Panasonic VIERA TC-P50UT50 50-Inch 1080p 600Hz Full HD 3D Plasma TV
Bought this 50" tv in April 2012 and last weekend, during the NFL
playoffs, the screen went black. We tried numerous times to get it back
on by turning the power on and off, but nothing worked. Luckily the TV
has a 1-year warranty, so I called Panasonic and they scheduled a
repairman to come fix the TV on Friday, which was 5 days later but the
soonest they could fit us in. The power light was blinking 8 times red
on and off, which indicates what the issue is - some type of board blew
out.

Well the repairman finally arrived today and he could not fix it since
the part is on backorder; he stated he has had to fix over 10 of these
same units for the same problem in the past month alone. He said it
could be several weeks before they get the part in, and could not
provide a firm date on when it could be fixed. He did leave a loaner
TV, same size 50", but much older molder (picture looks fuzzy).

The tv was working fine up until the screen blew out. From my
discussion with the repair man, you can expect this issue with this
model tv, just better hope it happens before the warranty expires! Good
Luck!

Panasonic has always made good quality products. This TV was no
exception! I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys home theater.
