LG TV repair

LED, NanoCell, QNED and OLED TVs. TVs are different from other appliances: some faults are cheap to fix and some aren't worth it at all. We'll tell you which one you've got before you spend anything.

We're an independent repair company, not LG Electronics or an LG-authorised centre. If your TV is still under LG's manufacturer warranty, contact LG first.

Problems we fix

What usually goes wrong

These are the faults we see most on LG TVs, and what's normally behind them.

01

Sound but no picture

Very often the LED backlight strips have failed on LED and NanoCell models. Shine a torch at the screen: if you can faintly see the picture, it's the backlight.

02

Won't turn on, red light

Power supply board, main board, or a backlight fault causing a shutdown. The pattern of the red light helps narrow it down.

03

Keeps restarting

Stuck on the logo or rebooting every few minutes. Can be a software fault, a failing main board, or a power supply that can't hold.

04

Lines on the screen

Vertical or horizontal lines usually point to the panel itself, or its connecting cables. Sometimes fixable, often not.

05

Dark patches or uneven light

On LED models, one or more backlight LEDs have gone. The picture looks patchy or darker on one side.

06

No sound, or distorted sound

Speaker, audio amplifier on the main board, or a settings problem with a soundbar connection.

Before you call

Three checks worth doing first

None of these need tools. If they sort it out, great. If not, you've ruled out the simple stuff and we can get to the real fault faster.

  • Unplug it for a full minuteUnplug at the wall, hold the power button on the TV for 30 seconds, wait, then plug back in. It clears a lot of software freezes.
  • Try the torch testIf there's sound but a black screen, shine a phone torch close to the screen. A faint picture means backlight, which is usually repairable.
  • Check inputs and cablesIf only one source is black, like the receiver or console, swap the HDMI cable and port before assuming the TV's faulty.
Repair or replace?

We'll tell you if it's not worth fixing

Not every repair makes sense. This is roughly how we think about it, but the age of your TV and the price of the part always come into it.

Usually worth repairing

  • Backlight strips on LED / NanoCell
  • Power supply board
  • Main board, depending on price
  • Software and firmware faults

Often not worth it

Questions

Common questions

Anything else? Ask on WhatsApp.

Can you fix a cracked TV screen?

In practice, no. A replacement panel usually costs as much as a new TV, so we'll tell you honestly that it isn't worth it.

Do you repair TVs at home?

Backlight and board repairs can often be done at your home. Some jobs need the TV taken to a workbench. We'll tell you which before we start.

My OLED has a burnt-in image. Can that be fixed?

Burn-in is permanent damage to the panel. The TV's own pixel refresher can reduce light cases, but real burn-in needs a new panel.

Is your LG TV playing up?

Send the model number and a photo or video of the problem on WhatsApp, or just call. We cover Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman.
