D40W20 RCA problem Can't Post

I won this projection HD monitor from DISH network a couple of years ago.

I have my tv service through my phone Co. Digital signal. Uses coax for a feed to tv. It was working fine and then my signal would go bad. I would receive parts of the signal but almost like it was scrambled. I could turn off tv and would start up fine again for maybe an hour.

I bypassed the coax to the tv by feed my vcr (RCA) the coax and feeding the tv with composite (yellow/white/red) in the back.

Worked fine and now intermittantly I get scrambling similar to before.

HERE is something I found out. I was going to move the tv around and plugged the composite into the second set on the back of the tv and the picture went back to normal.

I have a degree in electronices and it sounds like a loose board. I don't have a problem reseating the boards in the back if I knew how to bleed down the yolk capacitors. I don't want to be shot across the room.

Now if the screen goes bad I grab the top the the tv and give it a shake.

Any suggestions if my diagnosis is correct and how to drain the capacitors.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If I need to reseat the boards, would it be a good idea to clean the slots and board edges with tuner cleaner.

Thank you for any suggestions,

Joe
