    LG 42LH30 with weird issue

    I have an LG 42LH30 that has power, but no sound or menus. The backlight works. Here is the weird part. If I am facing the TV and I put a very slight pressure on the very top right hand corner of the TV bezel (push straight back towards the wall) the TV menus will pop on and the tv works perfectly. I took the back off the TV and looked at everything and pushed on everything with a plastic rod to test for loose wires, etc and can find nothing loose. I am assuming a bad panel (or cold solder joint somewhere) but this in an uneducated guess. I can actually rig the TV to work by using strong tape to slightly pull back towards the wall on the upper right hand corner, but I feel that is dangerous. Any suggestions, ideas or comments would be very welcomed and appreciated.

    *note* There are no bad caps (visual inspection only) and no burn or scorched areas on any boards or elsewhere. All cables are tightly connected and every screw I could find has been tightened but made no difference.

    Probably issue with tab bonds on the panel
    I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

      Agree. Bad tab bonding. Look up tab bonding repair in the forums or YouTube.
      Did I leave the soldering iron on?

        Dell G3 17 3779 Weird power cycling and shutdown/restart issue
        by SuperJames
        This one's a weird one, and still unsolved despite it having gone back to Dell once.

        Specs

        i7-8750H, GTX 1060 Max Q, 500GB SSD & Seagate 7mm 1TB HDD. 17.3 IPS screen. This has the fingerprint reader in the power button.

        Backstory

        I bought this from eBay, from a wallpapering shop. £650 in 2020 which was a good price considering it's a gaming laptop. Physically it's in perfect shape, apart from the hinge mounts on the palmrest failing in the time I've had it (I have a new palmrest for it). The usual thin plastic crap modern build quality!...

        820-02020 Super Weird Issue: Keyboard Input Character Map "Wrong"?
        by ugamazing
        So, I have a really bizarre issue that I'm struggling to identify the cause of. Working on an 820-02020 board with some bizarre keyboard/input-source character mapping. My suspicion is a possible damaged SPI ROM (U1970), perhaps, but I'm really not sure in this case:

        1. The issue is pretty weird, but when installing MacOS, I noticed my WiFi password did not work. I quickly realized the special characters (!@#$%^& etc) were not mapping correctly.

        2. I noticed the keyboard layout/input-source is defaulting to JAPANESE every single time I restore the board. I am not...

        APC BR1000G battery backup has a weird issue sometimes a bad battery icon and making a weird sound for about 30 seconds
        by sam_sam_sam
        This started a few days ago and does this about every 8 hours

        After it does this it goes back to normal no bad battery icon and no weird sounds and it goes to battery backup mode so I am not sure what is going on with this battery backup

        The battery backup is about 3 or 4 years old

        Dose anyone have any idea on how to troubleshoot this issue I have never had a battery backup do this kind-a thing before so I am not sure exactly how to troubleshoot it and where to start
