LG 47" LCD TV - 47LC7DF Clicking Noise

My TV has a clicking noise when I first turn it on but after about a minute the clicking stops. I also am having problems with the sound. I have an HDMI cable from the cable box to the TV and then two RCA plugs from the Audio Out on the TV to my Samsung home theater system. Sometimes the sound just goes away. I tried connecting two RCA plugs from the cable box directly to the home theater system and the sound works fine.


My LG also clicks when I turn it on and or off, this thing is only 4 days old. Do I need to take it back or what?

    When turning on my LG TV with my ATT&T digital box, the Home menu keeps turning on. After exiting, the home menu continues to turn on.

The old saying is that any issues will likely show up in the 1st 3 days if you run it for 72 hrs. if it dosent fail then it will last.
other than going to the show room and seeing if their unit does the same.
they will likely want to send a service guy to check it out and decide for himself.

Lg 47 ld500 lcd tv wont power on

Not likely as you are hearing the main power relay click and it is after the fuse.

First place to look will be the power supply board inside the set--look for puffed up caps and or check voltages etc.


5_3_2012_2_44_29_pm.jpgcaps should have perfectly flat silver tops with no puffing up on top and no brown material leaking top or bottom.

After perusing the manual, it looks like the TV may not have a network capability...

I have a shadow on my 47" LG LCC7DF HDTV LCD TV

This is usually caused by dirt trapped between the lcd filter layers and appears when the screen is pressed, pressing the layers togehter producing an internal dust smear..This can only be removed by stripping the lcd down and cleaning the filter layers

LG 47LC7DF LCD TV turns off with a pop then turns back on.

Sounds like a overheating issue. Try facing a large fan blowing across the back of the unit and see if this changes anything. If it does, it might help to blow the back out with compressed air as dust might be helping it overheat.

LG 47" LCD TV - 47LC7DF Clicking Noise

I was told that these clicking noises (which happen on my Magnavox LCD too) were due to the "power required" at the internal switch. Seems that the power required to immediately turn on the TV is too much for a standalone household outlet, so it "surges" power in a series to get enough there. Hence, the clicking sounds are actually mini power surges to send more power to the internal circuits to turn the TV on.

If your set is like mine, these noises generally stop after a minute or two, correct?
