Although a capacitor may look good, it may be weak or bad. Here is what you will have to do. Replace capacitor (location) 2074 which is a 25 volt 2200Mf at 105 degrees. Replace capacitor (location) 2081 which is a 35 volt 1200 Mf at 105 degrees. And you should change capacitor 2066 which is a 16 volt 10Mf at 105 degrees. Please be careful with the last cap mentioned. You can easily tear the PCB trace if you are not extremely careful. This should bring your TV back to life. Thanks for asking and show a few hands of support!
Even if this does not work, I'm giving you 4 hands for giving such a detailed awesome answer, I will comment again when I have tried your solution.
Thankyou....I appreciate that!
Do you know if it is required to use the same brand for the capacitors or is it ok to use any capacitor with the same rating and voltage? My tv has CapXon capacitors in it and I couldtnt find the exact brand on google. they have nichicon capacitors on amazon and im curious to know if those will work.
You can use any brand. Be sure you use a high temperature capacitor. Should be rated at 105 degrees. And of course the same exact Mfs. The voltage may be the same or higher, but not less. Thanks for asking.
Thanks a ton!! I'm hoping to get my tv back up and running here in less than a week!
You are most certainly welcomed!
hello this question is for maatmartin7 you gave advice on replacing capacitors... 2200Mf or 2200uf whats difference between Mf and uf caps i did the cap change out from a different advisor but with uf caps is this a problem... i had the green light flashing symptom for a long time i just kept pushing tv to turn on..now i just get a backlight of the screen for a few seconds then nothing else no indicator light stays on just blank. is there a way to test a power supply board befor putting the tv back together? thanks for any response
The uf is the symbol for microfarads. Yes you did fine by using them. Remember you should replace two caps. The 35 volt 1200Mf and the 25 volt 2200mf. Be sure you are using the 105 degree temperature caps and you have the correct polarity. And the las tcap use caution upon removal and that one is the 16 volt 10 mf. Be sure you inspect any and all grounds. You may have to double check your work. If you have an ESR meter you may find another weak capacitor. But you will have to search. The ESR meter is your capacitor tester. Thanks for asking!

I just fixed a similar problem on mine and it was on the main board but mine wasn't responding to pushing the power button. I made a video on what part I found bad and how to replace it. I also added a link below for what part I ordered. L5973D STMicroelectronics Mouser
Sounds like you need to repair the power supply, don't fret, it can be really easy. Here is a pair of youtube videos I made after following some advice on this website from other posters:
