Plasma TV Problem


DirtyMagic97

Recommended Posts

So, I've had a 50-inch plasma TV since August of 2007. I have had absolutely no problems with it at all. Now, all of a sudden, whenever I try to power it up after it's been off for a while it doesn't work. It clicks on for a second, and immediately turns off. It started only doing this once or twice, and then it would turn on fine. Now it has gotten to the point where it's 30+ times of clicking on before it stays powered on. Any suggestions?

Get a new TV? Sounds like a possible power supply problem. I had a similar problem with a computer and got the power supply replaced and that fixed it. But I'm guessing at a TV problem.

I hate to say this, but it's it's not covered by a warranty, might be cheaper to buy a new one.

I got a 65" DLP Hi-Def 3D ready TV for 1/2 price and they threw in the stand and shipping for free!

Power supply in computer is way different than a TV

sportstalk -if you bought a Mits DLP, all of them are 3D ready...

DM97 -Unless you know someone who fixes electronics, youre going to have to pay to get a resolve. Is it a major brand? Bring it to an Authorized Service Center and get an estimate, prol'ly going to cost you $40 just for that. A bad power supply shouldnt be too painful, but I dont fix TVs. If you can get it fixed for $400 then thats alot cheaper than buying a new one. I say $400 'cause I just had an LCD that wouldnt turn on, thats what it took to fix it...

Yea, it's a major brand. I just didn't want to hear about how great or horrible this brand is. Hindsight I shouldn't have said plasma either, but I figured it'd get asked eventually. I appreciate the help. I figured it was something with the power supply. I'll look for someone who can fix it.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
