Television will not come on unless you keep plugging and unplugging

I recently repaired 2 LCDs that would not imidiatly turn on when the power button was pressed. It took the first one 5-10 cycles before it would start, and the little one took about a half hour. I removed the back and found that a few components were bad on the inverter portion of the board and replaced them with corrisponding parts from a local electornics store and they both started first try everytime. If you have the tinkering spirit and for the price of a soldering station some desolder braid and some solder you could fix your problem today.

Just make sure it is unplugged!
