Power light will not shut off.

I have had my TV for 5 years and now I can shut the TV off but the power red light stays on. It also takes a few seconds to come back on when I turn it on with the remote or manually.

Sounds like the main relay is stuck, if you know about tvs and what a relay looks like, you can take the back of and tap it with a screwdriver and it will clear up for a while but return, you will need to replac the relay. If not knowledgable call a technician for a repair.

Picture & sound shuts off

I had a similar problem with my Phillips 42 in. LCD HD TV.

Here's the problem. The Power Supply Board. I opened my TV up(warranty was up of course) and found several bad capacitors. Phillips and several other companies were sold capacitors that although were highly rated failed within 5 years because of a lack of preservatives. All sorts of electronic equipment is now being effected due to these defective capacitors.
Solutions?
1. Take it in and have it fixed
2. Open it up, check the board for faulty capacitors(bulged or leaking) Buy a new Power supply board and install it.
3. Remove PSB, remove faulty capacitors and replace with compatible new ones.

Hope this helps
