Toshiba 30HF84	Can't Post

hello everyone my girlfriends parents have this tv and when you first turn it on there is no picture and there is a hissing sound coming from the inside of the tv, if you turn it off and on a few times the picture is awesome and there is no hissing sound.

im thinking the problem is the flyback as i have seen problems kinda like that in arcade monitors and i want to just make sure thats what it is. thanks for all the help and advice!

also here is a recording i made of the noise if anyone wants to hear it and make their own judgement

Make sure the anode cap is not damaged and is seated correctly.
Or it could be a bad joint or a capacitor that's arcing.

i desolder some of the caps and tested them with my digital multimeter and they tested fine, i had my fiancee listen and she pointed to where the HOT is or around the power fet, is there a way i can test this fet to make sure its still good and is it possible for it to be semi bad to where its working enough to turn on the tv but working poorly enough to cause issues?

Testing caps or other parts randomly usually is slow in identifying the defective one(s)

You DO have an active signal / source connected so that you can answer the question of whether or not it has any sound (music/voice) from any source?

Is the anode cap seated correctly? (Careful you don't get knocked on your a$$ - discharge 1st with set unplugged)

Try it in the dark and see if you see anything blue/violet around cap or flyback (or anywhere else).
