    vizio vp50 looses picture and sound after a few min

    So I already repaired this tv once about a year ago, watching it the other night and it just popped off, no sound or picture, I unplugged it, let it sit for a little bit and turned it back on, everything worked fine, started netflix, a few mins into my show the whole thing went out again, I'm afraid I have a capacitor or something that's about to go, I'd rather replace this before it blows, because last time it blew it took a lot of stuff with it.. I'm almost certain this has to be in the power supply, the Vizio logo never shut off when it lost pic and sound.. what should I do or check for??

    It does sound like a PSU issue, and it's possibly a cap problem. The most reliable way to test caps is using an ESR meter.
