This has to be done very carefully. Set has to be laid face down on a padded surface that supports the entire frame around the front screen.
One wrong move or downwards pressure in this position and the display will be destroyed or damaged beyond repair.
On a 50 inch it is a two person job----with set safely down--remove base if there---then the 40 plus screws--noting different thread types and lengths.
Careful is the KEY word here.

Philips.com should have a software upgrade for your TV to fix the problem.
This is a common problem with Philips TVs and they have made upgrade software to address the problem.
Go to the Philips web site and all the procedures for download to your TV will be there. The only thing you will need to this is a USB memory stick. Download should be FREE.

Hi, Usually any "Pops" are an Electrolytic Capacitor "blowing up" quite literally, or "Gassing" as it is called. This happens due to some sort of power problem. Capacitors hate AC Voltage and Current, and Heat and Over Voltage. All of which, I have no doubt it was exposed to before it went "Pop" This is only a symptom of a far greater problem, to come, no doubt, soon, the rest of the set will fail too. Please DO NOT USE. this set any more, you risk fire or explosion or both. If you MUST use it at least unplug at bed time. Theses days home repair except for the most rudimentary problem is not feasible, setting aside the safety aspect. In my professional opinion, I would recommend, that you get a "Quote" for repair from a Philips Authorised Service Agent This is very important, that you contact a Philips head office and ask for a referral. This way at least you can make a decision to repair or replace.

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 ofcourse) and found four bulged capacitors. Many electronics companies were sold capacitors that failed in 2-5 yearsinstead of 10-20. The capacitors failprematurely due to a lack of preservatives. Unfortunately, they were installed in allsorts of devices and cause a wide range of failure problems.
Here are some options for you.
1. Have it fixed by a professional $$$$$$$???????
2. Open your TV and find PSB. Checkfor faulty caps. If you find some (bulgedor leaking) bad caps replace the entire board. The entire board costs around $250 right nowbecause they are in high demand right now. They can be found at tv-part.com but supplies are limited.
3. Remove and then replace individual faulty caps. This takes some soldering skill.
Caps are inexpensive and if you can take care of it yourselfit will save you hundreds.
I have a tip/tutorialon this site that may also help. Itgives step by step instructions for replacing caps on PSB #715t2432-2. If this is your board you are in luck. It's called: Fixing the Philips Turns/shutsoff on its own problem. I'mworking on uploading pictures to help guide people though the process aswell. Let me know if I can do anythingto help.
Hope this helps and Good luck.
