Wd-60735 will not turn on.... No lights at all

I have a Mitsubishi wd-60735 and it won't turn on any more (there was a bad lightning storm one night). The surge protector and all other electronics are fine. The tv only clicks now when you plug it in. (sounds like a relay) There are no lights on the front of the unit when I plug in and the reset button when pressed clicks but the tv will not power on. I pulled the power board on the back and checked that fuse and it looks to be good. Any ideas on where to look next or what to do?
Thanks

if all it does is click and the lamp is good (no visible damage) this can be a ballast issue (because of the clicking) see below for parts and there is a guide on this site that is really good, its for samsungs but you can get the point... hope this helps!

I think I am going to order a main board in addition to a ballast. Since I am not getting any status lights and no fans on inside the tv I would think maybe the surge came through the coxal cable and possibly fried that board which is why the tv will not even power up...? Going to have to guess at this point. My ohm meter really wasn't that helpful...

Main power supply plus a new ballast should cover all your energy distribution problems... you should have no problems if the malfunction was with the power...
Good Luck! :mrgreen:
