Title:

LG TV won't turn on after lightning surge.

Text:

After a lightning hit my area my TV turned off and won’t turn on again. There is no standby light.
I unplugged it and plugged it back in but it didn’t work.
I pressed and held the power button for 30 seconds, waited 1 minute and tried to turn it on but it didn’t.
I opened the tv and checked the fuse, but they were okay.
I checked the standby voltages and they were all good.
I even tried baking the main board but it didn’t work either.
What else can I do besides replacing the main board?
NOTE: I think this issue resulted from the HDMI port because the device connected to this port doesn’t turn on either.
