Screen Broken I have the tv in an RV I pull behind my truck. I think something hit it inside. When I turn it on it looks like a window that has been broken but hasn't fallen apart yet. I guess another way to explain it is splintered. Is it cost effective to have repaired? A new one is about $700.00. Looking for an opinion and a little education before going to a repair shop. Thanks

maybe the screen is not broken but the circuitry behind it is
take it in for a repair quote

your screen is broken this tv has a clear acrylic screen over theLCD screen.

has anyone had this problem? I was watching my sharp Aquos tv and all of a sudden I see a black line, then fuzzzy then black screen then a loud pop, now it looks like colors that sprawl out as if something exploded in one spot inside the screen and it looks like the inside screen is cracked. but nothing hit the tv. it just happend. the sharp people tell me that it cant be fixed or replaced. and they keep telling me i hit the tv! From 5 feet back??? I was watching it. he says..did you see anything strike the tv?? I was like, I am going to ignore that rediculous question because I was on my couch..and no one was in the room! he says the only way that happens is if someone hit it! OMG! i have only had this tv for 3 months and paid $2000 for it. why would I HIT my TV!! no one will help me. I have a master plan warranty on it aswell. they wont help me.

Ur tv have a broken LCD screen panel.Not worth fixing,because the LCD screen panels are limited produced,will cost the same as a new tv,if replaced.Only can buy the LCD screen panels from the tv corporations.Sorry,worth as a whole tv any more.Now ur tv,only worth as salvage for eclectronic boards.

This is an LCD screen and they probably damaged the panel itself. So I would sell the tv for parts on ebay or craigslist and recoup some of the lose as all the other parts are still good and someone out there will have the same tv with something else broken. Use that money to buy a new tv. That is why I like old tube tv's. Takes a lot more then a toy hitting the screen to take them out.
Good luck,

You are most likely better off buying a new TV. You will need a replacement screen to fix the broken one but the cost of this can be almost as costly as a new TV so it is not economical

Hello Compgeek09,
It appears that one of the CCFL lights might have broken behind the screen and that is why the TV would turn on for 1 second and goes off after.
The noise you are hearing could peaces of shattered or broken light and you would have to remove the screen and to be able to fix it, if you are up for the challenge.
Let me know if you required further assistance.

You have broken the LCd panel. The cost of replacing the panel is more than replacing the TV. Get a new TV

cant have leaked it has three bulbs behind the screen if she hit it hard it would have crack or shatteres the inside of the screen and the particals look funny

well, the best advise i can give you is that for some reason, i think its a flaw inside all aiptek's products....mine does the same. i hate to inform you, but i dont think its going to work at all on a television
