You forgot the punchline:

i consider blown capacitor that is popped open with insides visible. know nothing about testing these although i have a ohm volt etc. testing device. so that's all i could diagnose. googled this question and most answers mentioned blown capacitors. my origanal name here was 4uzindian. but had to change it. i have been since last september been dumpter diving and thats where i got this tv. any easy things i could check. if not i'll bring it back . thanks for your answer.

Defective capacitors can be bad without blowing their tops. you should check them with an ESR meter and if still in doubt, de-solder and check!
