Line faults & possible causes to LCD & Plasma screen are given with illustrations. You can get an idea about the fault to an extent. Faults to all LCD & Plasma screen are similar, irrespective of its brand and screen size.

Please tell me whats the make and model of the tv so that I can help you out. This is because the cause of the problem varies with the type of the tv(LCD, Plasma, Projection tv etc.,)

• Turn off the TV
• Apply gently pressure and use a soft lint free cloth to remove smudges and fingerprint. (avoid paper towels/toilet paper/tissues) as they can end up scratching the screen
• You can use small amounts of distilled water or non-ammonia based cleaning products, do NOTspray directly onto screen instead lightly moisten the cloth and follow up with a dry cloth * ammonia and alcohol based products can often haze the screen often dimming the display
• There are special products you can purchase that provide anti-static properties to help prevent the dust from accumulating. Check you local electronics outlet if your interested or go to the link below from amazon.

change the tv main board

not paper towel!!!! use a old t shirt or new diaper spray plain water or glass cleaner on your rag not tv

For what it's worth, you can download the official Sanyo repair manual for this TV (DP42746) at http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/43343/sanyo_dp42746.html. I uploaded it here when I had some issues with this TV last year. The solution almost always seems to be to replace the Power Board and the Upper and Lower Y Buffers. The parts and costs (from Sanyo in July 2009) are listed below (NOTE: Sanyo will not ship these parts to anyone but a repair shop):
1. V4 Y-Main (Y-Sustain) Circuit Board (Part # LJ92-01200A, Alt Part # LJ41-02759A) - USD $139.00
2. Upper Y-Buffer Circuit Board (Part # LJ92-01202A, Alt Part # LJ41-02760) - USD $64.00
3. Lower Y-Buffer Circuit Board (Part # LJ92-01203A, Alt Part # LJ41-02761A) - USD $64.00
Sanyo charges USD $10.50 for shipping, which brings the total cost for parts to USD $277.50. From my research, a shop would probably charge between USD $500 and $700 to do this repair. FYI - there is a class action lawsuit pending against Sanyo for this issue. The V4 Y-Main (Y-Sustain) Circuit Boards fail VERY frequently in this TV due to overheating. Hope this helps.

my Sanyo DP50747 plasma tv won't turn on. I tried plugging it up to another outlet, but still no power.
