Blown capacitor v. trying to fix tv
bad pic.. but do the two to the right look slightly blown to you? these are the caps on the power supply. i found a walkthru online from a guy with the same problem/model tv, so i figured it was worth a shot.. $15 fix > $300 replacement.
they arent exactly flat like the ones on the left but they aren't extremely puffed up either..

probably not blown, if they're blown, they should be leaking. but if you're going to replace them might as well do both.

It looked like it was cracked. Seems kinda silly to glue that.
