Panasonic 27"color TV is now black and white
I have a Panasonic 27" TV CT27G14A. Manufactured, purchased 1999 and
never had a problem until my last move. TV now appears in black and white. I called some local shops trying to get a quote on how much repairing this would cost and got an assortment of quotes varying from $90 to $130 to start (for evaluation), parts additional. Anyone know what the problem might be and how much it might cost to repair? Any insight is appreciated, thankx in advance. |

Moving it around revealed (or caused) bad solder joint(s) in the color processing circuits. |

That set is known for dry joint on the crystal.

Do you know how much this would be to repair? would this be just labor charges? or maybe a board has to be replaced? or is it not worth the effort? Thanks again for the input! |

Should be just a labor charge, I would guess under $100. Certainly not a board replacement, good techs rarely ever do that. |

Other than Zenith warranty stuff, the one memorable time I had to resort to that was with a supposedly under warranty Thomson TX that had been urinated in,,,ugh! Tom |
