Picture problem with Maxent Plasma MX-42HPM20
Hello, I have a Maxent MX-42HPM20 plasma tv which I bought in 2006. Just a few minutes ago the picture died. I can see some picture, but it is flashing blue and green randomly. I can hear the sound perfectly fine. This happens no matter what input source is hooked up, and even if the tv is on with no input; it still flashings pixels of blue. Is this a picture capacitor problem? I've emailed Maxent and hopefully they will get back to me. I'd rather fix the problem myself, or buy a new tv (warranty is off).

Very common problem on these sets caused by bad surface mount caps. Check on ebay for a repair kit it's the only place I know where one exists.
