Television problem My Philips 32/pw6517/05 keeps turning itself to standby mode, first for a short time. Now it turns off as soon as you turn it on. Can you offer any advice

The standby light on a Sony television indicates when the television is turned on and operating, or turned off and in "standby" mode. However, this light also serves a secondary function: indicating when there is a problem with the television by flashing. When the standby light begins to flash, there are two reset options that can be performed to resolve whatever issue it's indicating -- a power reset and a factory reset

POWER RESET
1. Turn off your TV

2. Unplug the television from the electrical outlet. If you're using a surge protector or power strip, disconnect the television from the strip itself. Only by disconnecting the power cord from the outlet can you ensure no power reaches the TV during the power cycle.

3. Leave the television without power for at least 60 seconds. This gives the television enough time for all components to power down during the power cycle

4. Plug the television back into the electrical outlet. If you're using a surge protector or power strip, plug the television directly into the wall outlet instead. The surge protector may otherwise interfere with the power-up cycle, especially if it is old or damaged.

5. Turn on the television. If the blinking standby light continues, you'll need to move on to the factory reset process.

FACTORY RESET

1. Turn on the television.

2. Press and hold either the "Reset" or up arrow button on the remote control.

3. Press and release the "Power" button on the front of the television, while keeping the "Reset" or up arrow button on the remote depressed.
4. Release the "Reset" or up arrow button.
5. Allow the television to reset after the "Reset" message appears on the screen.
6. Make no adjustments to the television for at least one minute after the reset has completed. This is to allow the television time to finish auto-configuration and initial set up.
7.Turn off the television and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
8. Wait ten seconds, then plug the television back into the electrical outlet and turn on the TV.
9. Follow all on-screen instructions to complete setup. These are the instructions displayed the first time you set up the television, for configuring channels, menu language, time, display properties and more.

what is the replacement of ic 050rdc2

Problem is in standby power supply or microprocessor area---not the do it yourself repair and likely not economical to repair due to age and brand of set.

Check its mechanism for fault.

Turn the television on and as soon as the screen turns on repeatily press the input button or change the input to whatever input you are using from a source device. As long as you change it to anything other than RGB.

Your television is essentially a big computer monitor with multiple inputs and a tuner. When using your computer and shutting it down the monitor will go in a power save mode. You don't need to shut off your monitor due to this power saving mode. When you power up your computer your monitor automatically turn on.

With the VIZIO and the RGB (computer) input the television will act just like a computer monitor. When you have a computer connected it will power down automatically when you shut off your computer. When you turn your computer on the VIZIO will automatically come out of standby mode. This is through RGB only.

This is normal operation for the VIZIO but can see confusing when nothing is connected to the RGB input. If you change your television input to RGB it will sense no signal on the input and will go into standby mode after about 5 - 10 seconds. If you were to send a signal to the television through RGB it would automatically kick on.

POWER SUPPLY PROBLEM TRY UPGRADE POWER SUPPLY KIT FROM PHILIPS

The HOT transistor is shutting it down. (horizontal output transistor)
it cost about 8.00 for the parts and 100 for the labor.

you will require help from a tech.

problem is build up on the cathodes and when the reach maximum temperature they cause a short between heater and cathodes .also possible g2 and cathodes short circuit.One way is to separate the heater circuit H1,H2 and use a transformer or build a coil on the line output transformer (3 times not shore read up for it) and u will get 6v for the heater.Read this http://www.penders.cwc.net/otcolour.html it will help even if is for other problems. Good luck

Right i had this same problem for ages! i cannot explain why but when i uplugged my DVD player (which was flashing its light at the same time as the tv for some reason) the TV has worked fine.
