Currently this set will turn on run anywhere from 5 to 20 mins. then turn off all on it's own. Doesn't have sleep mode on checked that. I left it plugged in one day after it shut off and it turned back on about 5 hrs later by itself. Don't see any bad caps or anything.

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
Sounds heat related - try having it on with the back off and a deskfan blowing on it to see if it stays on any longer.. Or after it has gone off try the fan and see if it comes back on.Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
i had this on a tv,
it was a voltage regulator breaking down as it got hot.
how i found it, i turned the tv on and metered all the regulators.
then i waited for it to die - in my case it was about 5min's so easier than yours.
then i metered all the regulators again.Comment

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
Turned it on this morning almost made it 30 mins. I believe it's heat related as well, after I took the back off I noticed 2 areas that look a bit dark I included the photos. I'll see if I can't hunt down the voltage regulator. STJ so you just replaced the regulator and it was fine?Comment

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
the only think i can think of is to check for dry solder joints on the psu (expand when warm contract when cold) also maybe get a can of freeze spray and spray the regulators when the set goes off and see which one when cools allows it to turn straight back on but try the voltage checks first save buying freeze spray.Last edited by vinceroger69; 07-24-2014, 11:22 AM.Comment

good brush down to get rid of the dust might help.
VRs are on the Green Board Probably U***Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
regulators are on the green board, i see atleast 4
in my case it was an 8pin regulator and i couldnt ID the damned chip.
it was generating 5v so i replaced it with a small pcb with a different regulator on it!

i dont recommend this unless you really cant fix it properly though!Comment

i would guess the main board the one in pic one on the right.Comment

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
To anyone reading this who can't find a replacement main board, it might be possible to fix this problem without buying anything. I borrowed a trick from computer repair forums - it involves removing the problem circuit board and baking it in the oven to reflow the solder joints. Yes, that's right.
If the TV works fine for a little while but then suddenly powers off, it is most likely a heat problem. If the TV warms up and cools down many times over months or years, it can cause fractures in the solder joints that produce exactly this kind of problem. It works fine when cool, but after warming up the fractures expand and it fails again.
I fixed my LG TV by removing the main board and baking it in the oven at 375 for about 7 minutes. Put it on a baking sheet suspended on a few crumpled up balls of aluminum foil. Let it cool completely before placing it back in the TV. Don't go any longer than 7-8 minutes because you don't want to melt any of the plastic connectors. After 7 minutes there were no signs of melting or warping on my main board, so you should be safe at that temperature/time. Most solder melts at 360-370 degrees so a temp of 375 is necessary.Comment

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
This is not reflow as the temps do not get high enough to melt lead free solder with melting temps above 400F. I suspect flux is the key to the temporary success. You are reaching temps high enough to activate the flux and clean the oxides which act as an insulator and reestablish contact. Reballing is more of a long term fix if done properly.I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.Comment

Re: Lg 50pn6500 Shuts off after 5 -20mins
I highly recommend you do not do this unless you have absolutely no alternative. Also you will want to place your board in there when the oven is cold otherwise the sudden temperature change could cause warping of the board and then you could be in real trouble. Do it for 10 minutes total I would sayComment

My laptop HP 245 AMD 14-FP5-6L -GDDR5X2 has a battery charging circuit error:
- If not power on, battery charge ok.
- if i turn on the power, not charging the battery ( the battery charging indicator light, from yellow to white)
The laptop only charges when not turned on. I have changed the battery and charger, but the situation remains unchanged.
I replaced the BQ 25A charging IC but the device only charges when not turned on.
everyone please help me with solution, what should i do ?
thanks a lot !!!!!... -
by chaos-theoryI have a really weird problem, this motherboard was working normally, someday it just started and all fans were running but didn't want to post, tried resetting bios, checking CPU and it was getting warm tried external gpu, flashed bios with programmer, but same problem.
Next day after several attempts the board goes into protection mode, no more staying on, I turn on the PSU fans starts directly turning, it used to not start until I press the pwr button, now it starts directly and fans spins, and shuts off after 3 seconds sometimes less, then won't start again unless I unplug the PSU and... -

Have in work A1706 820-00239 model. Originally no power, shorted PPBUS_G3H because of corroded C6403, C6404. Some water damage around this components, but nothing major.
After replacing this capacitors the laptop came back to work, I reinstalled MacOS and had no issues until I started to test Type-C ports. Sometimes the laptop shuts off immediately when some action with Type-C ports performed (charger disconnected or USB device inserted/disconnected). I checked Type-C port flexes, they are okay, but I cleaned them anyway. I can't see any signs of liquid...11-20-2024, 08:14 AM -
by samuelphirikHi. I have a pre-owned Dell Inspiron 15 7567. It worked fine
During the first 3 days of owning it until Dell Update software popped a notification about a latest Bios version 1.15.0 and latest Intel ME Software update of which I updated. It rebooted and firstly, Upgraded Bios from version 1.8.1 to 1.15.0 then it started upgrading Intel ME firmware. After that update, my laptop shuts down without notice (Like thermal shutdown)
I checked Thermal Paste on the processor and the Graphics Chip and it was dry. Replacing thermal paste has not helped me.
Now I've noticed that laptop... -
by ChieftainHello to everyone.
I am facing a problem with a Sony DA0HK9MB6D0.
Temperatures are fine (40-45) , Laptop boots fine but every 15-20 minutes laptop shuts down suddenly (like removing battery-PSU)
