Peter, Check and see if you have the standby 12v on the cathode of diode D001(part # ERA15-01), D001 is located off of the secondary of transformer T001(standby).If there is no 12v standby voltage, check D001 first. I had a set this past fall that was completely dead from storm damage and this 12v standby voltage was real low. D001 checked OK. Found pins 22 & 61 of IC001(MPU)(#MN1873265T9G) shorted to ground. Also found shorted diode 011( #MA165 or NTE519), the cathode of D011 should hook up to the same trace as the cathode of D001, but after jumper JS012. Replacing IC001 and diode D011, brought the TV back to life, but you couldn't turn the set on or off right, with the power switch. I found defective transistor Q001(#MSD601) in the on/off relay circuit, that solved this problem. Q001 is a printed circuit mounted transistor on the bottom of the chassis. I have the panasonic schematic for this set, but no way of scanning it for you.
