Someone recently brought in a Norcent PT4235 plasma TV. It had apparently
"just quit". When I plug it in, the relays click a couple of times like it's
trying to start, and a bit of static flashes on the screen, but that's it.
I looked under the back cover and didn't see any bulged or leaking caps,
nor did I find any obvious shorts in the many high-wattage transistors.
Before I go any further with this, I'd like to know if there are any known
issues that someone could point me to. This set has a massive number of
power supplies in it, and I really don't want to waste several hours on
something that may not be fixable in the first place. This is a very cheap
brand of set (retailed for just $700 new), so I doubt it's worth spending
much time on.
Thanks for any advice.
