Re: ViewSonic TV suddenly won't start at all

Thanks Bill. Are there regular stores that have capacitors that I can purchase or is the internet the best way to go?

I've identified 5 caps that are bulging:

(2) - 16V - 1500uF
(2) - 25V 220uF
(1) - 25V 1000uF

I see that many people who have their tv die on them have a clicking symptom, but mine doesn't. It literally was fine for 4 years and then suddenly I tried to turn it on in the afternoon (after it worked that morning) and got nothing. It's now silent and gives no indication that it is receiving electricity.

Up until this the tv had never had any problems with the picture or turning on. I've unplugged it for a couple days and plugged it back in but it still doesn't work. Nothing unusual happened to the tv or in our house between the last time we watched it and the time it would not...
