I try to turn on my tv, the green light goes on but takes a long time to come on if at all. i've tried unplugging it from the back of the tv as well as from the power supply. i just started having this problem in the last couple of days. does my tv need to be serviced? and if so, where would i take it? model # wt322, not sure of all the product info.

There is a repair service which addresses any problem with the power supply board, not just bad capacitors: http://www.coppelltvrepair.com/p/780/digital-lifestyles-wt322-power-supply-board-repair-service-no-power-shutdown-etc

Hi, The problem with the TV could be its power supply, could be a dry joint or faulty capacitors/components if you know someone with soldering skills you maybe able to get a repair kit for it if not then consult your local tv technician, there will be plenty in the phonebook or search the net for one local to you.

The power supply boards can be fairly costly upto about 100 GBP or more, some places do sell them second hand once the board is identified at about half the price or like I said you can get repair kits for some power supplies at a fraction of the cost if you are able to replace components yourself.

Dangerous voltages are present in your TV even when turned off so If in doubt please consult a qualified TV Technician!

This is a common symptom of a failure of the filter capacitors on the power supply board. This is easy to repair. Below is a picture of the power supply board used in this model and below that is a link to a repair kit.
