My 50' ambilight philips tv wont turn on it just blinks what looks to be a code. HELP

I had the same model with the same code 63 issue. I took the advice of another poster on here and bought some capacitors. The TV's were built with some bad ones. I took the board out of the back of the TV and saw two "bulging" capacitors just as he suspected. I took the board to a local individually owned TV repair shop and he replaced them and checked the rest. Total cost of the repair $27. And the capacitors were $7 of that cost because I bought 10 of them and only needed 2. Great advice!!!! The repairman I called first wanted $125 just for the service call alone!

I have a unit with the same problem. Just cycles on and off repeatedly. Any fix for this yet?

I have the same problem with my tv. It is the same model. The pulling of the plug thing only works a few times. My tv will not turn on at all now. It just blinks the red light. In that code thing. It has been off for two days. Also I can hear the clicking where it sounds like it is trying to turn on and the light does turn green for a few second but then it turns back red and blinks.

I did that and the same thing happens again. It turns on for a second or two and you can here the sound, but before the picture comes on it turns back off and the power light starts blinking red. It looks like it is blinking a code. It blinks 6 times slow and 3 times fast.
