You have to check the 24vdc power supply to see if it is putting out the voltage or the backlight inverter board has failed. Disconnect the inverter board and see if the 24vdc come back.
If you are going to DIY and have proper tools, electronics knowledge, and know safety precaution then please read on:

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. Kaufman605

TV says format not supported for my fire stick. How do I get a permanent fix so it'll play every time? I have no idea how to upgrade my Philips TV version either. Please help this girl in NC

A little more info may be needed. Does your TV say this as soon as you plug in your firestick or does it say this when you are trying to play a video? If the first hold down rewind "<<" while holding top circle of remote (outer ring) for 15 seconds. It is likely that your TV resolution is out of spec for the Firestick (4k?) and you will need to enable "legacy" (older) resolution mode on the Firestick. If this does not work, there are you You Tube videos on enabling this mode for your Firestick. If the second, then you are trying to play a video with an unsupported video Codec, in which case you would need to find a supported video.

When i turn on my tv it stays on the philips screen. never goes to tv. i tried unplugging it and leaving it unplugged for an hour, no help

You give insufficient information to provide you with a more streamlined solution, so excluse me for being too brief.

What I'd do if I were you is to try and re-flash (update) the firmware in your TV.

if that doesn't help you'll likely need a new main board.

TO update the firmware you'd need the exact model of your Philips. 42PFL5603D has two versions - /F7 and /27.

The update for the first is at
http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?ctn=42PFL5603D/F7&slg=en&scy=US&mid=Link_Software

The second is at
http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?ctn=42PFL5603D/27&slg=en&scy=US&mid=Link_Software

Those are Philips provided and supported pages, so you should be able to find your way around there.

Hope this helps. If it does, please rate it with thumbs up - we need your votes if we can't get your money :-)

I want to remove video from my philips sa3025/37

if you want to remove the media from your player totally just insert the player to your pc, right click on the icon and click format. a window pops up again and click format. but this process will totally erase all the files. if you are unable to view the video file in your player it is of unsupported format(.flv , .vob real and vlc player files) remember most of the players support only .wmv(windows media player files)

Hi LEE,
I just went over the specs on the 42PFL5603D. It doesn't have PIP. I'm sure the guy in the shop was confused with another TV.
There is a software upgrade for that model TV. It wouldn't give you PIP. But, It will fix some of the problems they are have with the TV right now.
Hope I answered your questions.
