My Polaroid FLM-3701 Flat Panel Television wont turn on. The red power light wont even turn on, just seems like there is no power getting to the tv. I have tried different outlets and all the basic trouble shooting. I found a few tutorials on other models but none for my model, email me if this is a easy fix I can do from home. Thank you Aaron

    Ok, So I found out after opening up my tv. That my transformer blew, but I cant find out where to buy a new transformer or a whole new power supply.

  • adr530 Apr 27, 2011

    So I found a place that had my tv's parts. ShopJimmy.com, I ordered the new transformer and replaced it myself, It took 5 minutes to pull the old one and put in the new one. Tv works great!

SOURCE: Polaroid LCD

It looks like your power supply might not be providing enough current to get the LCD to power up. This LCD needs about 3 to 4 amps to work properly.

Go to http://www.fixya.com/support/r741402-polaroid_flm_373b_lcd_tv_black_screen. Stiv0 posts the fix at the top, but go down about 10 posts or so and read mine (BlakeFromGa). I have some slight differences to my fix and a list of what you'll need.

More than likely. Most of the components on a camera that size are really really small. Even if you found the exact source replacing the part would be very difficult unless you've got experience and the proper equipment, not to mention to the correct replacement part.

How long ago did you purchase the camera?

Diagram where fuse is in the polaroid flm-3701
There is a fuse on the power supply board. It is labelled F1. It is a small cylinder near the AC connector. The F1 fuse is 5A 250V. How ever, capacitors are more likely to fail on this television.
The Polaroid FLM3701 has a problem with capacitors failing on the power supply board. If enough caps go bad, you will get no power. Not even a power light. Any capacitor that is swollen is bad.

How ever, capacitors are more likely to fail on this television. The Polaroid FLM3701 has a problem with capacitors failing on the power supply board. If enough caps go bad, you will get no power. Not even a power light. Look for swelling in the tall capacitors E8 thru E17 on the left side of the board. Also E6, E7 and E22 can go bad, but they do not swell.

Hi, my LCD Polaroid FLM-3701 went through a power outage and now doesn't get power any more. The power led doesn't show any light. I saw a capacitor repair kit available, and four 680 uF capac
The power supply fuse should be next the the ac input plug on the power supply. It should be a long cylinder type fuse, probably a T6.3AH/250V. You will want to replace those caps ASAP
