The best approach is to go to a university or college and enrol in to
an electro technology coarse. Usually this is a 3 to 4 year training
program starting in basic electronics, physics, and math. After this,
you can then go on to a specialization. With an electro technology
degree, you can also go on to electrical engineering. From there, you
will find many possibilities.

A sort of shortcut way, is to take a one or two year training coarse in
TV and appliance servicing through a trade school. These devices are
very sophisticated, and without a solid basic electronics background,
you would really only be able to grasp things at a very basic level. In
this case, your service capability would be more procedural, rather
than in a detailed analytic manner.

To study electronics, it takes a lot of time and devotion. There is a
lot of math, basic physics, some statistics, and some logistics
envolved as well. I would not think you would want to get an
electronics degree of some type, just to be able to service your own
home appliances!
