My tv fell and now the screen is blank..only the sound is working..?

Question

Its an old tv..do u think it will be beyond repairs? the screen is totally blank..BUT THE SOUND IS PERFECT..

Answer 1

Happened to me...  got to get a new one.  They told me it would cost me less to buy a new one than to have the part replaced.

Answer 2

Um, it's broken.

You can probably repair it, but it usually costs almost as much as buying a new one.

Answer 3

buy a new one

Answer 4

I would first check to make sure that the brightness k**b didn't get turned all the way off. But if you can't get a pic after turning all the k***s I would say you should probably look into getting a new TV. That one probably won't work starting in Feb anyway. Go digital & eliminate having to get one of those converter boxes. Have a great day any way. Peace. Bluejay

Answer 5

girl we had the same problem with one of our TV bang it on the top and sides to see if it will come back if not .... go to a thrift store and get one for a great price!

Answer 6

Check the cables.

If they're in properly, bin it.

Answer 7

If is old t.v you either broke the picture tube or jarred it loose.  T.V's are pretty cheap I would go buy a new one.

Answer 8

well, i think is time to get a new one.

Answer 9

buy a new one. it will cost too much to fix.

Answer 10

The screen is nothing more than a big bulb (tube) that would probably cost more to fix than a whole new tv.  Sorry.

Answer 11

Agreed you broke the tube, buy a new one..

Answer 12

If it's an old tube TV, odds are repair is going to be 3x it's value Save some money, go LCD. Mount it to your wall to avoid future boo boo's. The audio and video hardware is completely seperate inside the tv. It's no shock to me you still have audio, the shock of the fall has broken something in the picture tube.
