I had the same thing happen a few weeks ago to my zenith 50" plasma tv. I tried to turn it back on with the remote and the power button on the set but the only thing that happened was the led would flash green 3 times and then go back to red. I took it to a repair shop and they called yesterday to tell me it was going to cost $700 to fix it by replacing the power supply. No guarantees either that it will last any longer than the 3 years I've had it for either. But it's still cheaper than replacing it with a new "bigger" tv which is what I will eventually do anyway. I've heard of people looking on ebay for repair parts and doing the repairs themselves but there is no warranty on human error...

PIONEER DIRECTED SERVICE SAYS IT WILL BE BETWEEN $400-600 TO FIX. IT STARTED SHUTTING OFF AFTER I MOVED IT A COUPLE INCHES AND FIXED THE CORD SO OUR NEW PUPPY COULDN'T REACH IT. IT WAS PLUGGED INTO A MONSTER POWER SURGE PROTECTOR AS WELL. IF WE RESET THE POWER, IT WOULD COME BACK ON. THEN IT STARTED SHUTTING OFF MORE AND MORE, MOSTLY WHEN YOU WERE CHANGING CHANNELS. NOW IT WON'T COME ON AT ALL, WE'LL GET A SCREEN THAT SAYS, "STARTING UP, PLEASE WAIT", THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT SHUTS OFF, AND THE RED POWER LIGHT FLASHES EIGHT TIMES. IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS PROBLEM IS A TREND WITH PIONEER TVS, AND I WONDER HOW WIDESPREAD IT ACTUALLY IS? I DIDN'T BUY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, (OF COURSE) BUT I DID GET THE MONSTER. THE TECH SAYS IF IT WAS CAUSED BY A POWER SURGE, HE'LL BE ABLE TO SEE IT. OTHERWISE, I'LL BE GOING BACK TO PIONEER TRYING TO RECOUP THIS OUTRAGEOUS BILL TO FIX A BRAND NEW TV.
