Good morning all
I have a tx-43FX550b from March 2019. It has decided to give up. The red light is on, when turning on it flashes a few times and then the red light is off. After around 20 seconds if you press the power button the red light turns on/stays on. The screen does nothing to power up.
I have tried several ways of resetting:
unplug for 60 seconds
unplug and hold power button for 60 seconds
plug in and hold for 20 seconds
plug in and hold power + remote power button for 30 seconds
different wall outlet
this was far from an expensive TV but I am a little dissapointed it has only lasted 22 months.
Before I purchase a new TV are there any last ideas I may try?
Also is it worth contacting Panasonic regarding any potential warranty/good will on reasonable life span of an electronic item? It's worth noting that this model does not even appear on the panasonic website! I assume they smaller screen sizes faall under the big brothers specs/hardware (i.e. the 49" or 55" 550B carries the manual)
Many thanks in advance
