Panasonic PT-50DL54J	Can't Post

Hi
I have a Panasonic PT-50DL54J, with what appears to be a crack (or a black fork) diagonally across the screen. I have tried a different lamp, with the same result. I took the back panel off and did a little cleaning and blew some compressed air around to remove dust. I noticed that the fork on the screen has moved a little. So know I am wondering if it could be a cobweb or a hair, etc. Problem is, I am not sure exactly what I should be trying to take apart to clean. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Feather dust around light engine after making sure it is secured and hasn't moved.

Thanks, This is my first time trying to take a TV apart!
So, I found a service manual online and now know approximately where the Light Engine is. Looks like I will have to dismantle some components to be able to get a little feather duster in to the light engine?

So, There turned out to be 2 wires that somehow shifted and were now resting above the lens. And broadcasting on to the screen. I was able to reach in with a screwdriver and push the wires clear of the lens. Problem solved. Thanks.
