I purchased a new budget TCL brand TV in September of 2018. In less than 2 months, the circuit board required to provide the TV's back-light died. While still covered under the manufacturer warranty, we no longer had our proof of purchase (lesson learned) to take that route and based on the feedback from the internet, it sounds like we dodged a bullet anyway. We traveled 30+ minutes to bring our TV down to Cardinal Electronic on a Tuesday, we handed over $25 diagnoses fee and left the TV with them over night. The next day, they contacted us to advise of the issue that occurred within the hardware and also the price of the part, along with their labor. We agreed to the fee, which was reasonable. It was a little under half the cost of the TV itself, which I expected given as it's a budget branded TV. We decided to proceed and the TV was functional the very next day. It looks just like it did when we opened it for the first time. They guarantee their service for 60 days after and they were great at communicating with us. It was a far sooner turnaround than I ever expected (as they had the part on-hand). Great service, although the labor could be hit and miss depending on if you believe your TV is worth saving. Ours was, but just barely.
Great service! I highly...

From the moment I called, I knew I was in good hands. The friendly lady who answered the phone quickly understood my situation and guided me through the process.
When I arrived at the shop, I was greeted by the owner, who personally helped me unload my TV. Despite noticing a few political signs around the shop (which made me wonder what I got myself into), I soon realized that customer satisfaction knows no political bounds.
After discussing the issues with my TV, the owner provided me with a turnaround time, which was met precisely. When I returned to pick up my TV, I was once again greeted warmly by the owner, who took me through the details of the service.
I was thoroughly impressed by Cardinal Electronics customer service and expertise. If you're in need of flat-screen TV repair and want to save some money, I highly recommend giving Cardinal Electronics a try. Thank you for...
Read moreRandy was so kind to take the time to look over the control panel of my washing machine. He tested what he could and asked me plenty of questions trying to troubleshoot the issue- but he admitted that his specialty was more electronics rather than appliances, and couldn’t confidently fix it for me. However, he continued to try to help- taking the time to search online and advise me about where I could purchase a used control board to replace the old one on my own.
WELL, Randy, it worked! I got the new used control panel in the mail today and the machine is washing again as I type this. You literally saved me hundreds of dollars on buying a new machine, paying for delivery, hauling the old one, etc. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for your help.
I will definitely be sending my friends and family your way with any broken computers or TV’s they may have. Your kindness and consideration is invaluable on top of your expertise with electronics....
