Fault to the main power supply regulator section. Either it will be a separate board, or the part of main board. Check and replace damaged component/s at its main power regulator [SMPS] section circuit. Contact any service technician. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts.

It will be best to replace the power supply regulator board as card basis rather than making "Surgery" to it; which usually will make loss for both money and time. Even though you can make it right, it will cost around an amount equal to the cost of a new board; including the cost of (spare parts + service charge) More to say, most of the spare parts to it will be difficult to get from open electronic spare part market. This is true to most of the flat panel TV power supply boards; irrespective of its brand and screen size.

These had issues with the power supply. Capacitors will "vent" causing voltages to run low.

SOURCE: MY PHILIPS MODEL 42PFL3603D/F7 TURNS ON WHEN YOU PLUG THE POWER IN AND THE BUTTONS DO NOT WORK

If the remote works for the set, both it and the buttons on the set go to the same place in these sets.

The Keyboard with the manual buttons may have a lockout feature--it can be locked to prevent children etc from tampering with the controls.

If no function from remote, that could be same issue or another==key board has priority over the remote control.

if all else fails carefully read the owner manual.

SOURCE: Philips 42pfl3603d f7 does not turn on after a power interruption

I would suspect a bad capacitor on the power board. They dont always show any outward sign of being bad. The only way to test is with a ESR meter . I would reccomend replaceing the caps on the power board just to rule that out if you dont have access to test with a ESR meter. You have to keep the uf rating exact on the replacements but the voltages can be higher but not lower than the caps your replacing.

I have a 42PFL3603D/F7, and the tv doesnt turn on right away, it takes about 8 times for it to stay on. Any suggestions

Power supply is in need of repair. Pull out the power supply. You will find transformer (has blue tape). The location of this transformer is T701. Underside of this transformer, pin # EL41 is in need of a resolder.With a small screwdriver, scratch an area next and around this pin. With a hot soldering iron and solder...resolder this pin. Your TV will be fine. There are no capacitors to replace. This is one of the best power supplies built for Philips TVs. Thanks for asking, Matt of Martins TV.
