They didn't with my issue. They gave me the phone number for the nearest authorised repair shop. They came and took a look at home and then carted it off for shop repairs.

In my case that failed and Philips are now refunding me.

Could the outlet you're plugging it into be bad, maybe not grounded properly? Just a stab in the dark but try to plug in somewhere else and see if that helps.

In this complicated world, sometimes even the best of us forgets to suggest the simplest thing which may in fact resolve the issue.

Default Check y-sus and x-sus boards

This is a common problem on these plasma TV's. The problem resides in the high voltage boards known as the X and Y Sustain boards.. You can purchase them here for a very reasonable price:
http://www.discount-merchant.com/Y-S...-p/sku9510.htm

The above link is to a Y-SUS board. The X-Sus board is often the 2nd cause of failure and can be found here:
http://www.discount-merchant.com/X-S...-p/sku9509.htm

To test which board is failing, you need to check voltage input to the YSUS board first... Input should be 120V from Power supply, output should be above 250V.. Do this test with XSUS disconnected. IF 250+V exists, then XSUS is damaged. If not, then the YSUS is the faulty part.
