How to fix a 55 inch tv without a repairman?

So we rent a second story apartment in a house that we realized yesterday needs a new roof (landlords fault). We have been skimping and not paying for renters insurance I had it for years and never needed it so when we rented this place we chose not to get it (our fault). Yesterday our ceiling started leaking in a couple of spots the bathroom, a corner of the dining room, and right over the top of our 55 inch widescreen tv (nobody's fault). My husband noticed the dripping above the tv shortly after it started and the tv at this time was on and working fine, he moved the tv out of the way and for some reason moving the tv was the wrong move because when he moved it it stopped working. He tried setting a fan behind the tv to dry it out but it doesn't seem to be making a difference if you turn it on the screen turns light pink then it blinks back off. I will if I have to call in a repairman and pay cash or replace the tv but I just want to believe their is something else I can do.

Update:

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also if you know someone who fixes televisions in Michigan around Lansing I would accepts referrals too.

    OK FIRST..Unplug the TV, run the fan with the back panel OFF and the fan pointed into the chassis....

    Wait a week, see if the PINK is still there....

    If it isn't....Great!

    Your question itself is complicated to respond to once you think approximately 3-D out of the photograph. ALL impressive-tier instruments incorporate 3-D as a time-honored decision. not in hassle-free terms can this be seen as an advantage for some human beings, the hardware interior the television would be greater effective than hassle-free 2d HDTV. terrific fifty 5" LED = LG LM9600 (calibrated) terrific fifty 5" Plasma = Panasonic VT50.
