The light engine is located inside the set I think?

As for a manual? I can tell you LG manuals are not the best place to obtain part numbers. There are too many versions of sets out there today, the best place to obtain the correct part number is from LG itself.

Another thing. I've never changed an engine in the 44" LCD sets but if those are anything like their 52" DLP sets, the engine doesn't come as a single piece. It comes in pieces that must be mated together. The alignments necessary after re-installation are not for in-experienced, non-technical persons. It is very difficult and time consuming even for a trained tech.
