Hitachi 50HDA39 Plasma Burnout

Hello, last night I went to turn on my TV and the screen went black. I own a Hitachi 50HDA39. The power turns on and off when plugged in, but no picture or sound. What could be causing this? Thank you !

    This TV cost about $1200, and it isn't under warranty..Unfortunately for me it's a repair i've got to do myself.. I have enough money for parts, and experience with computer building so I think it's possible. I just need someone to direct me to what parts could possibly be replaced and fix it? btw, thanks for all the help guys, I appreciate your help!

SOURCE: Black out?!?!?

I turned on my 55HDS69 a week ago and WAAH-BOOM, No more picture but the sound was fine. The resolution underway at a local repair shop is to replace the upper & lower buffers. The TV is 2 yrs and nine months old. I did not buy the extended warranty as I expected a $3000+ TV to last longer than 3 years especially since my house is like a climate controlled class 40 clean room and teh TV is not over used. The parts are ~$225, The labor is ~$225. Hitcahi would have sent the parts for free had I been within the 2-year window (1 yr regular warranty + 1 yr grace period). It was absolutely silly of me to think HITACHI would do the right thing and send me parts at 2 yrs and 9 months (sarcasm). I can tell you one thing......There is NFW I will ever buy a Hitachi product again and that includes anything even affiliated with Hitachi (inc. imbedded electronics). I will steer every person on the planet away from them in the future. My original plan was to ship the TV to the Hitachi CEO to make a point but the Hitachi folks don't deserve that kind of respect (Unless it blows out again) :(

My 50Hda39 50 in plasma doesn't work through the coaxial cable hook up

Please contact the authrized service center for Hitachi. Sounds like corrupted firmware. Firmware update is necessary, and the firmware to Hitachi is very difficult to get by internet.

Was watching my 50HDA39 Hitachi tv when the sound went, tried everything , what do you suggest ?

Two simple things:

See in menu if for some reason the set has the speakers switched to off or external.

Also see if you have sound when connected to a rear audio/video input with a DVD etc.

Screen went black on my plasma tv

If the menu display isn't coming up either, then the odds are the power supply for the screen is the problem. Most manufactures call this a Backlight Inverter Board. Being that it's only 7 month old, it should still be under warranty by the manufacture. I would try to get it fixed by the warranty first if possible.
