If it gets worse I will attempt it, but it works fine other than how long it takes to turn on.

Buy a new one! that is what i did i got this one now


for those who want to know about it specs the model is LG 32LH20R

Samsung should probably be recalling those models of tv's instead of being jewish.

Yea. What kind of dumbass engineer puts capacitors that are rated lower than the voltage they'll be handling? It's common sense that's shared among people that aren't electricians or engineers.

Mister, that's wasteful. What do you do with the old TV then?

Knight, just a FYI, you can put any voltage cap you want on there, the value you can't change is the uF (micro-farads). You could put 16v caps on there and be perfectly fine. The only problem with doing that is that with higher voltage caps, the physical size increases so you will have to make sure that you have room. I might have some spare ones if you're interested. I just looked and the closes spare caps I have are 6.3v 2200uF which would probably explode the instant you turned it on.

Some info for ya:

Nichion rates their caps differently, they have different model numbers meant for specific tasks. Like the above model is calls PS and is meant for switching power supplies, check out the datasheet:

You could probably have that TV fixed like new for under $10 and in a couple hours.

my last TV had a close encounter with my baseball bat now he rest in peace...

Ignorance.

it was an old crt TV 15" so nothing got lost and so i could dispose it the way it should had to be destroyed...

The proper way to dispose of CRT's is to give them to a hazardous waste place that properly disposes of them using methods that don't involve a baseball bat. I'm guessing you had fun breathing the phosphorous? I don't wanna know what you did with the leaded glass and lead solder.

no such thing as hazardous disposal waste place in my country....

and i coldnt have more fun with it i still have 2 19"CRT to go! just that is been raining too much to hit them

You sicken me.
