Menu screen comes on and sometimes stays on. Sometimes it goes off and then comes back on.

The light touch buttons come on -- stay on, and you cannot turn on the TV without pushing the power button on the set itself.

Same Problem

-   Menu seems to appear randomly. Sometimes it goes off by itself and some times even if it is switched off and switched back ON it doesn't go away. It does not seem to be a remote problem since I have tried to test it with the TV On/Off button.-   Arun Prakash

-   Blank menu box appears after 2-3 seconds and stays on unless we keep the "rolling" pip scan on the bottom of the screen or adjust anything on the remote. (about a 10 yr old 36" Toshiba) Tried a universal remote without the batteries in the TOSHIBA remote - no change in problem. Since it just a started haven't tried professional service yet.

Ive seen this problem in many off makes and models of tv sets with buttons on the front of the set.. What happens is the plastic bitton that makes contact with the switch inside the set on the PCB will sometimes crack on one side internally and hit the switch and cause the switch to bounch so it seems theres an intermittant problem like the menu comes up if theres any type of vibration or the volume will shoot up and so on.. Now if it seems to do it without walking about the set it could also be something got inside the set like a little liquid or something and the contacks are coroded on the bottom side of the pcv as well as the switch. The best way tell is a look at the PCB at the switch location and with the buttons just hit each one at a time to see if theres a consistancy with all the switches

Sounds like a remote problem. Take off the batteries and see if it will happen again.
If not, open the remote, clean it inside, and look for something loose there...
If it is not the remote, call for service.

This could be a leaky menu switch on the TV.

Turn on the TV, unplug the conrol cable and see if the problem goes away. Obviously you took the back off the TV first.

If so, replace the menu switch.

Every time I turn this TV off, it resets itself. Examples:

1) It brings up the Initial Setup menu
2) The V-CHIP pass code is set to default.
3) Channel memory is wiped.

It does not matter if I turn it Off / On using the remote, or if I do it from the unit itself. All I know, is that this thing is brand new, just purchased within the last 3 hours, and already it is having more trouble than I care to deal with.

I find this troubling. I have come to respect this brand, but lately everything I have gotten has not been worth the space it takes up.

I need to know how to fix it, and I need to know now.

Comment by sadie2, posted on Jan 05, 2008

The setup screen appears each time we turn the TV on. However once I hit the enter button it will disappear. Is there a way to eliminate the setup screen from appearing? This has not happened before

Comment by ronmaysr, posted on Dec 10, 2007

Yes! comes and goes. Good description. I'm on Charter cable in Los osos, Ca. Today, 9 Dec, the black rectangle has text saying http://www.starz.com with various characters following. I've complained to Charter both by email and phone and they say it has to be a problem with my set. Glad to see others are having the same problem only because it means it's not my TV. I can delete the box momentarily by off/on. Another way is by hitting the PIP(picture in picture) button which causes it to momentarily go away. ????

I get the same problem only I get some coding also.
<lid://trg>[t:0][e:20081020T235]

when i hit the select button on the remote, then the menu appears and i can then deselect the menu......until it happens again

Comment by Guest, posted on Nov 12, 2007

The Black menu screen comes on without any legends, and stays until you use a button on the remote, then it disappears for a few minutes, and returns again

Comment by pissed at LG, posted on Nov 03, 2007

Just bought a 42 inch LG LCD TV and my menu screen appears and disappears on it's own. Sometimes it stays for a long period of time others it doesn't. I called service and they said it was not a remote issue and told me my coils were burnt out. I wondered how it could be since I just bought the tv. The repair guy said they don't make tv's the way they used to and ordered the part. 2 weeks later, LG has yet to deliver the part to the service place.
