My webos tv (approx 10 yrs old) just went black. When I turn it on it flicks and I see the LG logo briefly and it goes off.
The red indicator light flashes a few times and turns off.
I’ve tried unplugging the TV for 10 min after holding the TV power button for 30 seconds. I’ve also unplugged all hdmi cables to no avail.

I have recently allowed a software update on my LG tv and now my DVD recorder automatically turns my tv back on when a recording stops and and when I had already manually turned off both recorder and tv. This is particularly when it happens in the very early morning! How do I stop this. I am a pensioner and not a tech nerd!

Building a Stronger Foundation for Long-Term Qualitative Growth
Through Portfolio Shifts and Operational Resilience
SEOUL, July 25, 2025 — LG Electronics Inc. (LG) today announced consolidated revenue of KRW 20.74 trillion and operating profit of KRW 639.4 billion for the second quarter of 2025.
Both revenue and operating profit declined year-over-year, primarily due to continued global market softness, increased tariff burdens driven by changes in U.S. trade policy, and intensified competition. Rising costs, including logistics expenses, also weighed on overall profitability compared to the same period last year.
Despite these challenges, the Home Appliance Solution (HS), Vehicle Solution (VS) and Eco Solution (ES) Companies delivered strong performance, each posting year-over-year increases in both revenue and operating profit. All three Companies achieved their highest-ever second-quarter results. In particular, the VS Company recorded its best quarterly revenue and operating profit in history.
Meanwhile, the Media Entertainment Solution (MS) Company reported an operating loss, primarily due to lower TV sales and increased marketing spend. However, its webOS platform-based advertising and content business continued to generate stable profits, increasingly contributing to the Company’s overall performance.
Building Stronger Foundation for Qualitative Growth
LG continues to strengthen its business fundamentals by focusing on B2B segments such as vehicle components and HVAC systems, non-hardware businesses including subscription services and the webOS platform, and direct-to-consumer (D2C) operations via its online platform, LGE.COM.
In Q2 2025, B2B revenue – including vehicle, component and smart factory solutions, as well as HVAC – rose 3 percent year-over-year to KRW 6.2 trillion. Revenue from the home appliance subscription business increased 18 percent, reaching KRW 630 billion.
These segments remain central to the company’s ongoing portfolio transformation. The B2B business is less susceptible to demand volatility and benefits from strong entry barriers due to solution-based customer relationships. Non-hardware businesses offer recurring revenue and high margins, while the D2C channel enhances profitability and brand equity.
Q2 2025 Results & Outlook by Company
LG Home Appliance Solution (HS) Company
The HS Company posted second-quarter revenue of KRW 6.59 trillion and operating profit of KRW 439.9 billion, achieving its highest-ever second-quarter performance. Despite soft consumer demand, tariff pressures and rising freight costs, the Company maintained strong global competitiveness. Its dual-track strategy – targeting both premium and mass-market segments – continued to drive solid results. The subscription model business continued its rapid expansion. Operational efficiencies and production optimization helped offset increased costs and support profitability.
Looking ahead, market recovery is expected to remain gradual amid heightened competition. The Company will focus on expanding its subscription and D2C businesses and pursue additional cost improvements to help mitigate U.S. tariff impacts. While logistics cost pressures are projected to ease slightly compared to late 2024 and early 2025, the Company plans to carefully manage marketing expenditures to sustain or exceed last year’s level of operating profit.
LG Media Entertainment Solution (MS) Company
The MS Company posted second-quarter revenue of KRW 4.39 trillion and an operating loss of KRW 191.7 billion, primarily due to softened demand leading to lower TV sales and increased marketing expenses in response.
Going forward, the Company will focus on enhancing operational efficiency across all business segments. It plans to expand its presence in Global South markets such as India, where demand remains relatively strong. Continued growth is also expected in the webOS platform business, with new content offerings in areas such as gaming and digital art.
LG Vehicle Solution (VS) Company
The VS Company generated record second-quarter revenue of KRW 2.85 trillion and operating profit of KRW 126.2 billion – the highest in its history. Performance was supported by a robust order backlog and increased OEM vehicle sales, particularly in Europe.
A strategic shift toward premium in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems significantly enhanced profitability, while operational efficiency improvements in electric vehicle components and lighting systems further bolstered results. Moving forward, the Company will focus on strengthening relationships with key customers and maintaining profitability through ongoing efficiency gains.
LG Eco Solution (ES) Company
The ES Company achieved second-quarter revenue of KRW 2.64 trillion and operating profit of KRW 250.5 billion, marking a record for second-quarter performance. This growth was driven by strong demand for residential air conditioners in Korea and continued expansion in the commercial and industrial HVAC segments. Higher sales volumes boosted operating leverage, leading to improved profitability.
Looking ahead to the second half of the year, the Company aims to capture replacement demand for high-efficiency products while expanding its product portfolio to support long-term growth. It also plans to explore new opportunities in emerging sectors such as AI data centers by enhancing its commercial HVAC and industrial chiller capabilities – including systems for power generation – and scaling up its liquid-cooling solutions business.

