Zenith P50W38 loud pop
Jstein
I would like to get everyones advice on a Zenith flat screen
television. I just received a call from a customer with a Zenith
P50w38 plasma manufactured in 2004. He described the set as having a
very loud popping sound followed by no picture. He stated that when
plugged in, the fan kicks on in the back and the led turns from green
to yellow and then to red. Has anyone come across these types of
symptoms before with this set? What are the approximate costs
associated with a repair like this? I would assume looking for bulged
capacitors or pico-fuse would be a good place to start. I would really
appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks in advance for your help.

Depending upon the type of "pop" heard, it could be an electrolytic cap, an
IC/power transistor, or perhaps even the PDP, though that would more likely
create a sharp "crack". Any of these would probably be fairly easy to
spot... now, the CAUSE maybe not so simple.
