    Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

    Hi all, my name is Christian. I've picked up a couple TVs from the trash over the past year.

    One was a Sharp Roku TV that was freezing up when it tried to connect to WiFi. I opened it up and unhooked the WiFi board and it has worked fine w/out the builtin Roku features since.

    The latest one is a 60" LG 60PA6500. It's got me pretty baffled - works fine for a while, then won't turn on for a day or two. I see others have posted similar stuff and I'm going to post more in a different thread to see if anyone can help me troubleshoot.

              Hi,
              I am a self-taught repair master haha. Recently discovered the bios reprogramming tool and it already saved so many laptops I am trying to fix.

                  Hello Everyone,

                  I haven't done anything like this since the early 90s. I'm an avid gamer and firm believer in the right to repair, repairing things myself, and learning something new. Necessity is the mother of invention and growth. I now have the necessity and opportunity to learn and try and fix one of my GPUs.

                  I'm looking forward to learning from everyone out there.

                  Thank you,

                  A_LARGE_BEAVER

                    Hi everyone,
                    I'm Neil, based in Wales, UK.
                    I found this forum looking for information on how to repair a failed TV. I always believe in repair over throwing equipment out - with most things it's a pretty simple fault which stops it working.
                    I am an electronics / firmware engineer and have worked in a lot of industries including computer peripherals, security systems, CCTV, access control, scientific instruments and currently tools for the oils and gas industry. Been building and fixing computers since before having one at home was a thing!
                    Thanks for inviting me.

                        Hi there, used to be on here years ago and found it very good. Returning now to look for a schematic for a power board!

                              Sounds good. What's the name of the bios reprogramming tool?

                                    Hi,
                                    I’ve just joined the forum from Harrogate, UK, as I have recently bought a 2nd hand Panasonic plasma TV, and the screen has gone ‘red’ today after a couple of hours of use (it was used yesterday for longer with no issues). Here’s hoping the solution identified in the forum will work, but at least the TV was only £30.

                                      I have just joined the forum from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I've been working as a IT manager for the last 20 years and recently started using my free time to study electronics. I've reached this forum when I as looking for a board schematic, which unfortunately I was not able to find yet. Anyway, I hope to learn a lot from you guys, so thank you very much for this opportunity!
