SCART on your LG TV OLED OLED65C8
The SCART cable is the cable that allows an audio and video connection between your decoder and your television.

You can find them easily in stores.
When you connect the new cable, be careful to turn off the TV and the decoder to avoid handling problems.

There, go to “Image”.
You are in the menu that adjusts the image quality of your LG TV OLED OLED65C8. Go to the saturation gauge.
You may have to go to a sub-menu called “Colors”.
If your image is in black and white, increase the saturation using the left and right directionnal buttons displayed on your LG TV OLED OLED65C8.
If your image is too saturated in color, lower the saturation using the “left” and “right” directional buttons.
Then, if your television is in black and white, go to the “RGB” gauge of your LG TV OLED OLED65C8, which can be divided into several gauges like “R1”, “R2”, “G1”, etc… Increase the gauges until the color is obtained.
It is not necessary to adjust these gauges if your television had the colors saturated. Finally, choose the display mode of the image you prefer for your LG TV OLED OLED65C8.

Capacitors on LG TV OLED OLED65C8

Notably at start-up, an image is displayed with colors that “drool”, then disappears after a little time of use.
If your capacitors work badly when cold, at start-up then, you have to change them. Capacitors are electrical components essential to the start-up of an electronic object.
They are made of an insulation and two metal wires.
Be careful, if you do not feel comfortable with the following procedure, bring yourself closer to an expert who will help you for a reasonable price.
Indeed, this procedure is highly risky as you may get electrocuted. Please unplug the power from your LG TV OLED OLED65C8, and ask a professional to do it if you are not an expert about electricity.
To repair the capacitors, you must go to the back of your LG TV OLED OLED65C8 television and remove the protective cover if the capacitors are not already visible.
When you see them, have a pair of pliers, and separate them from the TV. Next, place the capacitors, which you can buy for the price of bread in a store, in the right place and with the help of a welder, assemble them to your LG TV OLED OLED65C8. Wait a few minutes for the capacitors to cool down.
And now, the colors work again!
