Panasonic ST50 Buzzing, glue fix?

DarkLordStevoII · 22 Sep 2019 at 11:23

My 7 year old Panasonic plasma has always had a slight buzz during bright scenes, but it recently seems to have increased from barely audible to angry wasp in jar. I have looked up a few (old) discussion regarding the issue and tightening all the screws and gluing/gelling up capacitors and other offending components, seems to be the way to go. Can anyone recommend some none conducting, idiot proof product to splurge in the back of my TV?

Thanks

Some high temp silicone stuff should do.

Don’t use anything that will melt like glue sticks.

I'm sure there are some replacement screws also that reduce vibration. I had a 50G30 with exactly the same problem, removed the back panel, replaced it and the buzzing stopped without touching anything inside.

Time for an upgrade you should be able to sell it for a few quid and take the plunge into 4k
