[QUOTE="71buickfreak, post: 1968596, member: 8373"] Most of the newer TVs don't have power supply fuses anymore. If you got 5 years out of a Philips, then you did pretty good, they have a 40% failure rate within 1 year. That said, it can probably still be fixed if you want to mess with it. A power supply for that TV is likely to cost less than $100. It's still a bit of a gamble without some diagnostics, but if you really like the TV, then your call. If you decide to trash it, holler at me, I will take it and try to fix it. If you want me to try to fix it for you, I will do that as well. I would suggest either a Samsung or a Vizio. For the record, Vizio is actually an American company. They are built in Taiwan and mexico, but still. I REALLY like my Samsung. [/QUOTE]
