Panasonic 36" Tau hdtv 108i will act like it's coming on, but when it makes the sound like the tube is coming on, it clicks 2 or 3 times then turns off and won't come back on unless I unplug it then it does the same thing. The fuse is still good since it acts like it's coming on but stops short of having a picture come on.

HDTV's don't have a tube... nor do they have a degausser (a big electromagnet around the face of the tube right behind the front of the TV.) which is actually what you used to hear turning on a CRT device.

Flat screen TV's are either Plasma or LCD technologies... (LED tv's are really LCD tvs with an LED light source rather than electroluminescent panel)

It is a CRT, model CT36HX42F.

Oh... the dinosaur. There still some of those around? those were really more of a Digital monitor rather than a real HDTV...

Unless you are a technician and have the equipment... you won't be fixing this yourself... by the time you bought schematics... and find what died... you could have bought a new Name brand 1080P LCD. LED or Plasma TV... literally. A 36" costs less than $300. And odds are it would cost far more to fix this one.
