LCD backlight repair for LG flat screen telly

[tamada]

Looks like the backlight has gone out on the big telly in the lounge. Does anyone know of any of those hole-in-the-wall television repair shops who can replace this? It's a 43" LG, probably less than 5 years old.

I see backlights for sale on lazada and the like and I have changed them out on laptops myself but just looking for a repair shop that maybe can do the biz for me instead.

I appreciate the cost will probably be higher at a 'proper' shop, but unless it's closed or relocated,there was a bona-fide LG service centre between Big C and Makro. I had to have my large LG tv repaired there, quite soon after purchase.

Thanks Brian will keep that in mind for the future repairs

What is it with LG TV's in this country? I have bought 2, different models, and both failed to turn on after 2-3 years of use (the power button lights up but nothing happens).

All my other brands Samsung, Sony just keep on going. Not buying another LG TV again.
