Default Plasma TV Repair - intermittent audio

HI Folks:

I have a 42" ESA Plasma TV, PDP4294LV1. The picture is fine, but the
audio cuts out. When you turn it on the audio is fine, but after 90
seconds or so the audio dies and then after 15 minutes t comes back on
again. If we watch it for long periods (Sunday afternoon football, it
may last 3 hrs.) but then the audio cuts out again. I called a repaid
service who says it will probably cost $750.00 to repair. New sets can
be purchased for $1,100.00 now, but I am broke and would love to try
to fix it myself.

Has anyone ever tried to buy an audio board (I assume that would be
the problem but have not actually taken it apart to find out) part and
fix a plasma this way???

Thanks,

Steve
