Dose days are gone, when capacitors were the fault.
I'm thinking mainboard.
If do you disconnect the wire harness between power supply and mainboard, the TV turns on and has backlight?
Inspect the power supply board real well, especially the solder joints of the transformer legs and the legs of the MOSFETs and Diodes mounted on the heatsinks.
Also list the DC Voltage readings of each pin with its name of the connector CNM802, there is a chart that lists the pin out of the connector, check them when TV is plugged in but power switch is not activated, and when the power switch is activated.
Do you see a pin marked "BL ON" or "ON/OFF"? Check that too.

Looks the same fault as a 55D7000, defective LED strips. Could be mainboard but I know with mine i proved open cct section of strip. Mine had a 4 channel LED cct, none blown but suspect joints. Disconnecting the backlight leads on mine created the same relay cycling. managed to bypass the LEds broken and it ran for 6 hours then I think they were burnt out.
OK, pin 20 PS (PS_ON, 4.11VDC), is it steady or it is fluctuating in sync with the power cycling?
Do you also hear the power relay RL801S clicking in sync with power cycling?
This TV has 4-channel LED driver circuits.
Did you check the solder joints on the bottom side of the board? see the red circles in the picture.
I also marked the bottom side of the board to show the function of each section of the board based from what I can see from the picture provided by shopjimmy.
OK, now it makes more sense now, the standby power supply is not stable, it can be due to bad caps on the power supply board or the main board is drawing too much current.
You can run the power supply board by itself and use the 10 Ohms 5W resistor to simulate current draw of 0.5A on the V5B output, it should be able to maintain 5V output with 10 Ohms load.
