Hey Simon, its me again haha I didn't realize you had to more parts of the original video, it seems to me it worked what you have done so I hope when I do this to my LG 47 led woks like yours, I will let you know, thanks,.you're cool Simon.
The saga continues. "It's been a year since I last shaved and I've run out of cocktail sticks..." :)) But seriously, thanks for posting these videos! You saved me a lot of money with this fix!
Holy s*** this worked! Although I only used three cocktail sticks blu-tacked under one cable, it sorted the TV. I can now turn it off and on without having to go through the rigaramole of wrestling the TV to make it work. As it turns out, the TV heats up more around the centre than the edge I worked on so I needn't have worried about fire hazards. Thank you for this tip, excellent fix.
To be honest, it's not perfect. When starting up you still need to touch it in the right places to get the proper picture but getting the proper picture is easier and once achieved the picture stays stable a lot longer so this has definitely helped. I hope it helps you too!
The boards in use here are generally used for transmitting data only, so little heat is produced, and of course paper/wood is non-conductive so no chance of creating electrical shorts.
