Plasmas are really prone to overheating, resulting in caps blowing. If you're comfortable, sometimes the only solution (besides buying a new TV or paying through the nose for repairs) is to open up the back and snip and solder on new caps, or sometimes replace the mainboard (usually ~60$ on ebay).

You have to be comfortable with electronics soldering however.
