If this helps other people:  I changed the fuses and 6 batteries on the power supply board.  After reading more articles I found out that Plasma TV's that do not have an internal fan for cooling, will prematurly die.(3 - 6 years)  After reading this, I now have a small fan blowing on the back of my TV.  4 days later and my TV is back to normal.
