Finding the True Cost of Repairing an LCD

 
Although LCDs are common nowadays, they were created after decades of research by scientists and researchers. The technology of Liquid Crystal Display was first born in the laboratories of Liquid Crystal Institute that was established in 1965.

Researches related to LCDs are still done nowadays, but they are of a more advanced nature. For instance, some Belgian researchers are busy integrating LCD technology with contact lenses. Although the project is still in its infancy stage, these contact lenses are believed to be the future entertainment option and may even find applications in medical sciences.

At present, LCD technology is present in our mobile phones, television sets, PCs, laptops and even digital wrist watches. Although it can be found in most of the devices that we use on a daily basis, LCD is still not an inexpensive technology. If your LCD monitor or television is malfunctioning, then buying a new one will surely cost you your savings, so it is wise that you repair or replace the malfunctioning parts of an LCD.

Here, we have shed some light on the LCD parts that you can purchase and replace yourself in order to reduce your LCD repair cost.
 

Cost of a Power Board

When will you require a power board for your LCD? The answer is, when your LCD monitor or LCD TV is unable to switch on. Although most ignorant people will toss their LCD monitors into the trash but you shouldn’t make the same mistake. Instead, buy a power board that will cost you $20 – $50 depending upon the model of your LCD, replace it and bring your dead LCD back to life.
 

Cost of an LCD Screen

When will you buy an LCD screen? Well, this one’s obvious, when the display screen of your laptop or PC is cracked or broken. Most people will search for a new laptop but if the display screen of your laptop is broken, then you can simply replace it and it’ll cost you less than 100 bucks. That’s right. The starting price of a fresh screen of an LCD monitor is about $50 and can climb up to $100 depending upon the model of your monitor/laptop and the size of the screen.
 

Cost of LCD Inverter Boards

If the LCD screen of your laptop or monitor has lost its brightness, then it’s a sign that you should purchase a new inverter board and replace it with the old one. The starting price of an inverter board is just 5 bucks and can go up to 20 dollars. But if replacing the inverter board doesn’t solve the problem, it means that the CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) needs to be replaced. You can easily purchase it online for less than 10 bucks.

Note that in the above article we have provided just the price of the component that needs to be replaced.
