My experiance is to not put money into a TV that is over ten years old. TVs stress out their electronic components worse than almost any other electronic product. After 10 years, there are so many parts that are ready to fail that your are probably wasting your money trying to get any more life out of it.
Another option is to wholesale replace the main board by sending it to Module Exchange at 972-298-1212, or PTS Electronics 800-844-7871 ptscorp.com.
Be careful on buying a new one though. Often times, these new technology ones are much worse. Always Google the model number of the set you intend to buy and add the word 'repair' or 'complaint' to see if it is one of the many models that are customer service nightmares being produced by even the most reputable companies today.
Hope ya fix it!

The vertical driver is starting to fail. It's the device that supplies the height of the picture. Hence the name. I do not have a part number for this item. You would need access to a service manual. Is the model # correct? I did a quick search & haven't found anyone who recognizes that #. Not even Panasonic. If the model is correct than Panasonic no longer supports your TV. There maybe a repair shop with a copy of the service manual somewhere in the US. Gaining access to manual for the parts list then finding a suitable replacement part could be quite challenging. The fact the unit is 15 yrs old means that you've more more than received your money's worth. With the advent of digital broadcasting starting next year, its probably time to seriously consider upgrading.

How to connect Panasonic TC-P50C2 to Bose Wave?

Connecting the audio between the cable box and the TV is easy, if you are using one of the composite or component video inputs. Just plug in the associated R/L audio jacks in a line with the video input. If you are using the HDMI input, that carries sound on the HDMI cable. You don't need to connect the audio out of the cable box to the TC-P50C2. See the connections page of the TV manual here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/246619/Panasonic-Viera-Tc-P50c2.html?page=12#manual . Then set the TV to this input.

However, the Panasonic TC-P50C2 does not have an analog audio output. You could try connecting the cable box RCA audio out to the Bose Wave system. You will need a RCA M/M to 3.5 mm adapter cable. (Alternatively a RCA M/M to 3.5 mm F converter and an AUX (3.5mm M/M cable or a 3.5mm M to RCA F/F adapter with a standard RCA audio cable will work between the cable box and the Bose ) This may not have the audio sync correctly with the video.

The alternative is to use a digital to analog audio converter and one of the above RCA to 3.5 mm solutions. Get an converter that has an optical digital audio input and an optical audio cable (Toslink). (The cable isn't always sold with the converter.) (https://www.manualslib.com/manual/246619/Panasonic-Viera-Tc-P50c2.html?page=50#manual ) See some converters here: https://www.amazon.com/DA-Converters/b?ie=UTF8&node=3224445011 .

I hope this helps.

Panasonic tc-l32x2x

I can very well understand how disappointing this is. But no company can ever do a free replacement for such causes. You need to have pest control in the house as the cockroaches can damage any electronic equipment from microwave oven to audio/video equipment in the house. If you do not do that, it will be Panasonic today and some other brand tomorrow.
