Open the back cover and check the fuse on YSUS Board. If the fuse was gone, replace the YSUS board or ZSUS board.

SOURCE: I have a LG 42LB1DR

I just got of the phone with a manager at LG and they want to send out a technician to figure out the problem. I made it more than clear that their are more than just a handful of us experiencing this problem, and they are "looking into it".

I think we all need to call in and complain, and drive the fact home that this is not a single incident, but that there are many of us having this problem. Point them to this forum, and tell them your faith in LG is waning. A threat of informing the Better Business Bureau never hurt either. That's what I did, and now they are looking into it more, and are going to cover the parts on the service call, so that my expense for their problem is covered, even though my warranty is expired.

If we want this fixed, and prevented in the future, we have to call and bitch, that is the bottom line. It is unfortunate, but that is how it has to work sometimes.

Here is the number for their customer service: 800-243-0000

If you hear anything new, let us know!

LG 55 UF6450 tv. The left half of the screen went to a weirdly shaded image over about 15 minutes and stayed that way.

The left side data buffer board is damaged, in most case is water leaked to the left side of the bottom screen.

LG 37LE5300 HAS HALF BLACK SCREEN

THIS set uses 2 boards inside--one drives the left and the other the right side of the screen.

You have to id which is which (GOOGLE?) AND replace it-every brand has different names for these but it sounds like your problem

Some research (you or me) should give a board breakdown for this model---not looking for main or power board but another like sustain etc. and there will be 2 listed (for right and the left sides)

LG 50PG20 Plasma,, nothing shows on screen its all black

This model was known for issues with the Y-sustain, Y-drives, and the Z-sustain boards. These boards help process the picture image to the screen.

When one or more of these boards fail, the screen stays black, and you only have audio & on/off.

You could call LG and try to get your TV repaired at a discount if you can convince LG to honor this known issue.

Another issue could be the actual panel has gone bad. The plasma panel in your TV has a two warranty and LG would fix that for free. Well…it would be free as long as it’s not past two years of your date of purchase.

What zip code are you in?

Only right side of screen

If the TV cost to much to repair, would you be willing to sell it for parts? My front glass screen has got a chip in it. Cant see paying 500 just to have a new one installed.
Thanks
