Loud bang then tv powered off
Hi. I wonder if someone can help
Just a few minutes of turning on the TV there was a loud bang then the tv power was lost. There was no smoke or smell. It appears that there is a tiny component with black around it on the power board.
I was advised by someone that I could replace the blown component on the board, but that could mean the cause of it to blow could still be there and was advised to get a new power board.
I contacted LG but they said they don’t sell internal boards to private individuals. I looked on ebay and found several boards that looked identical but was warned by the sellers that the numbers had to match up. It wasn’t clear where i find these numbers as it just said sticker and the only sticker i could find looked more like a serial number. Also these boards were around 50€ which seems expensive for a second hand part I have no guaranty is going to work itself
Can someone tell me what would be my best course of action? Especially if they have had a similar experience. The TV is jsut over 6 years old. Its an LG 42LN5708
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hi,
Post some close up images of the suspected faulty component and the rest of the power board as well.
Here's how to do this

Thanks jayeff. I have just done that now. Also a friend i showed it to suggested that the component next to it where you can see the direction of the contents of the component blew to appears to be overheated. He assertained this from looking under the board. Therefore I've also included a picture of under the board. Im not sure how adequate the pictures are. If i take them again in daylight they could possibly come out clearer
