There Is No Power In Lg 42ld400 (1yr And 8 Months Old) When Turned On.

One day, when I turned on the TV, I found there is no power coming with it. I opened the back case and check the continuity of the main fuse next to the power socket. It's 0.5 ohms. I also check the pin-connector (wide one), the 5V pin gave a 5.1V signal, but the 12 V pin gave nothing. I don't know where to go to further troubleshoot it.  I appreciate your help.

The fuse is good and the standby 5vc is present going to the main. The 12vdc is only there when the main board send 3.3vdc back to the power board to tell it to activate the run voltages. Chances are the main board is locked up in the boot sequence and will not turn on the set. We force the power supply on by putting two AA batteries in series and put the 3vdc to the power on pin, then verify the run voltages are present (thus proving it's not a power board issue). Then by process of elimination disconnect the plugs to the main to make sure it's not a bad key board, IR receiver board, T-Con and speakers. If when these are disconnected and the set is still basically dead then the main board is the likely culprit.
