    LG 50pa4500-UA front light flashes twice

    Had wrong model number corrected in this post, unable to edit the other

    showing power does nothing randomly turns on with 2 flashes: https://youtu.be/ZHME8GthErc


    Hello all I have an issue with my tv. I have had it for about 5-6 months because when I moved apartments the previous owner left the tv. and I got it for free it is a plasma tv and looks nice enough. an issue that started to happen was that it would kick off randomly but I could still turn it on well about a month or so I assumed the power button went out so I got a universal remote and programmed all lg codes and nothing just the solid red standby light so fast forward to a week ago and i got curious so I opened the TV up after find this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7UChm5b_rw same issue press power button still in stand by. sadly I dont speak this person's language andddd the auto generate CC is a bit hit or miss so I knew where to solid the transistor.

    I got a similar spec'd transitor as finding those transistors are difficult as they are disconnected, so I looked at a datasheet, found some info but went to an electronic discord to make sure everything was correct and what I should look out for, they told me as long as it drives with 4 volts on it would be good. I found a transistor that was 4 volts power on. and confirmed with the discord people that the transistor would be suitable for my needs. so I got it today and went to work well my soldering skill sort of suck right now so I couldn't get it on well, but enough to test so I pressed the power again no luck well I decided to just remove the leads and see if it powers on by some luck and to my surprise it did, but something was off... there was a logic control board that

    flashed 2 times in sync with the stand by indicator but it turned on none the less.

    i was happy it turned on then it randomly turned off as I was texting a friend that it works but I am not sure why. then you see in my video pressing the power does nothing after five minutes it randomly turns on I dont think using the av cables help it was just sort of dumb luck now it turns on for maybe 10 mintues turns off for about 5 then back repeat repeat repeat.

    You will get a lot more help on this forum if you post clear pictures of your TV boards and an overall shot of how everything is connected on the back.

      HP Elitebook 850 G8 CAPS lock flashes 7 times and charging light always on
      by esqmooo
      Hi,
      I'm facing this issue since this morning. When I try to power it on, the CAPS lock light flashes 7 times (or 6 if not counting the first one when the power button is pressed). The charging light is always on as if the laptop was connected to the charger. The issues started gradually where it would flash the light but after trying multiple time it would power on. I tried to open it and I noticed one coil "1R0 2127" gets hot when the charger is connected. Note: the charging light directly comes on when the battery is connected or the charger is connected.

      Hp x360 15-u499nr power light flashes continuously.
      by CraigR
      I have an Hp x360 15-u499nr laptop with a continuous white blinking power light. The laptop does turn on. The light flashes with just the battery and if I disconnect the battery and just use the power cord it still flashes and with both connected it still does. I have updated the bios and tried a hard reset with battery unplugged and power cord unplugged and holding down the power button for 60 seconds. I can't think of what else to try.

      LG 39ln540v - red light flashes twice, no power to LED driver?
      by russpall
      Hi there,

      I've got a 39" LG 39LN540V that's just spontaneously stopped working! The symptoms are - when I plug it in, the red light will flash on twice, then go out, there's no visible picture, and I couldn't see anything using a torch on the panel either. If I press the power button (either remote or on TV), the red light comes on continuously. If I press power again, the red light flashes twice.

      The TV is using a power board EAX64905301. I've attached a diagram of the power output, I've tested the voltages with a multimeter and I'm getting the following:

      Insignia NS-LCD019-09 issue: Power light turns blue for 3 seconds, the flashes red before going solid read again
      by cajoeg
      Hello, I'm new to the group and to trying to repair a LCD TV. During the past few years, I've been collecting/repairing/restoring vintage personal computers (Commodore, Apple II, Atari, TRS-80, Texas Instruments, and Timex Sinclair). This has been my retirement hobby. Now I've gotten interested in trying to repair a LCD TV that I have and used regularly when working on vintage computers.

      The LCD I'm working on is a Insignia NS-LCD019. I've downloaded the service manual that I could find, but it must be a different revision since not too many items in the service manual match the TV...

      HP Omen only do not turn on, only flashes white light
      by ruletero
      Hi everyone

      Please help me with this laptop

      HP Omen 15-dc0003la , MB DAG3DBMB8D0 REV. D

      It doesn't turn on, when I connect the charger with battery orange light appears on power jack and without battery white light appear, it is fine I think

      But if I press power button, power led flashes white once, only that, not consumes anything power, not start, nothing more.

      Bios was programmed with a working version, no changes.

      Voltages

      +3vS5 = 3v when I connect charger, next goes to 0 (I think is fine)...
