I have a philips hts3555 dvd player, and when i plug it in i get no power at all. what could be the problem and how can i fix it. i can always open it and fix it if i knew what to replace.
I just fixed an HTS3555/37 with a no power problem. As one person mentioned, you can hear a ticking sound.
The problem is a diode/rectifier on the power supply board. There was no identifiable number on the board for the part, but it's located just above the "T" in the word "TYPE" in the silk screen notice on the board stating "...REPLACE WITH SAME TYPE FUSE". The original part is an HER104, but I suggest replacing it with a larger diode having 400PIV and 2A rating. I used a 30D4, but any equivalent diode could be used. Proper polarity for the diode is silk screened on the board.
To fix this successfully you should to have some soldering and general electronics repair know-how. Caution: There is in excess of 300V on the power supply board even in its non-working state.
I replaced it as well and it still has no power
Changed the part but the problem remains. Any other suggestion?
I also had the same problem and thanks to jdm7's solution, I could repair it with few bucks! :)
Thank you!

Unit doesn't turn on, I ear a fast clicking sound coming out of the power supply, seems to come from one of the coils on the power supply. The f*** busted 1 month after the warranty expired, serves me right, never will buy philips (MAGNAVOX) again!
I also have the same problem. Has anyone been able to find a fix?
mine has just gone 1 month out of warranty as well.....will never buy again!
I've tried replaceing the diode I saw on another topic for the same system and the dvd player still won't work. It was given to me and the people said they were watching a movie when the power went out, and when it came back on the dvd player would not work. Any other solutions to fix it. I've also replaced a couple of blown capacitors
