logged-in to bump this thread and say thanks for this helpful post! i am not at home right now and parents informed that my 12 year-old dear trusty pana vt20d plasma tv, turned off with a loud sound (wasnt also connected to the ups when i left home, iirc). the tv has had been showing some display-issues since sometime off-and-on so i was mentally somewhat prepared for any eventuality of having to replace it one day finally. but still searched for any solution. the very first and only thread i came across here and didn't have to look beyond it, was this. i'd like to convey here that the quoted number is still working and belongs to mr. raju only. he sent a technician home who opened the tv & diagnosed it, finding fault with its y-board. has taken it to his centre, and given a repair estimate-cost of 13.5k (which is fine with me), *provided* he's able to find the board. i'll try to get in touch with him personally now to know some more details, as well as ask him about a black-band thats now showing permanently at one edge of the picture-display panel of the tv.
