    LG 37lc2db no sound,HDMI not working,

    HI everyone i have been brousing the net to see if anybody has had the same problem as me with there LG tv,

    The problem i have with mine is as follows, No sound coming from the TV just a pop when the tv is switched on, the HDMI connection wont work anymore, the fuctions on the side of the TV dont work anymore and finally it takes an age for the TV to come on when switch on,

    can anybody tell me if i change the psu board this would cure the faults i have, is the Psu board also know as a pcb borad,

    Many thanks Shrek

    The 3.4V on the power supply often fails (low output) causing this. I have repaired this same model, UK version, which had no sound, intermittent power up failure, and Freeview (digital TV) / HDMI did not work.

      Re: LG 37lc2db no sound,HDMI not working,

      i stripped the TV down after getting a selcetion of capacitors, there were 3 witch were bulging at the top. 2 @ 3330uf 9v and 1 @ 1000uf 9v, I could only replace one of them that had blow out (1000uf @ 25v) i have got the sound back, but now the tv turns off intermitantly and not HDMI working,

      i will let you know how i get on when i get the 3330UF @ 25v,

      p.s is it ok to put a ltle higher voltage cap on, as i have read this in other posts i have seen

        Where did you buy the capacitor from?

            Unfortunately, capacitors from Maplins are almost never suitable for power supplies due to them not being low impedance; typically they're only general purpose.

            Other supplies like Farnell and Mouser can provide capacitors that are OK for power supplies such as Panasonic FC/FM/FR and Rubycon YXF/ZLH/ZLJ/ZLK.

            You can also order them from eBay if you are careful to avoid fakes, supplies like semtech1 and hmcomp seem to be genuine sellers, in general avoid buying capacitors from China as there are a lot of fakes coming out of there at the moment.

                I can pretty much guarantee the original is 3300uF, no one makes a 3330uF. Before you order please link us what you are ordering so we can be sure you are putting the right caps into it.

                    You can post it here, you do not need to send me a PM. Rubycon are good caps (1st place shared with Panasonic IMO) - but they also make general purpose caps. Make sure you order low esr/low impedance Rubycon.

                        They look fine to me. Check the dimensions will fit the board.

                              Glad it's all working for you. You probably haven't seen it working in some time... I doubt bad caps would make the picture poor. But enjoy it anyway!

                              And yet another reason why all capacitors should be replaced with high quality ones.

                                Hi I've got another problem with the same TV but I'm sorry I can't workout how to put a new post on the forum

                                The variable audio output on the rear of the TV set no longer works can you give me any advice what I can do to get it up and running again?

                                Many thanks

                                    If I turn off the Tv speaker off I do get the sound coming through a headset/headphones but I feel shaw the sound came out of the tv and the headphones both together.


                                    Yes it is both left and right channels

                                      Hmm, hate to suggest a "bodge" but could you use a 3.5mm to RCA cable hooked up to the headphone port? On the Samsung LCD at parent's house that can be controlled from TV volume control.

                                        In case you need to- one way -click on "todays posts." or "new posts" then in the right hand column click on a suitable forum
                                        eg "Troubleshooting TVs and Vieo sources" then in blue at the top left you should see NEW THREAD.

                                          Dell Optiplex 5050 SFF - strange behavior and service_mode jumper not working anymore
                                          by MMH3
                                          Hello,

                                          i have many 5050sff. all of them, and how i experienced over many years for all about 250 DELLs goin through my hands, are fully flashable and can be serviced in any way when the service_mode jumper is set.
                                          Never ever i experienced problems with that.

                                          Now i have one 5050sff machine, where this jumper isnt working at all.
                                          I do not get the normal messge that the jumper is set when booting and a short test with FPT just confirms this. Everything is locked -->> EVEN for reading !?

                                          The history of the machine is that i used it in my office...

                                          Dear colleagues,
                                          I've entered the repair of the chromebook machines just one month ago and I've found some significant differences from the classic laptops or macbooks, so I'm searching some advices.

                                          The owner of this chromebook gave it to me after it has been left flooded by water for almost a week, so chances of repair were not so high, the mainboard was oxidyzed in many spots but I made a nice cleaning, resoldering and component replaging work and now it is almost working.

                                          Among other things I've cleaned many spots from oxyds, reballed CPU, EMMC, EC, replaced...

                                          Hi,

                                          I have the above mentioned bord after repair, which was related to a lot of missing smd devices on the back of the board.
                                          There were almost 20 devices missing, caps, resistors and some diodes/mosfets.
                                          The board is generally working now, all PCIe ports are working, Windows installs normally.

                                          However I have a problem with SATA ports 4-7 (the board has 8 SATA ports) - disks are not beeing recognized by the BIOS neither by Windows (which is usually normal in case BIOS does not recognize them).
                                          The SATA 4-7 driver network is quite simple chipset<->buffers/drivers<->SATA...

                                          Hi i have one Macbook Air 2020 where touch ID is not working (it's not scanning fingerprints). Touch ID was working before, there is no error message during scanning fingerprint it's just not scanning on screen you can see only fingerprint but there are no red updates as when it's working. Power button is working fine.

                                          I've checked boardview and also schematics but i'm not able to find anything related to TouchID ... i have similar issue on a2338 where there was problem with PP3V0_TOUCHID​ and after replacing UT610 it was working but here i'm not able to find anything related to...

                                          ThinkPad X230T digitizer and pen not working anymore!

                                          Hello everyone,

                                          I was working on my ThinkPad X230 Tablet and accidentally cut one of the very thin wires (0.2mm thickness). It turns out it was the ground wire (GND) for digitizer. There are 5 thin wires for digitizer and here is the schematic for it:

                                          pin description
                                          23 USBP4+
                                          24 USBP4-
                                          25 STOP
                                          26 VCC3BLEDBD
                                          27 GND

                                          I turned the laptop with wires 23-26 all active and flowing to digitizer board BUT ground wire not connected (cut). Now when I turn the laptop on, neither touch nor pen is working. I tried and soldered wire...
