Now Bush may not be one of my favourite brands but I have to admit the IDLCD32TV16HD seems to do a rather good job of providing a reasonable picture and some decent sound for a "budget" tv. While newer tv's freeview have stopped working properly with the latest signal these seem to soldier on.
Because of the age of these sets I appreciate not many people would consider repairing them, yet if I point out that it has all the HD and scart you'll ever need, you might think again. These generally go wrong simply because of wear and tear of components, at an average repair cost of £60-£70 I think this a well worth repair especially in the current climate.
Please ring to make an appointment first should you wish to have yours repaired.

YouView is the latest smart technology to come to the TV world. Designed to compete against Sky and Virgin, this handy little recorder will let you pause and rewind live TV, record two channels at once, and watch programmes from 7 days ago.
So how is this different from what is already on the market?
Well to start with I should point out that it really isn't anything new in terms of technology. It's very much like the well-respected Humax HDR-FoxT2 series in its functions yet it can do everyt... Continue reading...

Even though Goodmans isn't what it once was, an actual company, and now more of a badge, some of their tvs to come out in the last 5 years are still worth saving.
The GTVL32W17HDF & GTVL32W27HDF models are good examples of this.
Good looking, slim, and HD Ready, these can still punch above their weight in sound and picture quality. An added bonus is that it has 2 scart ports compared to the usual 1 (or 0) you get in new "Smart" TVs, handy for that old VCR or DVD Player you may still like to u... Continue reading...

There is a known fault with the Toshiba 32C3030D / 32C3030DB series where the Inbuilt Freeview can suddenly stop working. It will lose both sound and picture and if you press menu then the menu screen only briefly appears. You may find that external sources (e.g. DVD player) will work perfectly fine.
We now have a permanent fix for this and can have it repaired on the day it is brought into the shop. The charge of the repair should be under £50, and in my view, a worth-while fix as the Toshib... Continue reading...

Within the last couple of months we have seen an increase in the Samsung A55 model versions coming in for repair. This includes the LE40A557P2FXXU and LE40A559P4FXXU. They appear to have a similar power supply issue to the older LE40R88BDXXEU and LE40R87BDXXEU models but currently we can repair them slightly cheaper and due to components required.
If you have a Samsung LE40A557P2, LEA559P4F or a similar model and it is taking longer to turn on, turns itself off or refuses to turn on at all (p... Continue reading...

We have recently had an increase of faulty LG LCD TVs, and although rarely the same problem, we have noticed that the LG LG7000 series, most notably the LG 32LG7000ZA, there is an issue where the picture can switch off at random intervals yet the sound remains perfectly fine.
Although this usually suggests faulty components, it can just be a case that the TV just needs a good servicing. This service could cost as little as £30+VAT so please consider having it repaired before letting it end up...
