LG Keeps Restarting
|
Can't Post
|
|
I have an LG 42LK520 LCD television. It will work for a bit, then will just restart itself over and over. If you turn it off for a while and then turn it on, it will work for 20 min or so, then start it's auto-rebooting circle.
Suspecting overheating, I popped off the back. Then I turned it on while aiming a box fan at the back of it to try and keep it cool. TV has been running with no issue since then.
So the question is, how do I cool it? Is it most likely the processor? Mine has a small metal thing to dissipate heat. I saw a youtube video of a guy installing a processor fan in his, but didn't include very much detail of how he made that happen. I have lots of experience custom building PCs, so I'm familiar with CPU cooling devices... but not so much on the TV side of things.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
