My daughter accidentally threw the wii remote into the tv screen. It seemed to have cracked the screen on the inside. All of the colors appeared as though they were streaking down the screen and then the entire screen became black. It is a LC HD tV. Canit be repaired?

You can have them repaired using a TV Repair guy but often it costs as much as a brand new plasma. My daughter broke my $1,600 LCD. It would have cost $1,200 to fix.. so I just bought a new one.After that I picked up a TV screen protector called TV Armor http://www.tv-armor.com Its designed to protect the TV from damage. Now I dont have to worry anymore when she is playing near it. It works really well.

If this is a plasma set (I don't have a parts listing for a 42px5d), then the panel needs to be replaced. It can not be repaired. The panel will likely cost almost as much as a replacement set. Check with a local servicer for the parts cost BEFORE you request an estimate. They should be able to give you a parts cost without you incurring an estimate fee.

Based upon that info, determine whether or not to repair the set.
