marky26_uk Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hi, if you're capable of opening the tv up then i suggest looking for a domed capacitor, this is a very common thing with the tv's of today. The power supply board might have a domed capacitor & if it has it needs replacing & this is usually all it is. What is the fault with the tv ?

marky26_uk Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Definitely could be a capacitor that needs replacing, the psu's have detection circuits that will shutdown if something is wrong, type the model number in on google & include capacitor in the search, there might be someone that has already encountered this problem. I've repaired loads of monitor's, tv's & sky boxes that have bulged capacitors, replacing them brings the unit back to life. Have a good search on google, good luck.

marky26_uk Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 P.S. Let me know how you get on. *** WARNING *** Please do not leave the tv plugged in if you're going to have a look yourself, also there's high voltage capacitors that will still hold charge & can give you a nasty shock !!!! So please take care as if you don't know what you're doing it can be very dangerous, i hold no responsibilty if you injure yourself.
