5 blinks - check the 5v SOS D Board since the set is a plasma.
Your best best is to obtain a quote from an authorised Panasonic service centre on the likely cost to replace that board if required, then you can make a decision afterwards - to either go ahead with the repair, or cut your losses and purchase a new set if the latter option turns out to be cheaper.
Always ask about and insist on extended warranties whenever you buy a new TV such as plasmas. These will cover you against expensive repairs, and having to buy a new one each time the old one breaks down in the future.
These days manufacturers lean toward board replacement in plasma and LCD TVs rather than individual components, as it is quicker and easier to replace a whole board than to try and fix an old faulty one. It's also tidier in terms of layout.

Have tried checking if the Power Plug is fitting tightly in the Power socket? Could be that it is loose?

Hi,
From the symptoms you describe, it seems the high voltage flyback
autotransformer has failed along with the horizontal amplifier (they
are slaved to each other).
Well,
the only way to solve this is to get a technician take a look at the
set, I'm afraid. Repairs could cost upto $100 or more, depending upon
the number of components that need to be replaced,
Since the set is new, it may be worth getting
fixed up. If you decide to do so, call around, as shops have different
rates and different expertise. Many shops are hurting for work because
so many of the smaller sets are never repaired anymore; they are just
thrown out and replaced since the cost of a new set is sometimes as low
as the repair expense.
Hope that helps...Should you have any further questions,
please feel free to post them here.

sounds lick you may have a dry joint in the powers or line o/p stage.
as a rare fault it could be the crt with an intermittant internal s/c. but you would notice the colour was tinted either red, green, or blue in the dark areas of the pic.
SOURCE: I have an old CRT Philips TV. IDTV 100 Hz,
red cathode having more current chack cathod voltages crt is also suspected
SOURCE: TV popped and shut off red light flashes 5 times then pauses
this specific type of TVs flash their standby light if the onboard testing system sniffed out a problem
so, as if your TV is trying to tell you "i have a problem and i need to be serviced"
i hope it goes well for you
:D
