Re: LG 42PQ3000 No longer powering on?!

Aha back from a weekend away and ready to go again.

Yeah sorry for the pictures, unfortunately my camera broke so I'm left with mobile phone shots and the HTC One's lower res, 'larger' pixels doesn't sell itself to highly detailed shots.

Hi Badcaps,

A quick google brought me here after looking around on how to solve a few issues regarding my TV.
