Hello,
a few days ago lightning struck near my house, I saw a spark in the house and heard a loud noise.
The lights didn't go out but the TV turned off (and won't turn back on), the box and the satellite dish were also affected...
the issue with the box and the satellite dish is resolved but the TV is a different story!!!

It won't turn on at all, no indicator light or anything, do you think there will be a lot of damage???
I don't have home insurance but it's still under warranty...

Please help me, thank you!

    Generally, I unplug when there’s lightning, but this only lasted a few minutes... I didn’t have time to unplug my plugs...
    Do you think the repairman will know that lightning is the cause if I don’t tell him?

      There is a good chance yes..

      It's like when liquid is spilled or something, it becomes noticeable quite quickly.
