I already unplugged and put in another outlet. Picture came on for about 3 seconds and then lost.

If you're handy enough you could check for a blown fuse. Unplug TV of course. You'll usually find the fuse somewhere near to where the mains voltage cable is soldered into the motherboard. A lot of TVs are fitted with a fuse which is JUST enough to handle the job and after 5 years of continuous on and off that fuse heats up and cools down. Repeat that over the years and the fuse can simply fracture. You'll need a simple ohm meter to check as these fuses may look OK but are open circuit. If the glass in the fuse is black then it's not fatigue and time to call a tech. Make sure you replace the fuse with the same value. BMW

I had the same exact problem.
I removed the bulb and cleaned it. There is a small screen at the top of the bulb and it was covered with dust. Once it was cleaned I replaced the bulb and it solved the problem.
Thanks to those who posted the solutions

Could be the tuner or voltage going to the turner.
Any diagnostics events will be stored into NVM (non-volatile memory) and is useful for troubleshooting.
The diagnostics page can be accessed by pressing the following buttons on the remote control in sequence:
“DISPLAY’, “5”, “VOL-”, “POWER”.
The numbers on the left indicate how many times the timer LED flashed, which designates the probable cause of
the event.

this could be one of two problem. first, check if you have back light. If you do then the problem is with the M/B. Second, if you don't have back light then the inverter is bad and needs to be replace.
