Strange but true story: Verizon FIOS sends me an HD cable box to self-install with my Panasonic plasma TV. The TV was previously working just fine. I can't get the cable box to work, so I call customer service and they reboot the box several times, cable box goes off and on--and so does the TV. Then, suddenly can't get the TV to go on again--not with the remote, not manually. I unplug everything, wait a minute, then plug back in--still nothing. Plasma is dead (and still have no idea if the cable box even works). Verizon custom service says there is nothing their testing and (re)booting of the cable box could have done to the TV. Luckily I still have a few months left on my extended warranty (this is an old 37" ED plasma bought in 2003, now using it in the bedroom).
So, just coincidence that my TV goes on the blink while installing a new cable box? Does this sound at all familiar to anyone? Not sure what to think...
