Hello, this is my first post just looking for some advice please. After reading another topic here I decided I'd see what any of you guys think regarding my issue.
So my Samsung plasma (PS50C6500) decided to stop working the other day, it boots up, screen flickers and the startup sound can be heard, the screen then goes completely blank. The TV still responds to input from the remote as the light flashes when pressing buttons however no actual TV sound can be heard.
I had a local repair shop take a look at this and they said it was a "main pcb" problem and quoted me £530 to fix it. I have zero experience with messing around with TV's but surely this is over the top? I mean I found this site which offers parts www.bixreclamation.co.uk but if whether or not its actually for my TV and what I need.
I can provide more info if requested later as they're dropping my TV off, figured I'd take it back and recycle it rather than them selling parts on. I'll be sure to ask for a more detailed response as to what exactly has gone as well.
