    I have a Samsung wall mounted plasma screen TV (42").  The picture went off leaving only the sound.  When I turned the TV off then on. (several times over 2 days), I never get a picture.  The red light at the bottom on the bottom right side of the screen does not come on.  The sound is fine!  Can this be fixed or is the TV trash.

    TV has sound/w no picture. Let it stay on for 45 to 60 minutes and turn it off I have a picture. Some times the picture is green, red or blue. Turn the TV of and on again the picture is fine. Sometimes the TV has no sound or picture but 3 flashing lights. Turn it off and on many times there will be sound and no picture and the process is repeated. Any solutions? The TV is about 8 years old.

Please let us know what model Sony you have. You can try unplugging the TV and waiting at least 30 minutes. Plugging in the TV and using the power switch on the TV itself.

No picture but has sound

The problem can be caused by a bad sustain board (Ysus Zsus) , the popping sound is often caused by a capacitor blowing up.
The TV must be taken apart and tested before eventually replacing sustain boards.

Sony FWD50PX2/S 50 in. Plasma Television power problem

It does sound like a power supply problem but that can be misleading because a problem somewhere else in the TV can be "holding down" the power supply. This can usually be determined by using some isolation techniques.
