Hi @esmerelda,
Just trying to eliminate a few things
When you turn it on and it doesn’t turn on, does the TV power light change colour at all?
Have you tried turning it on using the Power button on the TV itself to check if it turns on OK?
Given that you have to perform a power reset every time it appears as though the software that controls the TV may be being corrupted somehow.
Here’s an image of the troubleshooting flowchart for the Power up boot check taken from the service manual for the TV.
(click on image to enlarge for better viewing)
You say that the red light is on so it seems that the standby power is OK.
You will notice at step 4 in the procedure it states to re download the software.
As I don’t know where you are, I cannot provide the link for you to get the correct software and the installation instructions. The TV was sold all over the world but because of this there is different software installed depending on the operating conditions prevailing in the various countries. Installing the incorrect software can “brick” the TV so that it will no longer work.
If you provide your country location only I should be able to help you further with this.

I have the same problem .. my Oled tv will only turn on when I unplug it and then wait for a while and plug it back in? I have had a LG recommended service guy come to look at it but hey didn’t know what was wrong with it. I think he thought I was imaging it. I have read comment after comment on lots of different sites and everyone appears to have a similar problem. My tv has been used 10 times and I’m really !#^&@@ off. I think LG should at least have some help to sort this problem with their Oked TVs .

@ach4671 if nothing else they should at least check the powerboard for bad FET or the main board. What model is your TV. How old is it? Used 10times….not covered under warranty?
