    Philips 47PFL7422D/37 tv picture faint

    I have a philips 47PFL7422D/37 that is having some issues. When powered on the tv shows the red led status light. It blinks 6 long and then 3 shorts.

    You say you have a "faint picture" so it is likely a backlight issue, so check the inverter boards. Do you get a flash of the backlights when you first turn on the tv?

    Error 63 (POWER OK). When this error occurs, it means
    that the POWER-OK line did not became “high”. This error
    is only applicable for TV’s with a LCD display.

    Ypu may have a fault on one of the inverter boards or a bad ccfl in the panel (or a poor connection between the ccfl and the inverter)

      I did have a faint picture but now it just shows the 6 blinks with the 3 following.

      Should i check the inverters then? I did replace the inverters because caps on the inverters were bad.

        Where did you get the inverters from? Are you sure they are good?

          The inverter boards were ordered off ebay. Would bad inverter boards cause backlights to be faint or non working?

            Are the backlights just faint or are they not working at all? The inverter boards supply the high voltage to the backlight ccfl's in the panel.

              The backlights are faint. I will update with a picture to show what the tv is doing.

                Philips 58PUS7805/12 showed no picture; after T-Con replacement, shows halo
                by Rauni
                Hello, this is my first post on this forum, and my first attempted to repair a TV.

                My Philips 58PUS7805/12 stopped working recently. It is not that old, about 5 years. We were on a trip for a few days and when we came back, it had stopped working out of a blue (Perhaps our house was hit by a lightning strike? Don't know.)

                Read from a guide that I should test if the screen shows picture with one of the T-Con cables disconnected. Did that, it showed perfect picture (first on left, later on right side).

                Read also that we should test what happens if we...

                Philips 243v5lhsb00 Monitor Picture too bright
                by Schwoin
                Hey everyone,

                the picture on my philips monitor looks way too bright so that black appears grey and colors also seem too bright.



                While i tried to tilt the screen a little bit while it was displaying a picture, i´ve noticed, that there appeared some purple pixels. In the following picture
                you can see them on the top half of the photo.



                At a certain point during the tilting, the picture looked normal again but as soon as i laid it back down, the purple pixels were gone and the picture was bright again.
                ...

                Philips 37pfl560: Yellow picture
                by madyoyo
                HI.

                I have a weird problem with an old Philips 37pfl560 TV i put out of storage: the picture have a noticeable yellow hue, and its not caused by the settings (did a factory reset). I've never seen this before. I will try to get a photo with a real camera, with my phone its hard to see because of automatic white balance, but in real live the whites are really yellow.

                Anyone have an idea of what can cause this? Can CCFL tubes get "warmer" with time? This tv have several analog inputs,so its nice for retrogaming....

                No picture issue in Philips Chassis FTL2.1
                by charlesdutcher
                Hello,
                My Plasma Philips 37inch chassis FTL2.1 does not show picture. It automatically goes into protection mode after 30 seconds (red led blinks at 3Hz)


                Is there someone having any symptom like this? How to fix it?

                Thanks in advance!​

                Philips 50PUS7363/12 Backlight but no picture
                by groomit
                Hi,
                I'm having trouble with above mentioned TV. Bought it defect.
                Picture was heavily compressed around the horizontal axis. Fiddeled and tried different things (mask clock lines, swap T-Con). But no difference.
                Then I identified a heating capacitor on the left hand Signal-PCB (?) below the display. Replaced it by hand soldering. Checked for shorts afterwards. But now the screen stays black.

                I can see backlight, but screen stays black.
                What I've tried:
                - Disconnect right side cable from T-Con -> same (backlight but no pic)
                - Disconnect left side...
