Whenever our 1st generation Sony plasma took a trip south the tech turned it on for a minute and immediately recommended a new TV (part of our extended warranty agreement) ... I didn't argue.

Rick maybe the guy has seen sooo many of these Sharp LCD TVs do this he knows beforehand what the issue is prior to turning the TV on?
