I had a '96 model 32" panasonic that did the same thing soddered the board eventually I replaced the regulator STK730-xxx and it stayed working in all modes, I have seen bad horz drive transformer connections do it too. but the regualtor replcament was a strange one for me. Some one came in and gave me the TV so I fixed it after a lot of head scraching and a wild guess and gave it to my brother as a house warming present it is still working.
