LG TV - Power Supply is Hot to the Touch

  • Troubleshooting

The adapter is a device that supplies stable power to the TV, and when the TV is operating, it constantly converts 220VAC power into 19VDC power.
In this process, heat is generated from internal circuit parts (transformer and semiconductor parts).
Accordingly, you may feel that the surface of the adapter is hot.

Causes and symptoms

  • When I touch the adapter while watching TV, it is hot.

Note
If the power plug of the adapter is not fully inserted into the outlet, overheating may occur due to contact failure, so be sure to insert it completely so as to prevent that form of heat.
