Measure the connector from the logic board to the power supply the second pin from the left it will say Vs_ On if the set has 3.1 volts the problem is the SSB or the logic board. On the logic board there should be a solid led and a flashing led that shown that data id flowing and the problem is the SSB. The SSB is easy to replace just remember what you tokk loose and from where. You probely will save money that way. If the set is in warranty or just out of warranty contact Philips 1-888-744-5477 and see what they can do first.

bad power circuit may cause such problems. may be power ic or bad capacitors.....

Those blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices. http://electro-medical.blogspot.com/ http://homenol.blogspot.com/ http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty. Search the site by type in the "brand name" to your device, in the "Search box at the top right of the display window of the Homepage" to get gathered related posts. Counting of number of blinks to Philips TVs is entirely different to that of other brand TVs. It is not a direct count procedure. The site have details about how to count the number of LED blinks [Fault Codes] to Philips brand TVs are given; along with details of the faulty circuit location.

It sounds like you have a problem were the Y sus/buffers board (the one on the left ) has issues with the connectors to the screen need unpluging cleaning and putting back

I have the same tv and the fix was the power supply board that had 5 capacitors that were blown. there was a black goo on the top of the capacitors. The power supply board is in the middle top of the tv once you pull the back off. replace the bad caps and you should be back in business. My 50 inch plasma fix costed $5 in parts (5 capacitors) and $9 in shipping fees. Much better than the repair shop. If you know someone who can solder for you or if you can do it yourself, it's very easy to fix.

its the capacitor inside the tv open it up and you should see atleast 1 capacitor which has bulged ( looks like glue coming out of it ) usually a 3000 ~ you can replace these yourself no problem for around 10p each but i do warn you there is a chance you could lose your built in freeview in doing so!

Well if the power supply board alone is making the same then clearly the problem is in it. I can't tell you remotely what makes the noise and why is it shutting down. I've seen them make noise because of a shorted diode in the PFC circuit, because of a failed capacitor in the Vs or standby circuit, because of a cracked solder joint in some of the large transformers or because of a worn out filter capacitors. Oh, and because of a failing thermistor at the board's input, but that's usually accompanied with smoke and is easy to detect, plus it only happens once or at most twice. If course it may as well be something else. The best I can do is offer you to send the board to us for inspection and repair. This should be the board and the repair service we offer for it: http://www.coppelltvrepair.com/p/215/lj92-01511a-996510019427-power-supply-board-philips-50pfp5332d-service-repair Hope that helps!

The experience I have seen with this model is on the power supply module, near the lower center of the board, check for two swollen 3300Mfd 10V capacitors, change these two parts and you might correct the issue. The board is perhaps part number LJ44-00108.

No place to put your RGB on the PC or on the TV? Your TV should have an RGB port for sure. The "green" may be yellow instead.
Your PC will need a video card installed that features a RGB output to make it work from there.
Some PCs use DVI out instead. You would then need a DVI/HDMI converter to plug into your TV's HDMI port and then to the PC.

Go into tv menu and do reset. That is if you want to reset every thing. i'm not sure what you think rebooting is?

hi, capacitors, they usually swell up or a shorted diode/ transistor and may be a bad dry solder joint, good luck with the repair regards shaun

Sounds like a power board has blown inside the set. Take it to a repair shop.
