Not turning on again

try cleaning The air filter in your set. It may be a thermal problem due to a clogged air filter.

Philips 42FD9954

Hey I have the same problem with my 42fd9954/69s. The best solution that I found that works everytime is I have taken the back off my plasma hung it on the wall. Then when I need to turn it on I it starts clicking, so I get my $10 room heater and blow some hot air down the back of the tv from the top and 30 secs later the tv will turn on.

Too easy. Bit dodgy, but I am a uni student!

TV turn off itself and won't turn on

Sounds almost like you have a voltage missing on the power supply board. if its a missing voltage a service manual and a multi meter should help ya find whats missing But a shop repair on a set like this could cost a bit as anything over 27" is a little costoly to fix these days. Only way to see is call and say to your self How old is the set? is it the set you really like do you wanna spend 150 to 225 to repair? it up to you. Good Luck
