Anyone Repaired a Panasonic Viera TV?

[Omalley]

I have a 2.5 year old Panasonic plasma screen TV that had been steadily declining for a few weeks. Initially, the white background areas began to display with a pink/purple tint. This week, the TV stopped entirely (no sound/picture). However, the red activity light is working (not blinking).

Anyways, planning to take it apart to see if a simple repair could get it working again. Anyone have any luck fixing this type of issue?

You'd probably have more luck getting an answer on a forum like AVS Forum | Home Theater Discussions And Reviews
Do a search first as it might be a common problem.

Not something I would attempt. Likely very high/deadly voltage inside.

If you are comfortable with working around the several hundred volts present in plasma sets, then I would check the forums on badcaps.net. Also, look at norcal715's channel on youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/norcal715 . You can often find parts for sets at shopjimmy.com .
