Hey everyone,

I've got an LG 42LE8500 on which the screen is showing al kinds of colors and distortion. I've opened it up and tried to have a look at the condensators but they all look fine to me. Not swollen or leaking. Any idea what I can do about it? When I turn it on it seems fine but after a few minutes it starts. I made a video of the screen so you can see what I'm talking about.
