Re: LG 50PA4500 Clicking troubleshooting HELP please...

Success! All credit goes to my father who I must give credit for this pretty impressive discovery. We replaced the C802 capacitor a few days ago to no avail. I was about ready to give up on this TV, but I asked my dad if there is anything else we can do with the power board. He inspects it and sees a spot of bad welding on the bottom of a transistor on the board. We clean it up as the metal on the pin had gotten dirty, and solder it as intended. Starts right up. Lets just hope it lasts :0.

Also, thanks to everyone...

Unfortunately, replacing the C802 capacitor didn't help. Still the exact same symptoms (relay clicking roughly every 15 seconds and a brief red led flash). Any other ideas?

Genuine thanks for such a quick reply; you don't see that too often lol. Also, I disconnected the board like you mentioned and still experienced the cycle of clicking. I already purchased a capacitor so I won't be needing one from you. Hopefully, it will be arriving soon so I can share whether it was a solution to the problem.

Re: LG 50PA4500 Clicking troubleshooting HELP please...

While everybody is asking questions, I'd like to chime in with mine. I am experiencing the clicking relay and brief red light flash on the front panel that everybody seems to be experiencing. Thing is, the C802 cap on my power supply is Blue and does not appear to bulge. It has not been replaced and is 1250v. Could this capacitor still be at fault even if is not bulging? I notice Brentsky also had a blue capacitor and changing helped him. I would appreciate some input. thanks
