I bought this television about two years ago and I have to say it's served me quite well. Great picture quality albeit it's a little stretched and un-proportionate. Yes, it's been working great.
...Until NOW. For some reason it doesn't display anything anymore. I just came home yesterday night to find this; I can hear the sound perfectly and what not but I can't see anything. When I say I can't see anything, I mean I literally cannot see anything on the screen, including menu options or anything. It's just a plain black screen. The only way I could see something was by shining a flashlight onto the screen in which I could see tiny patches that the light illuminated.
When I called Customer Service and Support, they pretty much told me that "there was something wrong with the TV" and that if I didn't have a receipt to show I purchased it within the year, that I was not covered under their warranty and prices for repair could range from $100 and up. Not exactly my cup of tea.
The unit itself seems to be working fine; I can hear the audio perfectly and no cables have been altered.
Any suggestions on how I can solve this problem, if at all?
Right off of the back of the unit, the Model No. is LG 42LB4DS (LG 42LB4DS - UA) and Serial No. is 711MXHB2Z241.
Thanks in advance.
