Is it possible to damage a plasma TV by yanking out the composite cables while the TV is on?
I have satellite, and recently I decided to give Cable a shot, just because the HD channels were cheaper. The tech who came to install suffers from bad temper, and while my son was watching TV, the tech reached behind the panel and without turning the power off, he yanked the composite cables out of the inputs, the screen went black. Plasma went in sleep mode but never woke up. Long story short, later that day I plugged the composite cables back in the TV and couldn't get it to turn on.
I know that electronics are sensitive and the TV was in perfect working condition right before this a-hole pulled the cables with the power on.
Is it possible that what he did could have damaged the plasma?
Thanks
