Worked like a charm, now running perfectly. Also, I'm a day or two from being completely healthy again as well.

Thank you all!

Parts are on order, I'll keep you all updated.

Alright, looks like I'll set about replacing the fallen soldier.

May have the cap available at work, will find out tomorrow. If not, I'll order one.

Should I plan (and order) to replace several on the board, or just the one that is bulging?

Hope these are enough......

Hello all, I hope your 2012 has started off better than mine. I fell ill with strep and my tv decided to go belly-up in the same day. Since I'm stuck at home anyway (still contagious for a while yet), repairing the tv has become a project.

Basically, it will function normally for a few seconds after being turned on, albeit with an odd noise. It sounds like a faint buzz and/or grind.

After that, the power led will change from green to amber, the screen goes blank, and the buzz stops. In it's stead, a high-pitched humming sound will occur. The humming will continue...
