I think I may have worked on one of these once. If you've already replaced all four caps (whether visually bad or not) then list the voltages that you get on the output of this supply.The strong-minded rise to the challenge of their goals,the weak-minded BECOME HATERS

If you type in the model number "47MF437B" on the site below, you can get a service manual for this set. This should help you out a great deal with this problem. Just remember, the caps may have took something out with it.

Re: MAGNAVOX no picture powers LED 47MF437B/37
Thanks for posting that for me. However, being a novice to all this. The picture I see is one VERY VERY difficult to decipher. Any suggestions on where to start. I get the red power LED to light up,
- then press the power button and I get the chirp, chirp chirp. Strange though even though I replaced my bad caps. That same sound happened before I replaced them.
So , the three ne caps changed nothing.
Thanks

Damn, and I used to think of Philips as good.
I opened up a 37PFL7662D/05, not that old. Full of Rubycon and Nichicon. A 32PFLxxxx (forget the full number) had Rubycon, Nichicon and Chemicon... all very good caps.
That power supply looks like they put caps on it that they found in the bin or on the factory floor. Why is one of the three 2200u/35V caps larger?
Ugh, I suppose even good engineering goes to the wayside when bean counters get involved.

I have several working supplies that chirp when power is lost, I think it's possibly to do with the frequency of the switcher changing to keep the voltage stable as the bulk cap discharges. But the chirping when trying to turn on is definitely a problem.
There is a startup cap on this model C957 bottom center.Last edited by tom66; 11-14-2011, 09:29 AM.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: MAGNAVOX no picture powers LED 47MF437B/37
hey, I have managed to get my hands on a repair manual. This is great news!! It would be even better if i could figure out what is what in it. Sorry guys I am really a novice. I can tell you the voltage something is running but I dont know thats a good or bad thing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
