Hey guys,
a while ago my LG 39LN5758 started performing random reboots while I was watching something.
It started during phases when the volume was set to higher level / the movie had a very loud sequence. The TV would suddenly go off and then reboot.
After this event, it returned to nominal functionaltiy.
But now - a few months later - sometimes the TV sometimes is in a loop, performing dozens of reboots before eventually reaching a somewhat stable operation.

I have no formal training in electronics, circuits, etc. Everything I know, which isn't much, has been learned from watching youtube videos, reading books, forums, etc. This means, sometimes I have a hard time understanding and interpreting what's important when I look at datasheets, and such.

I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.
So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...01-06-2025, 06:02 AM -
