2007 Phillips 50PFP5332D/37

Purchased this cheap because it had a power on /off issue slash clicking / no power. I've read other posts to similar models of this and will appreciate greatly any help. I have an OHM meter and just haven't used it much on circuit boards.

I have done what I hope will be a good job in terms of photography.

I don't see any bulging of caps.
I am going to spend $$ (maybe even $$$) to replace any and all boards; I can follow instructions but some tech terms might be unknown. ty

Disconnect the Ymain, does it still click ? If so what does Vs do ? You need to test voltages first. Alot of work to be done on this set after first repair. You need to recap the Ymain (3* 680uf caps), Xmain (1* 680uf 25v cap) and power supply (all samwha Wl and Wb series caps. Then heatsink the buffer Ics, tighten all screws on the Ymain transistors, resolder all joints on the power supply, possibly add a fan to the Ymain (as Ive done, show in image) then adjust sustain voltages to keep the panel looking good, all after the power supply repair.

Dont give up, these are fucking solid Tv's when working and can last many a year. KEEP PLASMA ALIVE !

Okay: new development. The previous owner or other must have pushed so hard to try and get the HDMI plugged in that both plugs were forced away from the circuit board. The menu and other display things menu settings and such appear on screen, no image problem. When plugged the TV in the two tiny green lights on the tuner board if that's what it's called lit up there was one or two clicks and it shut off. I unplugged it, and plugged it back in again and no worries after that 2 lights on tuner board stayed lit and then I noticed the damage to the HDMI input. I'm looking to replace this board and do you think I should go ahead and replace the power supply board as well? Considering I paid $10 for this unit, it's not an exorbitant expense when the end result would be a perfectly working television.

THe bonus to this being in my basement den: it's going to help heat the room.

Will do. In the meantime: does anyone suggest an online location to buy a replacement main board? I found two sources and wood be looking for another option.

Ebay mainly cheapest place, you could also order in the caps and stuff if you want.

Re: 2007 Phillips 50PFP5332D/37

Ok, I bought both the main and power boards. Is there anything I need to do with them during installation, or are they plug-n-play?
