6MTH OLD HOTPOINT PLASMA TV SUDDENLY HAS NO PICTURE NO SOUND

I have a as new Hotpoint plasma tv which suddenly lost picture and sound for no apparent reason it is in a bedroom so is not exposed to any harsh enviromental things what should I do??
Elizabeth 1. Hotpoint PLASMA is about 12 months old.
2. Suddenly, when turning on plasma, screen light up but looks like scrambled/fuzzy white snow
3. Have tested source - austar and standard signal is good (checked with another PLASMA).
4. have pressed reset button on remote - nothing happens
5. have pulled the plug, disconnected all cables/input sources and then reconnected. When turning back on 'hotpoint' flashes on screen quite clearly, then picture reverts to scramble/snow...

Any ideas anyone?

Hiya!

Sounds like it's on the wrong input, maybe it's analog tuner. Have you tried changing it's input?

My 2006 manufactured Viore flat screen plasma tv suddenly went blank. Still have sound. Please help!

Read the following:
http://blog.coppelltvrepair.com/2011/02/hp-pl4260n-suddenly-lost-picture-how-to.html

Different TV, but most likely same problem and, in fact, quite possibly literally the same boards, so maybe practically the same TV.
Can't be sure since you haven't posted the model of your Viore.

If you have specific questions, please always include the model number in the question...the model is on a sticker at the back of the TV, right after or below the words "MODEL:" :-)

Plasma tv has a smudged picture and colours are mixed

The TV has a color wheel / Light Engine problem.Light engines cost between $800 and $1500. Cheaper to buy a new TV. Get the extended Warranty. It will pay for itself.
