Answer Thanks for good image to help me determine what is going on.
It looks to me as though there is a power supply deficiency wherein a voltage regulator or bridge rectifier is not getting high enough voltage to the main display board and associated electronics. It may require you to have the P service tech come to your place for examinations. This set runs quite hot inside and based on your comments the power supply ailment may be temperature/heat related.
Have you done a hard reset? This is done by disconnecting the power cord for at least one full hour before powering it back up. This will sometimes cure a corrupted software code, but it won't do much good where there is a physical or electronic failure. Worth giving it a try, nonetheless.
