Television Repairs?
Can anyone recommend a decent TV Repair place, preferably in the Perpignan area or Agly Valley?
The HDTV's out of warranty and the pictures got a green tinge and reduced resolution. Typical start to the New Year!

This happened to us some while ago. Before going to the expense of a tv repair man look at the scart lead. If you have more than one scart socket on your tv plug the scar into another socket. If this doesnt work then try a different scart lead as you may have a broken wire in your existing lead, which was our problem. It also pays to buy a good quality scart lead as you will obtain a better picture and sound. Hope this works.

Diolch yn fawr iawn Dylan, I tried the SCART to no avail: The TV is rigged up via SCART, HDMI and Composite cables to Sky, DVD and a PC - no matter which input I select (i.e. which set of cables), the picture is still abysmal... boo hoo. And I so wanted to watch The Sound of Music in glorious technicolour.

There's one in Millas, Place de la Republique, but it may be a bit out of the way for you.vinogeek wrote:Can anyone recommend a decent TV Repair place, preferably in the Perpignan area or Agly Valley?

Auchan does a good service but I don't know if it's restricted to their own sales.

I believe that Darty will handle any television, whether it was bought there or not. Their people are quite competent and their price is similar to other TV guys.
