Thanks for the help. Now a couple of questions (apart from how did my
message end up under this thread?!) bearing in mind I haven't taken
the back off the TV yet - How will I recognise which is the vertical
IC? I have an ESR meter - will this be any use finding the offending
component? (the cap, not the IC of course!). Do I need to take an
precautions before starting work/applying my soldering iron/expensive
meter to the board?

More or less, it has the appearance of an audio amp of a couple watts.


Cheers

common problem with Toshibas, normally a capacitor located near the
vertical IC (often in the range of 2.2 to 10uF). just replace them all
if unsure.
