Zenith SY3272DT problem turning on.

[Pat]

Hello, as stated in the title I have a Zenith SY3272DT that most ofte
does not turn on. When the on/off button is pressed the relay click
and that is all. I have looked to past posts on this forum and other
and believe the problem to be a 100 uf capacitor (CX3416). However
cannot find the schematics for this TV so I dont want to just star
desoldering things without regard; where is the general location o
this ailing capactitor? Also this will be my first attempt at T
repair, is there anything that I must know? Will I have to discharg
stored energy in the TV before I can work on it? Thanks to all tha
help.

I just found the problem capacitor. For the life of me I just could no
see where it was (I would blame bad eye sight). I did eventually fin
the cap and replaced the 25 volt one with a 50 volt one. Its located t
the right (as you look at the back of the TV) hidden behind a relay. Th
problem is fixed, I have a fully working TV set now. I just thought
would reply to my own question in case someone else searches the foru
and needs answers. Good day to all.
