My magnavox 32mf231d will no longer turn on. I heard a loud pop and the tv shut off. no green light, no nothing. I opened the tv and looked at the power supply board and the capasitors didnt look bad. I thought it might have been the fuse so I replaced it and it still doesnt power up.

SOURCE: Magnavox 32mf231d - Just a blinking green light, No Power

I had this problem, but saw other places that it was a cheesy capacitor on the power supply circuit board causing this. I opened it up and took the power supply board out and it was obvious which capacitor was bad...top was bulging and had black stuff on it. It was rated 2200 uF @ 25V...got a new one @ Radio Shack that was 2200 uF @ 35v. Soldered it in (I stink @ soldering, but gave it a shot and it was EZ). Watching the first weekend of college football w/o waiting on a flashing green light for up to an hour so the TV would start! I'm going to try to find the other websites that directed me to this to say THANK YOU...BTW my brother used to have fits with several Magnovox TV's and thier power supplies back in the old tube style TV days. I thought I didn't need to worry about this with an HD flatscreen, but was wrong. I will think twice before buying a Phillips/Magnavox/Funai/whatever else they are again. They have a long list of complaints and I believe a class action lawsuit to refer to about this problem. They should have stepped up and done something!

Price the board first and then decide, I fix these in our shop but do not like or enjoy working on them at all.

Problem with the Philips Magnavox 32MF231D Television for elderly lady. She stated she thought she heard a pop when it stopped working. The power light comes on for a second when turning it on then goes...

There should be power fail with the TV. Unplug the device, open the cover, open the metal cover and take a careful look over the alimentation board- its that board where the alimentation cable goes. You say she heard a sound, so, there should be or some burned element, or, most probably, a inflated/exploded electrolytic capacitor. You have to change all electolits that are inflated, according to their position and polarisation.

TV acts like it is turning on then shuts off then repeat, repeat

When my lamp died the bulb literally exploded. That may be what you heard. Have you check the lamp? If the lamp is ok, the lamp's ballast or power supply might have blown.

32 in Magnavox tv model 32MF231D/37

An earlier post of the smaller model of this with the same problem said to remove the metal cover over the power supply.

I have the 26MF231D and it worked great afterward (even though you can't mount it)

Here is how you remove the cover.
