google the model of your tv and service parts. most tv the screen is the glass and you need to replace it. if your handy you can see if the same tv shows up on ebay as parts and try a screen swap.

Found on Plasmafix.com.........

Usually plasma TV problems start with the screen. If the plasma screen is broken or crashed, it's not repairable any more . It needs a new plasma screen replacement, which may cost you more then the plasma TV itself. ( new screen run ..2 -3k in real life .) Budget management !!! Protection front screen (glass on front) can be easily replaced and not so expensive as PDP panel behind it. If you have just protection screen damage your screen(PDP panel) will work without any problem . Plasma screen contains - aluminum base and two pieces of glass with gas between them ( gas inside not rechargeable ). Pixels with gas , controlled by small electrodes . Each pixel contains 3 colored sub pixels : they are green, blue and red. Plasma screen works in 2 steps:
--- gas ignition
--- picture development

IGNITION - power supply >logic control > Z or X sustain,> screen
PICTURE DEVELOPMENT - power supply>,video control board or scaler > ,logic control board>y sustain > x sustain > buffer boards >screen



Common problems with plasma panels - electrodes damage inside, change gas parameters, drivers on ribbon connectors damage.
