I just got this TV from my work and it is not operational. I poked around inside it with my multimeter seeing if I could get lucky and find obvious damage but was unsuccessful.
I wonder if anybody here has any experience with this TV specifically in determining if It is simply a power supply failure or something worse?
Or any ideas on how I can resurrect this beauty?
Thanks
 
Be aware that the spare parts for the commercial units are going to be priced like it is still a multi-thousand dollar professional (aka "revenue generating") capital good. In other words, you may get lucky and just need to spend a few hundred dollars on a new PSU. Or significant pieces of the imaging sub-system could be compromised ($$).

Service manuals can usually be ordered online, often for as little as $25. This could be money well-spent if it saves you from a money pit. :)

try here for the service manual-you will have to register and subscribe- http://www.television-magazine.co.uk/index.php?sid=a9a63c0eb974e2bf994f772e2ef19e6d
i do repair these units but depending on what has actually failed it may be a scrap set anyway-one major regular failure with this set is due to the ysus or zsus= the drivers failing which if either do the powersupply dies as a result-at 300 pounds plus the cost of yr sustain board and driver(whichever has failed) will usually scrap the set......
