Hello,
I must say that I have limited (if any) knowledge of electronics. I recently tried to turn on our plasma and noticed that the tv would begin to light up (or prime as I have read) and then shut off. I tried several times but got the same results. I checked for local repair shops and found one with outstanding reviews. I took the TV and paid a diagnostic fee. I was told that the TV has a bad power supply. Since the repair facility wanted $375 to repair it ($200 for the power supply board and $175 for labor) I declined and picked it up. It is now great wall art since our home is currently on the market.
I began searching for replacement power supply boards and noticed that I could easily purchase one for $65. My question is how difficult is this part to replace. As I stated early on in my post, I have very limited electronics knowledge. I am quite the do it yourselfer when it comes to any other projects. Since the tv is useless as it sits, what are the chances that I could replace this part myself? Please use specifics on the install. Thanks so much!
