Hi All,

I have an LG OLED55B8SLC.BEKWLJP which consumes 24W in standby ad infinitum. I've eliminated other causes like WiFi, pixel refresh etc. I'm pretty sure the fault/design flaw is in the PSU because when I disconnect the main and TCON boards, the PSU still consumes 24W.

It would cost me around £30 / $40 a year in electricity for no good reason if I didn't unplug it every evening. Not a great deal of money but if other LG TVs do the same, that's a whole load of unnecessary planet warming.

The service manual unfortunately doesn't contain any schematics...

Hello,

I'm an incurable tinkerer from Birmingham (UK) and have been taking things apart since 1980. My wife says I can fix anything but I don't tell her about my failures.

This site looks like a great antidote for our throw-away culture and looking forward to contributing.
