    Weird problem with LG 50 PQ30

    My 4 or 5 year old LG 50PQ30 is displaying a window asking if I'd like to enjoy my new device. If I select "yes", it switches to AV2, and there is nothing plugged in that input. At times it starts flashing this message every couple of minutes, and if you turn it off, it may pop right back up. I've reset the tv, that hasn't helped, and LG says they have not heard of this issue. Anyone have any ideas, or is it time to scrap it?

    Have you tried cleaning the socket - check for bent pins. If the set is 4-5 years old
    and not been opened may be worth trying spring clean in case dust is conducting.

    Try plugging something into the AV2 (after cleaning) see if that stops it.
    Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

      I moved the input to HDMI3, and it worked for a while, then that input started doing the same thing. I'll try blowing out the inputs and plugging something into AV2, thanks for the answer.

        Nitro rx580 very weird problem, VCORE and EN
        by chaos-theory
        Hello!
        I have this very weird problem, I got this rx580 nitro saphire and the fans don't even spin but the saphire logo is lit.
        All voltage rails are present except for VCORE at the coils, then I started checking NCP81022 and it has voltage but vdd pwrgd is missing, enable EN is missing it shows 2.5ohm, everything seems fine, i tried checking the back of the card, to see where the enable pin goes, i dont have a schematic so i started touching randomly until i measured a resistor on the back and the fans started spinning, now I was amazed like what is wrong here? So I thought it's a...

        Samsung UE32J5373AS Weird LED Problem
        by sorrowfulfloyd
        Hi all, first time seeing a LED problem this weird so I wanted to discuss with y'all before handing back this TV to my costumer.

        This TV came to my shop with no picture but sound present. So I thought ok this must be a LED problem and I shine a light with my phone's torch amd and yup I see the image. So I disassemble it and before changing the LEDs I check the motherboard voltages (this unit works with an external 16V DC brick) and I see 54 volts at the input pin of LED strip, considering this TV has 2 strips of 7 LEDs which at 3~ volts it must be equal to like 42 volts. I remove...

        Problem with LG Plasma 60PM6700 - Random power downs
        by theone111
        I have an LG Plasma TV 60PM6700 for the past ~12 years.

        In the last ~3-4 months I have been having some issues.
        1. Problem: It started with random picture disappearing (sound still worked).
          Frequency: Happened about once a week.
          Solution: Had to turn off TV wait a few seconds before turning it on again.
        2. Problem: Then it got worse and the TV started to shut down and when turning on the no picture just sound.
          Frequency: Happened about once a week.
          Solution: Had to turn off TV wait about 10-20 seconds and turn it on again to solve.
        3. Problem: TV shuts down

        Macbook M1 A2337 EMC 3598 weird battery charging problem
        by brockauly
        Hi guys,

        If I unplugged the battery and the charger, then plug the battery then the charger, it charges without problem.
        Then if I unplug the charger and plug it back, it won't charge anymore.
        In the first case, main voltage is regulated at ~12.5V and charges the battery.
        After unplugging the charger, main voltage drops to battery voltage at ~11.5V.
        After replugging the charger, main voltage stays at ~11.5V and won't go up to ~12.5V again.

        I found C520A (2.2ยต after current sensor from USB-C source) completely burnt and removed it properly. I cleaned...

        a1398 2015 weird keyboard problem
        by wnt2fx
        I installed a new keyboard and it can smc reset and the power button works. but nothing apart. no boot picker e.g. I am wondering how this can be explained if the alt key (smc reset) is working. I am aware that on the board side shift, ctrl, alt and pwr are separately wired but the board, trackpad/cable are good. The keyboard was tested working prior installing and as another keyboard now tested on the same board improvised works as well the only idea I have is that I damaged the keyboard flex cable while installing it into the case. But why hell smc reset and power are working then ? Anyone has...
