My 32 inch LG TV turns on but the picture is gray and displays a title of needing the original remote to turn off and on. I do not have that remote is there a specific remote to use. Whats wrong?
Generally all LCD TVs will have a T-Con (timing control board). What you describe here is exactly what you need. In some cases the T-con board is imbedded onto the screen (panel). The old term of picture tube is now called the panel. If this is the case, your TV cannot be repaired, as a new panel would be the price of a new TV. As a servicer, we are asked not to replace the panel. Thanks for asking. Matt of Martins TV Repair. Update (12/22/2016) IN SOME CASES THE PROBELM CAN BE AN EEPROM IN THE SIGNAL BOARD. THE VIDEO WILL FREEZ WITH A TV LOGO OR MENU. ONCE AGAIN, NEED A BRAND, MODEL NUMBER AND YEAR OF MANUFACTURE. I MAY BE ABLE TO PIN POINT THE PROBLEM. MATT OF MARTINS TV REPAIR.
