    LG 42LN5700 stuck on lg logo

    Found this TV on the curb. It's in beautiful shape but can't figure out it's issue.

    I read somewhere that baking the main board at 385deg for 10 min fixes the issue I'm having.
    But it did not fix the issue. I called LG and they're no help at all.

    I've tried baking the main board for 10 min at 385deg
    I've tried unplugging the TV for 5 min
    I've tried unplugging the TV and holding the power button while it's unplugged to drain caps


    I looked inside no visiable blown caps and all fuses are testing good.

    Anyone have a clue on what it could be? There's only 4 boards in the TV two big and two little.

    The power board looks fine. Main board looks fine and the WiFi card looks good, and there's the Yvonne board I think it's called . All looks fine.

    Anyone have any ideas? I'd post pictures but I think a video would benefit more so I'm going to take one now and post it .

    Thanks for the help. I seen lots of fixed tv's come from this forum. I hope mine is one of them

    I found a main board for $60 on eBay I'm thinking of ordering. If I do do you think it may solve the issue?

      Most likely, it's the main board. It's the most common issue when TVs appear to be stuck on some screen or freeze/lock up. One trick I've found sometimes helps is to gently heat up the flash memory chip - this part gets corrupted, causing the fault - heating it up seems to temporarily allow the data to be extracted correctly, enough for the TV to boot up.

              I have repaired many of these tv's and yes it is the main board.

                Does this look like a main board issue on this same model LG?

                  Yes. Do you see trhis same image every time you power up the tv? What happens when you change inputs or press the menu button? Any movement of the purple bars?

                  Did I leave the soldering iron on?
