    have you changed the fuse in the power cord to start with to make sure its not simply a blown fuse other than that there a plenty of tv repairers that will give free estimates on the repairs.

        Flat panel displays may have internal fuses on the power board inside the unit

            The rest of the time; one of the most common issues with flat pannel TVs is the inverter board. Typical sign is the screen comes live for a split second before it goes blank.

                We repair loads of those TVs at work; PSUs are sh*te (as are Y SUS and drives). Need to find out which PSU is fitted, as there have been three that I know of, and there are two more from later sets that are pin compatible.
