Problem for Philips 42PF9631D 42 in. Plasma Television

TV will no longer turn on

model no. 50MF231D/37 Only about 3 years old!! Would not turn on, even though green light came on. It would sound like it was about to come on but switch off. After unplugging and plugging back in several times it would come on. Soon it took many times of uplugging and plugging back in before it would come on. Every now and then we would get sound but no picture. Finally stopped trying when after more than 45 minutes of this it would no longer come on.

hi i have the same tv same model number. and it happend the same exact thing. in stead of unpluging it i use a litttle xmas device that has a remote to turn ov is 3 years old, when you getn off. . my t sound, just let it run for like 10 minutes and then shut it off with remote and back on in like 5 seconds. try twice and the picture will come on.

the problem in this tv is the power supply board OR the standby board.

i call a guy locally and he charged me 75 dollars for the diagnosis and them after repair it came to a grand total of 180 dollars. .
it was the power supply. this model does not have a cooling system so it overheats and burns power supply.
in some other places the repair will be almost 400 dollars

look at google or craislist for local service places they are cheaper. and they come to your house so you know is safe.
