Telly On The Blink - Owner On The Brink

Hi, I hope someone can help.

I have a Panasonic tx-28dk2. Whilst watching it flicked off into stand by mode. The screen when blank and then flicked off into standby.

I tried to turn it back on and the picture flashes as if to turn on for a fraction of a second then goes straight to standby and blank.

I'm guessing its a power surge/short somewhere and the circuits are 'protecting' themselves. Any pointers for a quick fix? Or is it for the knackers yard?

Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
