Hello everyone,
I am needing a bit of advice. I purchased a second-hand LG C1 from Facebook Marketplace a couple of months ago. It's worked perfectly until yesterday when it briefly lost the picture, flashed a number of different colours made a terrible sound and then refused to turn on. Since then, I've tried resetting it several times by holding down the power button. I get 3 red flashes, then nothing. I've had it unplugged for 12 hours and the problem remains. It has turned on briefly a couple of times, shown a standard start-up screen then turned itself off.
I requested a repair from LG directly yesterday and am awaiting a callback. I obviously have no proof of purchase (I paid via direct transfer to the chap I purchased it from.) I am aware the warranty is non-transferable. I am just wondering if LG will be able to repair it and the sort of costs that might be associated with this. Has anyone else been in this situation before with LG TVs? Does anyone recognise the symptoms of this problem?
