I've been suffering with this issue for over a year. Having to constantly press the power button for like 20mins to finally get sound. Watched your video and decided to give it a go. 9 pound soldering iron and 2 pound for the part. Fantastic!! Thank you. 👍 top bloke 👏 👌
THANK YOU SIR. Had the same exact issue with my similar LG unit, opened it up, sure enough one of the capacitors had the bulge and was blown. Ordered 5 same spec capacitors off amazon for $8, opened the unit, soldered, works perfectly, saved my $400+
@@DominicGichanethankyou for this video, I’ve never been any good at soldering and watching your video not only helped me fix my capacitor issue but the tip of bending the prongs really helped keep it in place and also prompted me to buy one extra capacitor Incase I had any problems. Now my home theatre has a new lease of life thanks to you!
You say the AUX and FM Radio have low volume. Assuming that CD and DVD have normal volume, then the problem might be with the main board.The only remedy will be to replace it. Now this might be a problem because I am 100% sure that all spare parts for this model, HT914S are discontinued. My advice would be to buy another home theater system.
Gichane good work...watched your video my hometheatre sony DZ350 model had same problem..change my capacitor na saa hii iko fiti.Shukran..keep the good work
Hey Dominic what do you think the problem could be for a home theatre that has volume fluctuating on its own, it goes lower on its own and after sometime it goes up and down again. when you turn it off it goes back to normal but after 2 minutes the problem reoccurs. Can you suggest what could be the problem, cheers.
The problem could be one of the following 1. The amplifier IC is going bad and needs replacement. 2. One of your speakers has a short circuit. For problem 2 try disconnecting all speakers and connect only one at a time. If one of your speakers has a problem then the volume will start fluctuating after you connect it. If the problem is not a speaker then its the amplifier IC which is connected to the main board. So the main board needs replacement for problem 1.
Hi Dominic, I bought lg 647 and it had an issue of fading out sound after an hour or so, I went to service center after repairing it the issue continued. I was given another new one again the same problem, so we decided to upgrade to lg 657 which after singing for an hour again it did the same by fading the sound off,what could be the issue?
This simply means that the display PCB is failing. The only remedy is to change it but it may be discontinued. My only solution is to use the remote control.
@@adeniyiadeyemi19 I meant changing the display PCB. It contains the display as well as the buttons. Since you say it keeps on changing, try and have the display PCB cleaned with dry cleaner first.
Good presentation, I have LG DH6430P everything is working on well but the machine is not responding to my remote. I've even bought a new remote but it's not working. What could be the issue?
It is very hard for me to pinpoint the exact problem but it could be one of the following. 1. The main board has a problem 2. The power supply could be faulty. 3. One of your speaker has a short circuit and that is why the unit is turning itself OFF in order to protect the mother board. The first thing you should try is disconnecting all the speakers and see if the problem persists. Take it to a trained technician if the problem is still there.
Hi , your videos are quite informative, keep up the good work. I wanted to know where can I get a motherboard for LG DH6230 model or any similar alternative. I have already shown to a technician and he has advised for a new MB, I am based in UAE, thanks in advance.
You cant but if you connect it to an LG TV with Simplink, then you can use the TVs remote to change FM stations like I did here ua-cam.com/video/wHtn2UJLgOU/v-deo.html
Good day I have a similar issue but I can't see any faulty capacitor.Mine switches itself off after about 30seconds without saying 'reading'.Please help out
Hello dom I same lg device same problem but with different model number dh4530t I am afraid to do this myself And lg egypt will change the whole board and its not available at the moment What could ido?
Hellos brother, thanks for what you do, I have a similar problem, my just goes off without any warning and will not come on again until maybe after 6 hours. please the model No DG6535D - F0 .DNGAFLK. Please help 🙏.
Hi, I have a similar problem but mine stays on for about 5 to 7 seconds before turning off. I noticed that I can switch input if I'm fast enough so it can't be the firmware problem I initially thought it was. I opened it up but didn't notice any swollen capacitor. Please, what else could be the issue? Thanks.
Hi my name is Przemek can You tell me what can fix to very hot board and freeze function on my Lg Bh9540tw, I really was grantedmy question? Greetings from Poland)
I want to ask, can anyone in the topic, there is such a device LGHB976TZW, the receiver itself is dead can not be repaired there is a replacement of the board is needed and I do not find spare parts for it anywhere, the buffer itself from the receiver is connected by air via Bluetooth, the other speakers are all connected to the buffer, respectively, they also do not work . Maybe there is some universal receiver that can turn on the buffer to make the whole system work?
LG product Home Theater sound problem his technical staff says that no part in company.after 5to6 years this product outof So my speakers now what to go.
When i just turn on the HTS and its connected my phone Bluetooth , the sound is so loud and robust. After 5 secs the sound slowly declines and stops at a much lower and softer level.
Dear sir, How much does the mother board cost for LG DH3140S 5.1ch 300 watt. LG local service center is charging me Rs.2806 + service charges extra, can u please suggest me, how to order the motherboard at lesser price.
Updating software only makes sense for Blu-ray devices. You can easily brick your device by updating it manually with software downloaded from the internet.
I have the 2010 5.1 LG surround system with the tall black speakers with blue tint on them , the dvd drive keeps opening it self on its own , i am never clicking on anything , anyone in the comment section know about this issue or how to solve it? thanks.
I have a LG FDB 103 mini DVD system. It works all right except the CD function displayed "Locked" and won't open the tray. Call LG service centre and they had no clues? Nothing in the manual mentions this message. Does anyone have any idea to unlock it.😂
The simple answer is No. If you replaced the word LG with another brand in your Google/UA-cam search query, you might come to the same conclusion about Sony, Samsung etc.

Amazing, man... thank you so much for sharing this! Just fixed my brand new home theather... thought I'd have spent quite some money to fix it.
The best video on youtube. I have a lg ht914s, and the problem is, aux and radio have a poor volume. It's actually very law with zero base
