My t.v screen has cracked in the corner. The T.V is still working, does anyone know how to replace it and where i could buy a replacement from.

It's economically not viable to replace a TV screen these days and finding one will be next to impossible. Best bet is to buy a new TV but I would wait until the old one completely packs up. Just make sure you don't get liquid onto the screen in the meantime.

It'd be too expensive to replace it, might as well buy a new one.
Also, DO NOT EVER OPEN A T.V., EVEN AN OLD ONE THAT HAS BEEN UNPLUGGED FOR A LONG TIME!
There's a big capacitor inside every T.V., and the electric discharge (which is still there even after decades of no use and no outlet) has enough amperage to stop your heart. Dozens of kids die every year because of it...

Depends on how old it is - might not be economical to replace just the screen - TV's are cheap enough nowadays - by the time you had found a replacement - the labour charge to fit it would make it too expensive - it's not something you can do yourself

If the TV is still working as in you can still watch it, then you shouldn't consider swapping a screen. If it's completely broken, you should go to your retailer, if it's still under warranty, and ask for a quote for repair. It probably won't be economical, so I would consider a new TV.
