- I just purchased a philips hts3544 and when I plug it up the standby light blinks one time and will not turn on. There is some power getting to the system, because the fan in the back turns on. Not sure what to do. - Guest Feb 20, 2009
- I woke up this morning to return a netflix DVD and the DVD player will not turn on...I unplugged it and replugged still no change. I used the remote still no change. I could see the LED light slightly dim when I hit the power button from the remote...but even pressing the button on the player it just will not turn on.

- I turned my system on this morning heard a faint pop, like a fuse blowing, and now it won't turn on. I have it plugged into a surge protector that is powering my tv and dish dvr and they both work fine.-

Not sure but since you did not indicate wether this wall plug you are using is the same one you are plugging into when placeing on a stand.
I would say that if it is not the same one it would appear to be the only variable common.
Have someone check that outlet it might be wired wrong (if you don't have a tester ) ----(you can buy a line tester at home depot ,it plugs in to wall and has lights that display how plug is wired) -- I am thinking either you have no ground or polarity is backwards. If you have a VOM measure Nuetral to Ground it should be less than 5 VAC, higher than this is a problem.
Since most amps use low voltage switches internally any variation to the ground will vary the switching voltage.
If you are using the same outlet then the above still applies since when you unplug the poor ground may be shorting internally as you remove.
I would inspect the outlet you are using.

I have had this system for almost a week and it was working great...until today. It stopped turning on when I decided to finish hooking it up by connecting the radio antenna. It just stopped working. I have tried to plug it in to other outlets; I have unplugged the ac cord from the unit and plugged it back in; I have tested the outlets to make sure they worked (and they did). Nothing works. I would love to know what the problem is. I did not do anything to damage the unit...I did not even move it.

Mine will not turn on either. Friend of mine had it for 2 years now its dead. I cannot even figure out how this thing comes apart. No help on any websites. Is this player just garbage? And its not the outlet, that is the lamest suggested solution I can think of.
