plasma tv broke
 

was watching it today and i hear what sounded like a light bulb burst, then gave off a burnt toast smell - the picture is now all distorted - anyone know what broke and how much it will be to fix?

go buy a new one

No idea...but you can call a TV repairman out to your house to service and repair it. Last time I called it was a few hundred bucks and they give you a 2 month warranty on their work.

Cheaper than buying a new TV!

what brand is it, if it is sony you get a new one, if it is philips or panasonic, forget it

buy new one...

panasonic th42pwd6 outta warranty

I had to trash mine... The same thing happened and the repairman said it's not fixable. It's best to go with LCD.

Sorry to hear that man!!!!

that sux, plasmas are really expensive to fix

Use your warranty pal.

yeah, i've been reading that plasmas blow out after a couple of years..that's brutal, i will probably get projection tv hdtv..

its out of warranty

how old is it ??


normal warranty is about 24month i think !?

so it was one of the first plasma tvs ?

Got it dec 03, it's a 1 year warranty.. panasonic 42inch TH-42PWD6
