what is the industry standard for dead pixels for an LCD to be replaced?

Answer 1

Usually 3 dead pixels are needed. It depends on location as well. If they are on the outer edges its less likely to be replaced.

Answer 2

There is no industry standard. It depends on what the company that made the LCD decides. It's their standard.

Most companies, however, will test their monitors for dead pixels prior to releasing them for sale.

So your best bet would be to check your warranty to see if it's still good and then contact the company that made your monitor to find out their policy for dead pixels in LCDs.

Answer 3

If your new TV has a 'stuck' pixel, the store you bought it at will replace it. Hope you have a warranty. I don't know if you knew, but there is no way to fix a 'stuck' pixel.

I don't think 3 dead pixels are needed...My mom's had a dead pixel that was bright green and Best Buy replaced it...

Answer 4

It varies from three to five dead pixels depending on manufacturer & dealer.

There is a software program available that will "exercise" the pixels and sometimes revives them. Go here to see about it - http://www.widowpc.com/2005/08/fix_dead_pixels.php

The program is free and they say works about 60% of the time. It worked on two out of two pixels for me.

Answer 5

depends on the manufacturer - some go as high as an area the size of a dime that is not on the edges
