    42" Philips 42PFL3704D/F7 LCD TV CLICKS BUT WON'T COME ON

    Brought a 42" Philips Flat panel tv. Made in Dec 09. When I hit the power button, it clicks, the white LED light stays on for 8 seconds, then clicks off. The screen itself never comes on at all (not even the "Philips" startup screen) and there is no sound from the speakers. I removed the back and I don't see any bad capacitors. The fuse appears to be good as well. I do hear a VERY slight buzzing noise coming from the power invertor board but I don't know if that is a problem or not. Can someone help? I have a soldering gun but I don't which part needs to be replaced....

          Repair attempt Philips 55OLED804/12
          by Sharpa
          Hello,

          I bought a SH Philips 55OLED804/12 TV with known defect in an attempt to repair it for personal use.

          The symptoms when bought: Philips logo appears then tv turns off

          Things tried so far:

          1. Powering it on: Philips logo shows on the screen, sometimes with some minor artefacts then shuts down. Red status led flickers rapidly into two batches then repeats
          2. Put it in recovery mode by pressing joystick down then plugging it to mains: The tv shows the logo then shows the android animation along with some minor artefacts on the screen...

          Philips 32PFL4901/F8 BA4GF0F0102 2 Not getting standby led
          by alro7779
          Hello, guys!

          The same 32" Philips TV I was having video issues, but now I don't have standby led at all. Someone here shared with me the schematic of the power supply, and checking the voltages, I see right after the resistor R604 I'm getting 1.6 v which is too low for enabling the Gate of the Q601 mosfet (the diagram says 4.2). On the R614 resistor I'm getting 181 V in and 117 V out, then through R603 I'm getting the same 117 V in and 59.9 V out, finally getting the latter voltage in the R604 BUT getting just 1.6 V out, which is the voltage that goes on to the Gate of the Q601...

          Philips 8200 series 65PUS8204/12 stuck at Philips Logo
          by G33RT
          Philips 8200 series 65PUS8204/12 stuck at Philips Logo, it does not reboot it just stays on the logo.

          It does power up when pressing the power button.

          I already try the power button while plugin the plug with no result.
          Also put the latest firmware autorun-TPM191E_R.001.004.100.000.upg on a MBR/FAT32 USB stick at USB port2 with no result either.

          Could this be an PSU or eMMC issue ?

          Philips 42" TV 42PFL3603D/F7 clicks but No LCD Backlight
          by jason123
          Hi folks,
          I'm suspecting the actual CCFL or EFL being bad, just not sure how to test, but would like to confirm.

          TV clicks upon plugging in AC. When I press the PWR ON button, clicks again.
          LED on the Main board comes on green (Assuming some diagnostics), Blue LED on the TCON comes on also when I turn the TV on, but turns off about 30 seconds later.

          3V3 ST is on (3.26 V)
          Standy 3.3 V (off) when I press power button goes to 0.16 V
          12Vssb is 11.75 V (on), 0.18 V (0ff)
          +12Voud is 13.8V (on) ~ 0V off
          -12Voud is -12.4 V (On) ~0V...

          Philips curling iron - is this a common AC cable?
          by double_DD
          Hi all,

          Wife has 2 Philips hair curling irons half defective - after learning how they're supposed to work and testing them, it turned out that both have defective power cables, and both on the same place; broken wires due to wire bending.
          As they were both relatively easy to disassemble, and cables are plugged not soldered (as they can rotate in the handle), I was sure it would be easy to find replacements. But - NO! I'm unable to find anything similar on ebay or Aliexpress.

          Not sure if this is something Philips proprietary, or a standard, but the cable plug...
