Can we fix an LG TV/monitor? Only if we can get it apart.

    In our throwaway society, so much stuff is designed to go together quickly, easily and securely in the factory and not come apart without a fight or without breakage! You did well to get into the thing and these days any repair I'd do on something like this would only be if it was my own unit.

    Just wanted to say thank you so much for doing this video.
    I thought it was just me struggling with the bezel, it's horrible!
    I'm currently trying to dismantle my own to check if dust got inside, as I've had it since 2013.

    This is one thing that annoys me with new LCD tv's is the complete lack of connections these days, alot of them have HDMI and thats it☹ most tv's pre 2008 used to always have s video aswell.

    My LG Freeview/DVD recorder had PSU issues awhile ago. I replaced the bulging caps but it still did'nt work. I replaced opto-coupler/transistors and diodes that were bad, still nothing.
    So I bought a broken one off ebay that was the same model and mashed them together. It works. LOL.

    That was not too bad. In my last video I tackled a Dell 2407 with a cascading failure of many components in its power supply.

      I still have a Samsung TV to sort out where I replaced a blown up IC but still it doesn't run. There's only so much money it's worth spending on older Samsung TVs though because the cold cathode backlights used to age to a nasty yellow colour.

    My samsung 32 inch curved pc monitor has no screws holding it together but i done a white pc build and wanted a white monitor and not many options so i went with a samsung not a brand i would normally bother with but its not that old so hopefully it will be 4 or 5 years before it has to come apart .I changed a capacitor in my mates samsung tv that failed put a panasonic cap in that most likely cost more than all the chinese ones in the set and its still working fine a few years later .

    Easiest way I've found to get plastic clips to 'disengage' is to pry them open with a plastic card - an old bank card is ideal. Saves your fingers and the possibility of the clips snapping.

      I was using one of those at one point, but wasn't really winning.

    Well done colin :-D, That was worth the capacitors and pinched fingers, no swearing please lol.
    The psu was not made by L.G, so no diagram 😞
    The inside looks underwhelming, some one has stolen the guts lol.

    That's why newish stuff goes in the bin , after failure

      Which is wrong really. The components to repair this cost pennies. It should have been easier to take apart.

    I don't care what anybody says new tellys rubbish to work on give me the old days when I used to work on the TVs from the past

      Well they certainly used to be easier to take apart. I used to mess about with dinosaurs like Decca Bradfords in the day. I even had a B&O 2600 model, which consumed more power than any other TV sold in the UK, but had lovely sound quality.

    Another great video it’s amazing that just two simple capacities replacement made all the difference. If your looking for ideas for another video , how do you get to the switch on a Umatic 3/4 tape machine.

    Smaller screen TVs seem to be utter rubbish these days.

      It's all about cost unfortunately. But this one came good, whereas the Samsung ones seem to suffer from backlight failure (they go yellow).
