Cracked look on tv after object thrown into it

My son threw the remote at the Plasma and it now has a cracked look and a group of different colored lines up the middle, can I fix this before hubby gets home?

    thank you rockitman I guess I knew that but was hoping for a miracle!! Do you think it is covered under the warranty?

  • marionbagget May 11, 2010

    Crack/broken TV screens are not covered under warranty. You can sell the TV for parts.(eBay, internet, etc)
    Since you will probably keep the baseball pitcher, you should get a shield for the next TV. There are several companies selling them. Here is one.

    Probably not,But the warranty may reduce the cost of repairs, Depends on the fine print in the warranty, but I doubt it will help at all. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

CRACK LCD TV SCREEN

I had one broken a few months ago. I got a couple quotes.. it was about $200 less then a brand new one. I'd just buy a new one.
For the new TV I'd pickup a screen protector for it. My son threw a toy at my TV the other day and I nearly had a heart attack from the flashbacks. Thank God I picked up one of these a few weeks earlier. It stopped it. LCD screens really break easily as you know. http://www.tv-armor.com

CRACK LCD TV SCREEN

The LCD panel will have to be replaced. Contact a Philips service agent for cost.

The cost of a replacement screen will probably outweigh the cost of a replacement TV.

If you have household insurance, it should cover accidental damage.

Cracked screen

You can have them repaired but, usually the cost of a new plasma panel exceeds the cost of replacing the set.
