    LG 52LG50 will not turn off

    Hey guys,
    I have a 52 inch LG , model 52LG50 that does not want to stay off. As soon as I plug in AC it turns on. If I attempt to turn it off either by remote or by pressing the button on the TV, it turns off, then immediately back on. I have replaced the small black board seen in the photos that houses the power button. I do not see any blown caps. I've taken a look at the system board and can see no obvious problems.

    Ideas?
    Thanks a ton.

    Can you try without that connector going to the button board? I know you replaced the board, but if it's a capacitive sense board (touch sensitive) something contaminated in there (flake of metal or so on) could be triggering it.

          well I reconnected that harness after the tv stayed off and now it is still staying off...previously I had removed the main board and scratched off some random dried board goo(technical term) so not sure what did it, but the TV stays off now.

            I suspect you've moved the board slightly when you did that so it's not picking up erroneous button presses. See if it comes back. If not, enjoy your TV, otherwise take the board out and clean it and the casing in front of it.

              I had this problem and successfully repaired it on a friend's TV. Please see my writeup at:

                TCL 55S425 few horizontal lines, potential failure on both side of panel/buffer board
                by howardc64
                All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
                • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
                • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

                HP ENVY X360 15-EU0005NA 203037-2 does not turn on, something whistles on the board.

                Hello, HP laptop model 15-EU0005NA. It does not turn on, 1 in 100 manages to turn it on then after a while it freezes/disappears/flashes, etc.

                After removing the motherboard and connecting the board with RAM to the power supply, I noticed that at first all voltages start correctly and after a few seconds 3.3V on the PL4501 coil disappears and somewhere in this area something starts beeping on the board, sometimes after touching it with a finger in the area of PL4551 it stops beeping and 3.3V appears again.

                Original HP 150W power supply, the diode in the power socket lights...

                LG 55EC930V OLED - swich on swich of no screen
                by maxim2511
                My Oled Tv is 55inch tv, 3 days ago I notice that middle of the screen is getting warmer and on picture I have ghosting, missing red color. Color red was still displaying, but it was not so strong as corners of the screen and watching some movies makes me angry.
                Then I get an idea to take it apart and clean boards from dust.
                In side of Tv was not so bad, I take compressed air in can, and gently blow up.

                Also I was thinking to styrofoam sponge to isolate power board from screen that the middle of the screen will not worm so much. Because Led on screen when gets higher...

                Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                by Tynan Dill
                I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                Assuming...

                Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
                Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...
