Front Lounge TV acting up

We moved today about 380 miles.

Now our Front Lounge LG TV is acting up, it keeps turning itself on and off.
Removed the batteries from all the remotes, it still is turning itself in and off.
I unplugged it for about a half hour and then plugged it back in, worked for about 15 minutes, now it is doing the same thing again.

Anybody heard of this scenario???

In our previous SOB it would turn itself on at 2am daily, warranty replaced as it was some sort of internal timer that could not be accessed by user?? Just a thought, you may go to menu to see if timer has been inadvertently set.

It is doing it very rapidly, turning on and off and back on every 15 seconds or so, then sometimes it will stay on for 15 minutes then starts cycling on and off every 5 to 15 seconds

The same thing happened to our bedroom tv shortly after delivery. It turned out that when the tv was installed the hdmi cable, which was plugged into the back port of the tv, was pinched causing the circuit board to crack. Any slight movement in the rig during operation causes the tv to turn on and off at will. Extremely annoying. Tv was replaced with a new one and the hdmi cable installed in the side port of tv. However they will need a longer hdmi cable to reach from the wall connection to the side port on the tv.

Make sure your neighbor isn't holding his remote looking out the window grinning

I removed the TV and checked all the cables.
None seem pinched or tight, all are plugged in good.

Moving it to the side HDMI port is not an option for us since the Satellite receiver is plugged into the side port.

Sounds just like what ours is doing, I will talk to RW on Monday to find out what to do to resolve.
