Mitsubishi big screen no picture... but sound?

have a mitsibishi vs-4561 big screen, a week ago started noticing flahes flahes of black and green lines at bottom of screen. very small & quick blips. turn on tv other day there was no picture just sound. however all the menu displays still come up, like volume bar, menu to set video/audio preferences. channel number and input source still appear if a change channels what could it be

Answer:
Mitsubishi sets are noted for their capacitors failing. Especially in the P-I-P section. It sounds like your PIP module is flaked out on you, since you still have OSD. I have repaired many sets with this trouble.
check the cable between your cable box/antenna. there probably is a loose connection.
You did not say what your input source is, all the items that appear are internally generated by the tv, have you tried your dvd, or vhs player? I suggest this because many of the new tv's may rec. pic input from one source and not another indicating that a particular board has failed. for example you may be feeding a pic from a sat. rec. thru HDMI and it works while if you try feeding the signal thru a coaxial cable it may not work indicating that the coaxial cable connection board has failed. since the set has several input options you should try them all. This would isolate the source of the problem. As with the older analog sets the tuner might fail to let you change channels, while if you use a VHS as a tuner you can still get the set to function.

Good luck