Company Plans to Focus on Reinforcing its Business Fundamentals by
Prioritizing Areas of Qualitative Growth
SEOUL, July 7, 2025 — LG Electronics Inc. (LG) today announced its preliminary earnings results for the second-quarter of 2025, reporting a consolidated revenue of KRW 20.74 trillion and operating profit of KRW 639.1 billion.
Both revenue and operating profit declined year-over-year. The slowdown reflects continued weakness in consumer sentiment across major markets and an increasingly challenging external environment. In particular, changes in U.S. trade policy led to higher tariff costs and intensified market competition, further weighing on performance.
Despite an unfavorable business environment, LG’s core businesses—including Home Appliances Solutions, as well as B2B-driven segments such as Vehicle Solutions and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)—delivered solid performance and maintained sound profitability. However, the media and entertainment solutions business faced a challenging quarter due to slowdown in demand, higher LCD panel prices and increased marketing expenses amid intensifying competition. Profitability was also affected by increased costs, including U.S. general tariffs, steel and aluminum derivative tariffs, and logistics expenses.
In the second half, LG will focus on reinforcing its business fundamentals by prioritizing areas of “qualitative growth.” This includes expanding high-margin, stable-growth B2B sectors such as Vehicle Solutions and HVAC, scaling non-hardware businesses including webOS platform services and subscription-based models, and enhancing direct-to-consumer (D2C) sales through LGE.COM.
B2B operations offer greater resilience against demand and pricing volatility, making them well-suited for expanding solution-based businesses and establishing entry barriers through strong partnerships. Subscription models and platform-based services support recurring revenue and higher profitability, while D2C sales contribute to both improved profit structure and enhanced brand value.
The home appliance solutions business is maintaining a strong presence in the premium market and also achieving success in the volume zone lineups despite softening demand due to changes in U.S. trade policy and geopolitical risks in the Middle East, while its subscription model continues to perform steadily. In the second half, logistics costs are expected to ease, allowing the company to focus on securing sales, minimizing tariff impacts and ensuring a sound profit structure through operational efficiency.
The media and entertainment solutions business was impacted by price reductions aimed at addressing stagnant demand and higher marketing spend. In the second half, LG aims to further solidify its leadership in the premium OLED TV segment through the launch of new wireless products, while enhancing the competitiveness of the webOS platform by expanding into new content areas such as gaming and digital art.
The vehicle solutions business continues to grow steadily despite industry-wide challenges. Revenue growth and operational efficiency improvements have led to an increase in operating profit compared to the previous year. LG plans to drive sales of premium in-vehicle infotainment systems and diversify with new offerings like automotive content platforms.
In the HVAC business, LG will intensify its focus on commercial air conditioning systems and industrial cooling solutions—particularly by integrating AI-powered technologies into next-generation data center applications, expanding its AI data center (AIDC) business. The company also expects to complete the acquisition of European hot water solutions company OSO, supporting its expansion into the rapidly growing European Air-to-Water Heat Pump market through synergy and scale.
These figures are tentative consolidated earnings based on K-IFRS provided as a service to investors prior to LG Electronics’ final earnings results, including net profit. Details regarding each division will be announced officially later this month.

Question
mikemilw2002
This is a much asked about question:
LG Smart LED TVs that turn on for a second, show the LG logo, then a black screen ensues.
My TV is a LG 43uj6200 TV.
I have tried the typical troubleshooting steps involving holding the power down for 15 seconds while unplugged, then waiting up to 15 min, then holding down the power again while it turns on. No fix there.
I am getting the 3 red blinks, but the system will stay on (at least the motherboard does). 3 red blinks indicates that it is a power supply issue, from what I read.
Also, I visually looked at the mainboard for faulty caps (leaky or busted cans). Nothing visible. I have read that there is a power diode that could be bad. I did a diode check on all diodes near the "blue rectangular component" (possibly a relay?) None of the diodes showed an open circuit or an infinite voltage.
I do not have an ESR/LCR meter but am going to get one in a few days.
I measured the voltage on the output of the power board and it is supposed to be 13.2 volts. I got 13.08V. Measuring the second to last pin (P-ON), I got 3.2V. I am not sure if that is up to par. I think 3.3V is the requirement for the mainboard.
The last pin at the bottom of the connector is called INV-OK or something like that. I measured 2.85V there. Are these voltages within spec?
I have also read that the LEDs could be open circuited or failing which would draw more current than the power board can handle. This could also cause the shutdown.
Does anyone have any other repair tips for this? I really don't want to have to buy a new power or mainboard.
Thanks
Mike
