Has anyone had to replace the screen on this TV? Mine suffered an impact of some sort when a family member trip and an item in his hands hit the screen.

Yes, my local contracted service center did a great job. It was very expensive though. At this point, a new TV is probably less expensive.

That is correct, however on mine I thought this was the case, but after replacing the glass I did note that the lcd had a bad spot that I was unable to notice before I swapped the glass out, so if it is smashed and you are not sure, the lcd may have a bad spot under the glass that you can not see. I thought this kit was great, cheap and fairly easy to replace, in my case I am fine with a bad pixel or two and am quite happy with the end result, If you are unsure if the lcd is perfect, you may end up with a bad pixel you didn't know you had, just so you know :) Good luck!

I replaced mine. It's not a good tv. especially the sound. My picture quit working after 4 months. It was replaced quickly. service was ok, but not a good tv.

My Pilot delivery guys insisted on opening the box and taking the TV out to make sure it was in good shape. I would have asked for it if they hadn't offered first. I can't believe they left your house without being sure.For the future, NEVER accept delivery of anything until you have inspected it for damages. Anything!

Hey there, I just had this same thing happen to my camera!!! The camera was not dropped or anything and it seemed to just appear out of the blue. One minute I am taking pictures and it looked fine, then I look down and the screen internally is cracked, the outside of the LCD does not have a scatch on it. I am about to send it off to Olympus to get a warrentyl repair, but could use any other instances of this happening as evidence that this is not my fault. Please let me know what you were able to get done.Thanks,Nick

Wow, that's odd. I didn't have that problem so I never tried anything different but in your case I guess it's worth a shot. See how it turns out. Wouldn't do it alone though, I think I'd have a friend help, don't want that TV to end up in pieces on the floor if it doesn't work out right.........Good luck!

Mine did the same thing before it quit turning on completely. There's a part inside that is failing, and unless you are still under warranty it will cost more to fix it than it will to buy a new one. I ended up having to buy a new, different tv. I wish you luck but unfortunately you are probably going to need to purchase a new tv.

Mine just went out today. I purchased it in the beginning of November. Trying to decide if I should see if Amazon will refund me and buy a different TV or just get it replaced by Vizio. I'm a little worried about the longevity, since it went out so quickly and others are experiencing the same problem.Loved the TV until it picture went out on me. I still have a 32" Vizio that's about 6 years old running strong.

You could replace the screen yourself that is if the digitizer is not broken.I tried to do just that (very tedious thing to do) and was not successful,ended up buying the whole unit Screen and digitizer fully assembled and easier to install. Look for installation video on youtube. Good luck.

Ours was having the same problem and the screen was not responding where the port was. We contacted the amazon seller and they immediately sent us a new one, and a pre paid box to send it back in if I remember right. I'd contact the seller. It comes with a 1 year warranty.

Hey, I had the same problem with an LN55C650 and even with a new panel it did it. So the tech got on the phone and called and was told about the service bulletin and cut jumper number p854 on the 55" and that fixed it. So the new panel came back out but I got my tv fixed. Yay!!!

In most cases the lcd has to be replaced too ... I had to send my digitizer screen back and be refunded. What you'll probably need is the lcd with digitizer connected.

Called Samsung but they weren't helpful....without an extended warranty, I'm out of luck. Only bright spot: It hasn't gotten worse. Now we're in the habit of turning on the TV, leaving for half an hour, and then coming back to it. It usually resolves by then...usually. But it's a big pain. Definitely never buying another Samsung. Let me know if you hear anything.

Oh my gosh, that is EXACTLY the same problem we are having. It started maybe 4-6 months out of warranty. I am SO mad about t his. We are out of warranty and took it to a TV repairman, he said he couldn't fix it because they don't make just the part that is needed. We would basically need to replace the whole LCD at that point and that wouldn't be worth it. (cost me $75 for the assessment too!) I am going to call Samsung tonight but I am not hoping for much.

I called Sharp and the factory warranty does not cover the screen for some reason so I purchased a 5 year extended one for 600 bucks that does cover the screen and everything else and I checked with a local TV shop I trust and they service the warranty I purchased and said they had never had a problem with them so I bought the TV! It's pretty awesome and I got it and the warranty for $8500.00

I would say NO. I am skilled/handy man and my attempt to replace screen failed. further investigation has revealed some tech experts have also failed. Mt suggestion, see U tube then send pay a repair shop.
