Yeah, just out of warranty unfortunately
Oof, I'm used to two as a minimum. (Looked it up, it's by law)

Thanks
This is long in the past so I'm not coming at you but for others reading this, most credit cards give you an extra year warranty on top of manufacturers.
Oh damn, probably I could have claimed that then. Thanks for the tip!
Yeah but it the scheme of life you're not out much.
I used to repair/rebuild TVs as part of my side hustle and I can absolutely confirm Hisense are the worst for parts, and no they don't sell them! But also think about it... they're shit products and the capacitors on the inverters burst constantly. You'd get another year before the replacement went byebye so really? Some products you just want out of your life. If it helps you feel better.
Hisense are just disposable TVs. It's hard for me to accept that's how ridiculous it's gotten with the churn of tech and gadgets.
Holy moly the stories I could tell you about how repair un-friendly they purposely make TVs... but I don't want to get myself all wound up lol
