    Very quick LG Plasma question

    Hi all,

    My first post here and I just have a very very quick question.

    Is it normal for an 2 year old LG 50" plasma to take 20 secs to switch on?
    I've read on one forum that it is normal for any plasma to be about 20-30sec.

    Main reason im asking is that it had the usual clicking issue where it wouldnt power up. So I replaced the resistor, voltage reg & diode and I finally got the picture back Previously it took about 4secs to come on now since the repair its 15-20sec.

    Any reason for this? or anything I could have done??

    (I know I should just be happy it switches on at all haha, just curious)

    Thanks in advance!

    Could be cap issue. See if heating up caps with hairdryer makes set turn on quicker. Most LG I have seen boot in under 5 seconds.

      thanks for your quick reply!

      Im guessing you just mean heating up all the caps on the powerboard yeah?

            It may not be an issue then. I would wait and see if it gets worse.

              All the caps visually look ok so will just leave it and see how it goes.
              thanks for the replies
