42" Plasma TV Problem

Our Panasonic Viera tv won't turn on. We have unplugged it over night. It was working fine and then after having the tv for 24 hrs it just shut itself off and when we try to turn it on it comes on with a set up menu and whatever channel the cable is set to and stays on for about a second and then the screen goes black and the power button flashes red. We have tried holding the power button down for a couple of seconds and that doesn't help either. Any other help would be wonderful!!! I was playing the wii and had to pause it for a couple minutes. Then I was getting ready to go back to the wii and the TV shut itslef off. :( the TV is was built in april of 2006. Any ideas?

Turn everything off and disconnect from mains.
Wait a few minutes.
Disconnect HDMI cable.
Turn on TV and DVD.
Connect cable.
If this does not work use a cable of different spec.
I had the same problem and now mine works .
Good luck.

1.You may have the magnet of a speaker too close to the TV.
2.Turn off other electrical devices in the house one at a time.
3.Faulty cable.

the problem for 7 blinks is an Interface1.gif board. Had mine fixed yesterday. Apparently there is a glitch in the interface board that sends signals to the television. Basically the glitch shorts out the board and the t.v wont turn on and you will see the power light blink 7 times pause then 7 more. They replaced the board with a new one and updated the software1.gif on the new interface board. It works like new and i couldn't be happier to be watching it again. Hope this helps everyone else out.

Loss of power from power supply. Usually bad power supply.

My Panasonic viera tv will turn on and off but no other buttons work On the remote or on the tv itself

Try unplugging power cord for 10 sec. or for over night. That might be the trick. I did the same trick on a satillite receiver and a DVD player that got stuck like your tv is doing and it worked, doesn't hurt anything to do so. Hope this helps.

I unpluged mine and the light was still blinking when it was unpluged. I thought that was weird. So I pluged it back in and just heald the power button in untill the light went out. It went out within ten seconds. I pushed the power button again and the tv went on. WOOHOO!!! Just needed reset, I guess.

The pictures are mostly green - like instead of black it shows green

It's called Cyan and it's sound like you are having a problem on your D-board. Look for capacitors bulging out and replace first if not then order D-board

Why does my volume on my Panasonic viera plasma TV go up to 24 when I turn it on

Because it is set to do so. Go into the analogue menu and set the sound to a lower level and store it. That should sort that out.

Tv wont turn on< red power light just keeps blinking?

I have the same thing. Just started blinking 10 times. Pretty much had to unplug the unit over night. Could never turn it off and then turn it on again.
This worked for about a week. This morning, tried to turn it on after being unplugged. Still blinks.
Called Panasonic. they attempted a couple solutions, nothing. Suggested authorized repair shop.
