Our Panasonic TX-36PD30 (called TX-86W200A here in Australia) has been an excellent television.

However over the last couple of years it's developed a problem where you can be watching it and the picture will suddenly go black and white.

Picture keeps showing (but sans colour) and sound is fine.

This might happen once or twice a month, which is not a lot but its still annoying.

Only way to fix it is to turn the set off and on, but this must be done at the wall outlet because it wont respond to the remote at all.

I know it's nothing to do with the tuner, because it's never used, its mainly used to play satellite and VHS material through AV5.

I've looked through the PD30 threads but couldnt find a similar problem reported.

Any clues what might be going wrong with it?

Thanks in advance.
