LG 60pz550 TV has suddenly quit receiving signals on the front end. That is it is not receiving any signal from the antenna input, no channels. The TV works fine in every other respect, we can watch DVDs or go to netflix through the wifi dongle. I have rigged a band aid for the wife by using an old converter box as a tuner with an AV output to the TV. She now has all available channels and another remote to change them. My question: Has anyone else had this problem with this TV? Is this another bad solder problem? As this thing is a bear to open because of its size does anyone know what the part number is for the tuner board? I would like to have one in hand when I do open it up. Thanks to all for help and advice. This is definitely a goto site for working on this TV.

Re: LG 60pz550 tuner
Tuners seem to be pretty reliable your main might be failing in some way that's affecting the tuner.
Check SJ for pics that might show the part in question if your inclined to change it and can find it out in the wild -
Re: LG 60pz550 tuner
Has the TV lost both analogue and digital TV reception. Could you have lost the supply voltage to the tuner?Willing to help but I'm no expert.Comment

Re: LG 60pz550 tuner
Thanks for the replies and advice. I have not opened it up to do any troubleshooting. Tried two different antennas before installing the old converter so nothing analogue or digital through the antenna jack. Checking supply voltages is a good idea. Seems to have fallen into the "roundtoit" bucket but will get to it soon. Web research so far indicates the board hard to find and expensive. Any help here will be appreciated. Have already been through replacing the bad solder problem about a year ago with the sustain board. I resoldered the old board and replaced some IGBTs and was able to try it before the new board arrived but it still had a problem, did get a picture though. Another "roundtoit" on the shelf. I hear the Sea Ray at the marina calling.Comment
