a 40″ set, I assume it is a projection type and the screen is broken. Only way to be done cheaper is to get the screen assembly yourself and replace it on your own. That can be tricky though. If it is just the screen I would have it repaired if I couldn’t afford the exceess money. The electronics probably are ok, IF IT IS a cracked screen.

Question by Jim: Can I trade in a broken 40 inch lcd hdtv somewhere for a rebate or something?
My tv got broken (wont get into details) but it needs a new panel which they told me would cost over 800 which is more then the actual price i paid for the tv. So it is sitting uselessly in my room. Can i trade it in somewhere to get a rebate for another tv or something?

Your best bet is to list it on craigslist.org or ebay for parts. List the brand name and the exact model number. If the screen is destroyed and that’s why it’s dead, that means that all the other parts are probably good. Flat panel TVs have a high failure rate for power supplies and boards, they are very sought after. I’m sure someone has the same TV and needs parts. Wherever you list it, make it very clear why the panel is bad so that buyers can judge what might still be useful.

Question by maleahxiong: How can you replace a broken LCD screen in a Sylvania LC427SSX 42-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV?
My sister in law left a broken Sylvania LC427SSX 42-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV. I looked online but I can’t seem to find any place where I can find just the screen for replacement. Does anyone know where I can buy just the screen or how to fix it?

Even if you could find one the cost of the screen will probably be little less than buying new TV. And if you replace it yourself you are running a risk of damaging some other component or part. The cost of having it done professionally is not worth it as it is cheaper to buy an better new one.

Sorry.
