Yeah, that's the cap that causes lines and foldover at the top of the screen and will eventually kill the vertical IC. Even though the set is working OK, I'll probably change that cap for good measure. I see this cap fail in many brands of later TV's and it seems like 3-5 years is the age when these caps start to fail. I usually replace that cap with a high temperature cap with a higher voltage rating than the original.
