Just found a 32" Magnavox 32MF231D/37 on the curb. Really clean condition, and thrown in my truck right before it started raining.
Threw it onto the bench and powered it up. Power LED comes on, and LCD backlights turn on, but no picture and no sound. Found a few bulged and vented capacitors on the SMPS board (big surprise, right?). Ordered some new caps from DigiKey, which should be here early next week.
Figured it was worth $5 in caps to try fixing it, even if I don't really need another set around here. Can always flog it on Craigslist for a few bucks.
