Weak capacitors are a very common thing. I would suspect that is your problem. It could be in the powersupply or Signal Board or in the inverters. Check with a tech!

This TV has no guns. It has a lamp and a color wheel.
Owner reported model number as: lg ru-44sz61d dlp. Pay particular attention to the "dlp" part.

I do not know what is causing the issue unfortunately.

It is a possibility, if the indicator lights are on it definitely means something is wrong in the light engine system, it could be your lamp, ballast, color wheel or dmd board, when it comes to LGs it's most probable that your lamp might go out. You can replaced it to see if it fixes your problem, if it doesn't, there's a chance it might be yoru ballast.

Looking at the television, on the lower right hand side is the ventilation opening. Remove the screws and then remove the cover. Inside the opening is the light bulb holding bracket that has a handle on it. Disconect the power wires (2) going to the bulb, remove the 3 screws holding the metal cover over the bulb and pull it out of opening. Then remove the screws holding the light bulb in place. Very simple and easy to replace.

The blinking should be in a pattern. When the set shutsdown because of a fault, the standby light will blink a code. This code should be a number of blinks followed by a 2-3 second pause then the code again. Please post that count as that will indicate the fault that was detected. Armed with that information, we should be able to provide you with an explanation of what is wrong and possible solutions for fix it.

Thanks,

Most likely you can have 1 or 2 problems.
1! the light is busted and you will have to replace that. You might also need to check your cooler fan bearing as you indicate it makes noise.

Clean the Lens: Use a DVD cleaning disc to clean the lens. If the problem persists, consider professional cleaning. Test Other Discs: Try playing different DVDs to see if the issue occurs consistently. If it's specific to one disc, that disc might be the problem. Check for Updates: Make sure your DVD player's firmware is updated. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for firmware updates. Try a Different TV: Connect your DVD player to a different TV to see if the noise disappears. If it does, the issue might be with your TV. The hum is simply the player trying to read the disc. It can't so, it spits it out. Remember that prolonged use of a malfunctioning DVD player could potentially cause damage. If the problem persists, consider seeking professional repair or replacement
