TCL TV Backlight Went Out

Jump to solution

I’ve only had my TCL roku tv for a year and a half and all of the sudden the backlight seemed to go out and I can barely see anything at all on the tv 🙄 I’m so disappointed!

TCL won't do anything since it's the 1-year limited warranty has expired. TCL makes terrible products.

I had my 65" TLC Roku TV about a year and a half and the back light seems to have gone out .
Terrible product , no customer service . They are manufactured to be disposable .

This is why it's a good idea to buy TVs from Costco.  They have great warranties beyond the laughable manufacturers' warranties. 

I made two mistakes with my most recent TV purchase.  I didn't buy it from Costco and I bought a TCL Roku tv.  Next TV I buy will be from Costco and will not be a TCL.  If I had to do it again today I'd buy an LG or a Sony from Costco, not a TCL from Amazon.
