Hello. you are not alone, this is a common problem with alot of new lcd and plasma tv's since they operate with high internal voltages the circuts have built in protection. any slight power fualt or short in the circut will cuase a sos or shutdown. may be a number of different reasons or even a shorted fuse.
it needs to be checked you have a power issue.
some models if there is a blinking led the number of blinks indicates the fualty area.
your tv needs service.

hope this helps

47LG70 - PICTURE WENT OUT. STILL HAVE SOUND. HEARD A POPPING NOISE WHEN PICTURE WENT. TV IS ONLY 1 1/2 YEARS OLD. ANY IDEAS WHAT MAY OF HAPPENED.

I have had the same problem off and on with my 47LG70 for months. When the "popping" noise happens, the blue light in the corner stays on, so I know the tv is still on (sometimes I still have sound, sometimes I don't). Sometimes the screen goes black, but other times it is blue. If I turn the tv off then on again, it might stay on for seconds, minutes or hours. It's been very frustrating.

This seemed to happen right after I got my new Comcast box, which came with an HDMI 1.3 cable. I read somewhere online that this tv might not be compatible with that cable, so I unplugged it and am using component cables again. I just did this today, so I don't know if it will work, but so far the tv has been on for 30 minutes with no problems.

I'm pretty ignorant about HDMI compared to component cables. I imagine I will not get as good a picture with the component cables, but I am willing to sacrifice quality if I can just get the darn thing to work. Mine is also only 18 months old.

Hope this helps. If it doesn't, maybe someone else out there can help us both.

42 inch lg tv powers on,goes off after about 30 seconds

I have the same problem, I just spoke with LG Customer service. They had me unplug the power cord, hold down the power button for thirty seconds, plug back in and turn it on, this DID NOT work for me, but maybe it will work for you.

Good Luck! Mine is going to a service shop, maybe what they tell me I can post and it will help you if you have not gotten your tv fixed yet!
