    Philips Model 42PFL5432/37 Won't Turn On

    First of all, I am new and trying to find my way around this site, so bear with me. My wife and I were watching television last night and the 42" flat screen TV model number 42PFL5432/37 Philips, just went black. The power button went to red (sleep mode). I have used the remote to turn it off and on and even manual operation has no effect. Does anyone have any clues.
    I am retired and quite handy with all other things, I have lots of tools but have never ventured into television repair. Being on a fixed income today has it's own set of circumstances as many of you are aware. Any and all help would be appreciated.

    Thank you in advance for the assistance. Jay

    you should open it up and post clear pictures of the boards. I would first start checking the fuses.

      It's possible it's related to this problem (same model!):
      https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=25256

      Their TV will not turn on at all, has three bad caps. All four main caps should be replaced, as we have previously seen them all fail on this model of PSU. For some reason Philips used rubbish CapXon capacitors. I have replaced more CapXon then any other capacitor make, over 35 capacitors at last count.
      Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
      For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.

        Philips 47pfl6008s wont turn on
        by JorKsX
        Hello. Got my hands on Philips 47pfl6008s/12.
        Problem is that it does not turn on. Last owner said the problem came slowly.
        One day did not respond to remote, had to unplug from AC and then back and it worked. next day had to disconnect 3-4 times before it turned on.
        And then it went into hours of unplugging and replugging until it turned on.
        When I plug AC into tv, it does not respond to "turn on" button or anything else.

        After 10-15minutes the TV starts blinking red LED twice.
        So it blinks twice, then waits 3 seconds, then again twice...
