    Power Supply (COV33697901) from LG 50UH5500 (or 50UH5530) is buzzing/humming

    I got this TV fully operational and all is working fine. The PSU (transformer) on the other hand is making noises that are quite audible, even with back cover on.

    Video with sound of the issue.

    Any thoughts on what can be causing this?

      LG 55LM6200 buzzing / humming power board
      by notallbad
      Having replaced a brand new full led backlight set and fixing a mainboard fault (power-on transistor) theres now a louder than normal hum / buzz coming from the power board in the AC filter, namely in the LF101 / 2 area, or at least thats where the sound is more resonant whilst the backlight is set at 100%. Turn down the backlight to 50% its less noticeable and 0% its non-audible.

      When the rear case is fitted back on its more audible and its certainly more than an acceptable level so would rather solve than leave like it.

      Have powered on the tv with panel disconnected...

      Don't seem to be able to track down where the buzz/hum is coming from on the X and Y main boards. Its more audible on the Y board. Possibly an acceptable level coming from the X board once the rear cover is back on.

      Resoldered joints, found a few that looked like they needed it. Checked caps which seem ok on the X/Y and psu.

      In standby theres no hum/buzz, only when its switched on. Turning the brightness up makes no difference to the...

      PowerMac G5 ACBel 614-0303 buzzing
      by dcbw
      The PSU works, but shortly after powering on (either in the G5, or by shorting the power-on pin to ground) it begins buzzing loudly. It also makes the LED lights connected to the same circuit flicker. It's definitely a buzzing, not a high pitched whine.

      The buzzing seems to come from the high voltage side of the board, perhaps from the white relay. Could the relay be bad, or could the 5V supply be bad enough that it's unable to keep the relay on? Any pointers to help isolate the issue? Thanks!

      HP1955L Buzzing noise & interference
      by stvhop
      Hello, This is my first post so please forgive me if I miss out some vital info.
      I have a problem with my HP1955L monitor from 2005.
      The first thing to say is that it is still basically working, ie the picture is fine.
      However it makes an electrical buzzing sound. I know all monitors make some some of hum, but this is louder and more of a buzz.
      The volume of the noise seems to be dependent on how hard the monitor is working; switched on with a blank screen -> no sound; small dialog (like OSD only) -> minor buzzing; full screen picture -> loud buzzing.

      Hanns-G HG281D - LCD Monitor - Low B/L voltage and loud buzzing...

      The pics are off the other really long thread as they are much clearer than my phone will do.

      The fault:

      In standby there is no buzzing.
      After signal input and turn on, a loud buzzing is emitted from the main transformer, no backlight.

      It is because the 24v line is at 21v irrespective of whether the inverter is plugged in. There is a picture on the screen.

      If you wait long enough the buzzing stops and the 24v line changes to 24v and the inverter comes on.

      I have checked every single cap on the psu and logic board by un-soldering...
