How Refitec Diagnoses TV Faults
We don’t guess — we use a systematic process:
- Visual inspection — checking for burnt components, cracked panels, physical damage
- Power-on test — checking voltage levels across the power supply board
- Board-level diagnostics — testing the main board, T-CON, inverter, and backlight circuits
- Software check — scanning for firmware errors or corrupted boot data
- Component testing — using multimeters and oscilloscopes to pinpoint faulty parts
- Customer report — we explain exactly what’s wrong in plain language before we touch anything
No hidden surprises. You approve the repair before we start.

Tips to Prevent TV Problems
A few simple habits can extend your TV’s life:
- Use a surge protector — power surges are the #1 cause of blown TV boards in Nairobi.
- Keep it ventilated — don’t block the vents at the back or sides.
- Avoid direct sunlight — UV and heat damage screens and housings over time.
- Dust regularly — dust buildup inside causes overheating.
- Don’t leave it on standby for months — if you’re travelling, switch it off at the wall.
- Handle remotes carefully — a cracked remote often causes people to use sharp objects on the TV, damaging ports.
- Update firmware — smart TV software updates fix bugs and improve stability.
- Avoid unverified HDMI cables — poor-quality cables can damage HDMI ports.
