Philips 37PF9431D/37 No Picture

The TV was working fine when it was last turned off and when it was turned on the next time the power LED only blinks red. I have unplugged the TV for a few minutes and upon plugging it back in the LED goes green, the blinks red in this pattern: ''Blink , pause, Blink Blink, pause, Blink, pause, Blink Blink, pause.... and so on. I cant find the blink codes anywhere on the internet and dont know where the problem stem froms.

While I can't tell you what this particular code means I know from experience that power boards fail frequently commonly on those TVs. Do you hear a clicking of the power supply first on and then off after a few seconds?

There's a guy or a company on eBay that offers trade-in for faulty power supplys, you should check them out:

Search for 37'' Philips in the title or contact them to ask about it. Used to be $99 flat including return shipping.

I have a Philips Plasma tv 42pf5321d/37 with sound but no picture

Thats the great sound of Exploding capacitors on either the power supply board. or another one in there. Now the set is in fault protection. It tried to warn you with the RED blinking LED that there was something amiss by shutting itself down. When you unplugged you reset the error and allowed it to do it again.

Philips lcd 37pf9431d/37

finally got some help from customer service ----
the code flashing one then two red lights is for an upgrade of the software ---- you can go to their website and download a current fix to that problem onto a thumb drive----
\the power problem is caused by a bad power board--- you can replace them for any where from 130-330.00
dont need a service tech - take off cover and easy to replace---can find part on parts store.com for philips televisions --- used is about 130 and new about 330 -- used is a refurbished unit and works just as good as the new one

Problem

power board is bad if it doesnt power up -- the red flashing lights mean that you need to upgrade the software-- you can get a new software upgrade on the website for philips --- use a thumb drive to install it into the television

On philips model 37pf9431d/37 no picture. Red led is blinking once, then twice.

Did you check the diodes on the solder side of the power supply?

Philips 30PW8420/37 TV Won't Turn On

The led code indicates vert failure for one. ( 3 blinks )
The 2 blinks indicates excess beam current of which could be your picture tube or re-adjusting the G2 voltage on the HV transformer which is very critical on philips sets.

Philips lcd 37pf9431d/37

I had the same thing - one long red flash followed by four short red flashes. Plugging and unplugging the power cord had no affect until I also unplugged all the cabled connections to the VCR and DVD player as well. Also, per the manufacturer's instructions, I unplugged the power cord from the surge protector and plugged it into the main wall outlet (which I tried first, but did not finally have success until I cycled the power cord unplugging process with all the cabled connections to the auxilliary devices unplugged as well).
