I have a 2.5 year old Panasonic 36" PD50. I've always been a bit of a TV addict so it has had a good amount of use and is an absolutely fantastic television.
However, I switched it on yesterday and after 30 seconds it went dead. No power at all. No standby light, nothing.
Tried changing the fuse but still nothing.
Luckily it has a 5 year warranty and the engineer is coming next Friday to take a look.
Has anyone experienced the same type of problem?
Is it a common fault?
I like to do a bit or research before hand so all opinions welcome.
Had a quick look on this site and 'internal fuses / power supply' seems to be the favourite diagnostic guess.
I just pray it can be fixed because I love the beast and for watching Terrestrial Digital TV I don't think you can beat a good old quality CRT.
Look forward to your replies.
