I am working on a Hitachi rear projection TV - Model 60SC2K that has
developed an unusual problem. When the set is powered up after being
off for a while, the red light on the front will light and the relay
will energize (click on), but there is no sound or picture. If the
set is left on anywhere from 3 to 5 minutes, the set will come on and
work perfectly. If it is shut down and restarted it comes on
normally. Only when it is turned off for any length of time will cause
a delay in turning on after power is pushed.

If that model still had the separate smps board, then there are some
high esr capacitors on it. As I remember they were either 4.7uf or
47uf value that would go bad all of the same value.
