      Glad you fixed it! Enjoy your TV.

      Another case of "even if it's not bulged, replace it." Especially applicable to cheap capacitors.

      I wonder if the caps on the main board started bloating because the main PSU caps had gone bad? And this was putting excessive ripple across these caps, causing them to bulge before the main PSU caps.

        Well, it was only a matter of time before those 3 Capxon went bad. We have already seen multiple pictures of that group of 3 bloated.

          Hi,

          I am still unable to find the part number for the 1000uf 25v capacitor. If anyone could help with this that would be great. Then hopefully the next time you hear from me it will be my success story

              The Panasonic EEU-FM1E102 should be suitable. They are available from Digi-Key as their stock number P12379-ND.

                  Re: Philips 42PFL5432D/37


                  THE NIGHTMARE CONTINUES !!!!!!!!
                  The t.v. played all night last night so I put the cover back on this morning, hung it back on the wall, and within an hour, IT WENT OUT AGAIN !!!
                  I turned it off and then back on only to get less than an hour, sometimes only a few minutes, before I lose the picture again.
                  So, when the hubby gets home, he helps me hoist the big stupid heavy thing down off the wall, and lay it flat on the entertainment center. I proceed to take everything off the back once again. I inspect all the caps, new and old, nothing is visibly wrong, polarity is correct, no bloating etc. So, I switch it back on, wait for it to go off again, and it plays for over 3 hrs. What the heck is going on?

                  This time however, there are a few things different, when I lose the picture.

                  1. The green light stays on.
                  2. White lights in the back stay on.
                  3. Sound stays on.
                  Any suggestions ????????????? I'm sooo frustrated with this t.v. but am not about to give up. IT'S WAR

                    1) That suggests your main/logic board is working.
                    2) That suggests the inverters are getting 24V DC (that is new Panasonic 1500uF 35V caps are working).
                    3) That suggests your main/logic board is working.

                    New ideas.

                    1) Let's get an overall shot of the main/logic board so it looks like this (top down view). Tbuch saw 3 bad caps on her main/logic while I spotted 4. Maybe there is another on the main/logic board that you are missing?

                    We want the picture composition to be like this with resolution as close to 2000x2000 as possible.

                    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/attach...6&d=1310471174

                    2) This is a shot of the same TV by someone else. Circled in red is the t-con card. Take off the metal shielding and post a picture of it with the same picture composition as above.

                    3) Notice that the t-con card has a connector coming in from the bottom. Reseat this connector. There is a very small possibility that the connector when in the vertical position isn't making 100% contact.

                    The connector may be fragile so be gentle/careful with it.

                    4) Notice that the t-con card is the most northern module. When the TV is vertical and mounted on the wall, it is possible that all the heat rises towards this t-con module and it is failing due to heat and no air circulation. With the cover off and the TV in the horizontal position, heat dissipates in a different pattern versus wall mounted/covers on.

                          Try checking if this connector is fully plugged in. Trace it to the main board and check that side too.

                            Just checked it and the side that you indicated was okay. I traced it and found where it went to the board. Left side popped off when I gave a little tug, then I lost picture. I snapped it back on, picture came back. Tugged it gently again to make sure it's locked and it is. Think that may have been the problem ?
                            Hubby is on his way home & I was thinking about having him help me prop it up to see what happens.

                            BTW, The stupid thing has been on ALL DAY while laying face down on the entertainment center.

                              That would make sense you probably had to remove the connector to solder the replacement caps.

                                If you have the original stand, you can try running it the TV upright with the cover on. See if it runs for 3 hours or so. You can push it near a wall to simulate wall mounting and air flow circulation.

                                  Propped it up against the wall, made it about 10 mins. & the picture went out.
                                  Green light stayed on.
                                  Sound stayed on.
                                  I tilted it forward to check that connection again and it was firmly seated.
                                  Turned it off, then back on, has been playing for about 10 mins. now.

                                    If the picture disappears again, for the next test, try pointing a fan at the back part of the TV while it is propped up against the wall. I just want to see if cooling helps.

                                      Okay, here's a timeline since I propped it up.
                                      ON 4:31 OFF 4:46 (15 mins)
                                      ON 4:46 OFF 4:54 ( 8 mins)
                                      ON 4:59 OFF 5:15 (15 mins)
                                      ON 5:16 OFF 5:23 ( 7 mins)
                                      Will try the fan next, be back shortly.

                                        Okay, I had to run to Wal-Mart & then fix dinner so I turned it off while I was gone. T.V. was off for 2 hrs 23 mins. I've started the next test with t.v. still propped up & fan blowing between it & the wall. Now, I'm just waiting to lose picture. It's been almost an hour & a half.
