Wharfedale lcd42f1080p

[cvel]

Could someone please help with this tv. I was given it yesterday as it wouldn't turn on. When I turn it on the blue power light flashes but nothing on screen so with a little research I opened it up to find 2 bulging caps so went out this morning to maplins where I bought all new caps and changed them all and yet the fault still exists. Any help would be much appriciated as I don't want to spend any more money on it if it's not going to fix the issue. All the caps I replaced was replaced for the very same value caps. I double checked all my soldering but nothing changed. It's been bugging me all day.

We can help a lot more if you please post good clear pictures of the whole chassis, and then pictures of each board, front and back (in the same orientation) and close up of connectors,using the manage attachments button, which is found by clicking "go advanced" under quick reply also if you can let us know the board numbers used in the tv.
Maplin capacitors although may work tempory they wont last long as only general purpose capacitors and also esr on capacitors does matter i tend too use panasonic fc fm fr series (which have low esr) capacitors alot for my repairs there are other makes you can also use.
