Hi there,

I was wondering whether anyone can help me? I have a Panasonic 32" TV MODEL#TX-W32D4DP. The TV was working fine till a few days ago. I've changed the fuse on the sets plug and also opened it up. When I opened it, a metal wire fell out from the buttons on the front of the TV, which the kids have pushed through. The metal wire is from one of the kids RC cars, they seem to have decided it was better inside the TV rather than part of the remote.
What I think has happened is that the metal wire might have short circuited the TV and the internal fuse may have blown. I've replaced the fuse for the plug but that seems fine to me. What I can't find is where the internal fuse is located. If anyone could point me in the right direction then I'm sure I could replace it quickly with very little fuss. A service manual would be great.

Thanks in advance

Regards:confused:
