Hey!
I'll start by saying I did some reading in this forum and other places, and I looked into this guide:
https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=18542
But my case does not match perfectly anything I found.
I inherited a 7 year old Plasma TV with an issue:
After some random time (could be minutes, could be hours), it would turn itself off. I could immediate turn it back on. Most of the times it turned on with no problems, but sometimes it came with no picture (but with sound).
The situation usually fixed it self in a matter of minutes, the picture would come back on.
After about a week of having the TV, it turned itself off, came back with no picture, and it hasn't recovered yet...
I'm attaching pictures of the boards in the back. I will try to turn it on with the top/bottom buffers disconnected to see what's the status, but I would be happy to hear your thoughts!
I'm an electrical engineer with access to, well, everything (Solder, DMM, Scopes, whatever needed).
Thanks
Yoav
