Water is the enemy of electrical appliances, and television is no exception. Moisture getting on the internal elements of the circuit can cause serious damage.
If water gets on the TV
Modern models of plasma panels are sensitive to moisture. Important elements, tracks and connections, are located on the bottom line of the case, and drops of liquid, draining, disrupt the normal operation of the device. The master can reanimate the technique in case of minor damage, therefore it is very important when moisture gets inside the case to deliver it to the service shop as soon as possible.
What danger can this carry?
Liquid entering the LCD TV can cause the following problems:
- spots on the screen that cannot be removed by simple wiping (with a large amount of moisture, the spots acquire an ink tint);
- blurred image;
- dots, ripples, multi-colored stripes on the screen;
- spontaneous inclusion, shutdown of the device.
What to do
Only the master can accurately determine how to fix interference in the work caused by the ingress of liquid under the body.
If moisture has formed on the board, the master solders the damaged circuit.
Attention! In case of damage to the matrix controllers, the specialist solders the copper conductors. In the event of complete destruction of the controllers, they are replaced.
If water destroyed the conductors, the repair involves a complete replacement of the matrix. Most often, in this situation, it is financially more profitable to purchase a new device.
Can I use a TV
Regardless of the way the liquid was spilled inside (the case was wiped, the screen was wetted or the liquid was accidentally spilled) remember: the TV must be disconnected from the power supply as soon as possible and not used until the problem is fixed.
To avoid a short circuit, it is important that all damaged elements dry out well (there is not a drop of liquid left inside). The drying process takes an average of three days. You can speed up the process if you install the device on a loggia in the sun.
Attention! If moisture has got into the working TV, it is strictly forbidden to take the cord with bare, wet hands or wipe the water without disconnecting the device. Ignoring this rule, there are great risks of electric shock.
If smoke enters from under the enclosure when water gets inside the appliance, do not even try to turn it on again after drying. Only the master of the service center can help reanimate the equipment affected by water.
