Humming noise with Panasonic HDTV?????

Question

My Panasonic HDTV was working fine, no problems. Then suddenly i turn it on one day and it creates a low humming sound. This happened after having left the TV on for over 10 hours. Is it possible the heat caused the hum and I should just allow the Tv to cool down?

Any help would be appreciated

Answer 1

No it has nothing to do with the heat. If you live in an high altitude area it can cause a plasma to hum. Another thing you can try if you don't live in an area like that is using a surge protector. The thing is your power outlet could be sending what's called "Dirty Electricity" to your tv that could be causing it to hum. I would recommend something that does "power filtering" like a Panamax surge or a Monster surge. So that you get clean power to the tv.
