Re: Insignia NS-PDP50 plasma turns off after 20 to 30 min

update to plasma
if i leave the back cover off it has run for 30 hours so far
the fan is running but it squeals at start-up so i'm not sure if its cooling properly with the cover on or is the tv just showing its age.

no one ???>?

i have been looking through most all posts for an idea on how to repair this problem. It is a insignia NS-PDP50.
the problem i'm having is i turn on the unit (cold for about 2hrs) and it blinks green for 5 green blinks and a short one and it works fine, volume, picture everything good for the first 30 min or so then turns off with no blinking red light, it just goes to the stand-by red solid light so i turn it on again and all good for only 3 to4 min then turns off again goes back to stand-by,and so on.
i have checked the vs and va voltages and adjusted them within .02v-same result,...

Hello all
I'm in my mid 40's and always trying to fix things (instead of throwing away). electronics is new to me and a challenge i figure if it was put together it must come apart, but sometimes for me it just doesn't work that way... ha ha
