Why does my plasma tv have green and redish lines?

Hi All, I have a 42" Panasonic TH-42PD50U Plasma TV from 2006. After a storm this week the screen has nothing on it but green and redish horizontal lines. I've tried switching the cable box with a working box from another tv. I got the same result, I also tried a wifi box too.. I tried all of the input settings, that's not helping. It is connected via hdmi cable with a is hard wired cable line not wifi from Comcast Cable/Xfinity. I called and had a system reset, not the problem. The other tvs in the house are fine. I disconnected the TV from all sources and the TV screen changed to the ole regular black and white snow. At one point the screen displayed the message “ channel not available “ on a complete blue screen which is normal. I don't want to toss the tv if it's not broke or easily repairable.

ANSWERS:

"Hi @clarice1 ,

Since you didn’t say that there were any Power LED blink error codes presumably the TV is not in Protect mode and that the Power LED changes from red to green as normal.

Here’s the No Picture troubleshooting flowchart from the service manual which may be a good place to start.

Hopefully a start."
