Philips 27PT6441 27" Stereo TV with QuadraSurf Remote and RealFlat Screen
Fix for dead set/blowing fuses
I am an authorized Philips servicer and have been repairing Philips for twenty years.  Most 27\\" televisions that blow the fuse require a thermistor change to avoid surge at turn on which takes out the fuse.  Most 32\\" dead or intermittent start televisions require a \\"horizontal repair kit\\".  The repair kit consists of 5 components that upgrade the horizontal drive circuitry for improved dependability.  The 27\\" televisions are easy to fix.  The 32\\" televisions require shop work.  When we see this problem, we simply remove the chassis and repair it in shop.  Once these usual weaknesses are corrected, the sets are relatively trouble free.
