    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    Yes, I had the same experience. I am the one that tried the fail wire removal and it worked. However, my guess is you are in the same boat as I am...your LED's are failing. I couldn't see it at first either...but my wife said on some shows she could notice it was a little darker in the...

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    Keep in mind, there could be lots of other reasons for the fail...so removing that wire could certainly do other damage. Not saying it will or won't...just proceed at your own risk. In addition, I was concerned about overheating, etc...so I unplugged it when we were not watching it for the...

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    Mine slowly got worse as more and more LED strips failed. I intend to replace the strips, but have got around to it yet. It basically just keeps getting dimmer and dimmer...we finally couldn't watch it, so replaced with our older one from storage until I get a chance to replace LED strips.

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    Sorry, I would have no idea if that TV even works similar from the power fail standpoint as mine. I

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    Yea, mine started in upper right. If you get some strips and do the install, please post back on how it goes. It seems like a big job and I'm not sure I want to tackle it. Sad that we pay so much for a TV and only get a couple years out of it!

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    I am still using it, though I can see darkening in the picture in some areas...the LEDs are certainly going out...but it's still very watchable.

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    I don't have any site to refer to and a quick google on your TV shows a completely different power board...so I wouldn't know where to point you at this point. Is it a similar type issue, where you get the logo then it powers down and flashes the power LED? I don't know about these damn TV 's...

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    It is likely different on different model power supplies perhaps? On mine, which is a P6L01D power supply on my LG 65UH5500 TV, is is clearly labeled "Fail" on the board...and also on the LED driver board that the power supply connects to. On my power supply, it is the 5th wire up from the...

    Question LG TV red light blinks 3 times then turns off

    I thought I would post my results on this similar problem with my LG 65uh5500-ua TV. I had the same problem as a LOT of other people. Seems like it updated firmware (damn automatic updates sometimes!) and then when I turn it on, it flashes the logo on the screen and goes blank. Then the power...
