Panasonic PT-51HX40B We have had this TV for about 4 years, it was manufactured in August of 2000. Today when I tried to turn it on, it is just a black screen and it makes this clicking sound. Any ideas on what it could be and how much it would be to fix it? Thank you.

    My TV had the exact same problem as you said on year ago. I have the Panasonic's authorized service center to repair my TV costing about US$600.00. But now my TV has no picture again only with sound normal. I don't know if I should repair it again. Maybe I will throw the TV as garbage and buy differnent brand of TV, no Panasonic anymore.

    I have the exact same problem. Does anyone have a solution? Also before the screen went blank the tv had a convergence problem, which I believe is caused by a bad chip. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. I wondering if this tv should be trashed?

Panasonic PT-51hx40b projection TV powers off when I try to turn it on

Not sure if the transformer is bad or something on secondary side is pulling the voltage down--if replacing it cured the issue you did good.

If not try to disconnect at source on secondary side to see if with no load the voltage comes up.

Looking for either the xfmr to be bad or something shorted pulling the voltage it creates down.

Panasonic PT-51HX40B turns itself off and has no video, no lights

The buzzing noise that you were earing came from a bad ballast, and because of the bad ballast your lamp must have got out also, and that is were you are getting the burned smel from and also that is why you are no longer geteting any picture either.

So in this case you would have to replace the ballast board and the lamp on your tv set.

The television shuts off automatically

What he may be referring to is caps to stop the coolant from leaking on the curcuit board. One time I had to put a drip pan in my set to stop the overflow. Expect a $300-$450 bill.

Tv wont turn on> is there a reset switch?

reset button can apply when the tv turns on. first the tv has a short circuit and has to be repaired in order to be able to reset the tv to the original settings created in the program as brightness, color etc.
your tv now needs a visit to the workshop first, to turn on.
