That is an error code.
This is an indication that you have a problem on the power
supply section or on the load because of the following reasons :
1. Over Voltage - the regulator
might be cycling on over voltage due to lack of load.
2. Over Current Protection - excessive
load or faulty power supply cycling will
trigger the over current
protection circuit.
3. Leaky Capacitor - a dried up
main filter capacitor or other filter capacitor in the low voltage power supply
that is producing an out-of-regulation condition. A bad filter capacitor on the
output of a series regulator may result in excessive/drop of voltage that
causes the unit not to power up unless isolated.
4. A problem with the
microcontroller, relay or its driver, or standby power supply.
I've suspect that you have #3 problem on the power supply section.
This is not DIY and quite technical so I've advice you to
look for a qualified technician or send it to repair shop to isolate the
problem.
But first check if your unit is under warranty then avail it
because the manufacturer of your unit will fix it for free or with a little charge
only.
Thanks for using fixya.
Please rate my help.
If you were to log on to the
manufacturer's web site, I think you will be pleasantly surprised as
usually one is able to download, by model number, Customer
Instruction Manuals, list
of Dealers for spare part supplies as required.
The information is normally free of
charge.
Or try ebay
I hope this helps.
I had a similar problem with my 42 in Philips LCD HDTV.
Here was the problem. My Power Supply Board had several bad capacitors. I opened my TV (warranty was expired of course) and found four bulged capacitors on the PSB. Many major electronics companies Philips/Magnavox, Sony, Panasonic, and others were sold capacitors that failed in 2-5 years instead of 10-20. The capacitors fail prematurely due to a lack of preservatives. Unfortunately, they were installed in all sorts of devices and cause a wide range of failure problems.
Here are some options for you.
1. Have it fixed by a professional $$$$$$$??????? (Is it under warranty?)
Remember, TVs CONTAIN HIGH VOLTAGE AND CAN KILL YOU! Do this at your own risk.
2. Open your TV and find PSB. (The board that the power cord plugs into) Check for faulty caps. If you find some (bulged or leaking) bad caps replace the entire board. The entire board costs around $250 right now because they are in high demand right now. They can be found online. I would definitely shop around though.
3. Remove and then replace individual faulty caps. This takes some soldering skill.
Caps are inexpensive and if you can take care of it yourself it will save you hundreds.
This may be your problem. If you determine that it might be.
I have a Tip/How TO tutorial on this site that may also help. It gives step by step instructions for replacing caps on PSB #715t2432-2. If this is your board you are in luck. Here is the Link: Fixing the Philips Turns/shuts off on its own problem. I'm working on uploading pictures to help guide people though the process as well. Let me know if I can do anything to help.
Hope this helps and if it does please rate it accordingly. Good luck.
