I purchased a 50inch Philips plasma television in March 2008. Lately the picture has been giving me problems and is happening more often. The first instance of trouble was the picture not displaying when powering on; only the sound could be heard. In another instance upon powering on only reddish wavy diagonal lines could be seen across the screen. In the latest instance while watching a program there was a half-inch bar across the entire bottom that looked like static. On the leftside of the screen was a vertical orange bar approximately 3 inches wide. The reddish wavy lines were also present across the screen. In each of these instances the television would shut itself off and the blue power light would then flash a series of error codes. First was 3 steady flashes followed by 2 rapid flashes. Then another set was 4 steady flashes followed by 6 rapid flashes. Since its under a year old I believe it should be under warranty. Any ideas what kind of a fix this might take? I dread having to drag that thing somewhere to be repaired. Thank you.
