If you have Hitachi model number 50UX58B, 60UX58B, 50UX58K, 60UX58K, 50SBX78B or 60SBX78B and you have the following symptoms you may want to grab a repair kit from www.TvRepairKits.com. They have put together a kit that includes the parts and instructions to fix these models. This is a fairly common problem with the above model numbers. It is typically caused by a blown capacitor and pico fuse. Again, you can get a kit from the above address.
Here are the symptoms...
Primary Symptom: No Audio or Video. Power light will come on briefly then shut off.
Other Possible Symptoms : The green LEDs on the circuit board light up for a few seconds then turn off.
Hope this helps,
It's possible that the Convergence IC's are causing a shutdown of the power supply. Also on this model, there have been problems with: C707 - 1000pf @ 2kv Cermaic Disc Cap (normally a small blue one) Hitachi Part # 0244211. I901 - A STRM6811a Reg Ic and E994 - 2.0 Amp Circuit Protector (Pico Fuse) having a high failure rate. If the 2 amp pico fuse was good, and the capacitor looked OK, then I would check the convergence circuit board. There are many other parts that can also cause shutdown problems, however.
