TV problem - need help

Posted by FrankC on March 26, 1999 at 11:01:01:
I have a Pioneer Pro-98 Rear Projection TV. Last night while I was watching TV, the TV automatically shut down with a big thump noise. I could not turn it on with the remote, even though the main power button on the TV was still lit. I had to turn the main power off and back on. This is the second time this month.
The TV is plugged directly into the wall. Could it be a power surge? But the lights didn't flicker.
