We are an independent service workshop/repair business that are not affiliated to the manufacturer of the electronics repaired here. That means we do not have access to the circuit diagrams or any other official documentation from the manufacturers. This in turn means our techs have to use previous experience and in-depth research to arrive at a solution. A viable repair solution is only possible if model-specific spares are available and the total cost does not exceed the value of the device. Success is achieved in many cases but not always, and for this reason we can never give any guarantee that the fault will be fixed. If you do not want to take a chance with a repair, our recommendation is that you buy a completely new or replacement unit.
