thanks DOCTOR VIDEO

Bad flyback you can try adjusting the screen contorl on the flyback this is what goes bad on most of them.

youve most likely have a thremal issue that causes the set to **** down when operational temperature is reached possibly a regulator tarnsistor .

This should be the 'camcorder' position. It is after Video 2 as you go through the channels.

unless you are a technical electrition its impossible to tell you how to fix it, botom line you will need to take it to a repair store to be fixed , sorry i cant be more helpful

if you don't have experience on electronic troubleshooting then i doubt that you could fix it.
although it could be simple as to a blown fuse, there are other diagnosis to be done.
i suggest you bring it to a reliable service center/person, have it diagnosed and repaired, if you wish not to mess with it and make greater damage to your tv.

its a high voltage problem. i suggest you bring it to a qualified service technician.

After some quick checks, it looks like, unfortunately, you have a lemon of a TV. First some basic info. All late model CRT TV's use the high voltage power supply to create all of the voltages it needs to operate. Which saves on parts & costs. The high voltage transformer used in these power supply's can be susceptible to failures & apparently your model is more prone to this than most.

When you said the picture started to distort, what exactly did it look like? If the transformer has not failed then maybe 1 of the power supply filter capacitors is shorted & causing the power supply to shut down. (a safety feature) A local TV repair shop should be able to determine the problem within an hour.

1 thing to try before calling someone, is to see whether the set needs a software reset. Unplug the TV for about 4 hours & then plug it back in. If the problem still exists, then you will need to contact the repair shop.

I wish I could help you but you will more than likely have to take your set to an authorized service center. Philips doesn't like to send service manuals to anyone except their service centers. Stargazer
