Mend Toshiba 33in Much Should Looking

How much should I be looking to pay to sort out a Scart problem?

I have a Toshiba 33in TV (about 8 years old). It's huge and would be really difficult to dismantle and get in my car.
There are 3 scart inputs - 1 works fine. However on Scart 3 the sound has gone, and on Scart 2 the picture has gone funny - very dark and colour is intense. I think this happened when I plugged my X box into my scart 5 to 1 adapter at the same time my sattelite receiver was plugged into it.
I am in Northwest London and need to get someone round to fix this. Can anyone give me a ball park figure as to how much this should cost to fix, and is it an easy job.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

just a thought have you had a look in the setup menu as to what input is selected for scart two?

it sounds as if you may have broken the pins away from the pcb if you can solder it is quiet an easy job for other causes try www.e-repair.co.uk

Yes, I've tried swapping the leads around - all my xbox / cable etc work when they are plugged into scart1 but the picture problem manifests itself when anything is plugged into scart 2
