I may or may not be of help here but I would monitor each section off the filter caps for voltage indifferences against a working one and one that is intermaiitant or failed. I know this may be diffucult considering the tv has to actually be powered up to do so but im under the impression that you sould check these units for inherent cooling issues when the board is in operation. Im one of those to think you may have a cold solder joint somewhere too. Have you tried holding down one or more buttons as you plug the tv in to see if you get a dim standby light? I know it sounds dumb but have you tried unplugging the button strip and power the set up via remote?

The problem is fixed by swapping the chassis board for a known good one, not swapping the button panel.

I'm going to hunt for cold solder joints probably tomorrow.
