Hi

Attached is the closest map there is for the cct.

You need to check your supply lines and see if any of them are down, usually when the +5v main is low the TV can't switch on.

It has been known for the supply to dissappear from the main board too sometimes.

Hello Everyone,

If the C330 1000uFd cap is of the 6VDC working voltage type, you may need to replace it with an EXTRA LOW ESR unit. This is a manufacturers' requirement for a number of TV's, such as those marketed by the British, BUSH brand, et cetera.

Note that an ORDINARY replacement cap WILL WORK INITIALLY but won't last very long before failing again.

I found a defect capacitor near to C330 for 5V Standby, 1000uF/25V; after changing, TV is running again.
