Philips 41JP20 dead
Still have this Philips 41JP20 awaiting my attention, replaced the BUW12A
and HOT but the power supply still doesn't fire up, just makes a faint buzz then the relay clicks again and the orange and red LED's come on too. Standby voltage is there, not even a peep out of the other outputs. Any insight as to why the power supply isn't starting up? I thought I checked all the semi's but maybe I missed something. |

What about resistors, caps? This can stop the whole show. Also philips used neon blue caps, they go bad. I'm not famillar with this philips chassis, what kind of this SMPS topology? One for standby only, one for main run power? Or same SMPS for both standby & run? Or uses regular standby transformer to power micro in turn trips the SMPS to run when commanded to turn on? Cheers, Wizard |

Cheers, Wizard I thought I checked all the lytics for ESR, replaced a few that were questionable. It uses a normal 60 hz transformer to provide the standby voltage. |

James,
Look for a 100uf 200 volt lytic near the relay and replace it. Also look for a 300k and 330 k resistor pair in series near the middle of the board. You could also be facing a bad flyback.

I have also seen a bad zener diode cause this; can't remember the location # at
the moment; it's located in the "do not service" area of the P.S. |

Had to pull all three tubes and clean out the coolant chambers then refill with fresh coolant, cleaned all the optics and put it back together, the picture looks really good now. Thanks for all the tips. |

James,
Glad to hear that you got it fixed. Enjoy, Bill Jr "James Sweet" wrote in message newsdb6c.33038$Cb.546243@attbi_s51... "Bill Jr" wrote in message . ..

James,
Do a search for a Philips PM4S replacement remote. I found one at Vance-Baldwin for $16.60 plus shipping of course.
