Hello,
Thank you for the details, makes it easier to help! I have to ask before I begin trouble shooting (solves 90% of problems around here), when was the last time you replaced the lamp and did you do so with an OEM Philips brand lamp (the same bulb installed at factory)?
I note that for your TV model it is either a BP96-01073A or BP96-00826A depending on the fabrication year.
You mentioned some busted capacitors in your email I would suggest if you are comfortable with a soldering tool, to replace them or have them replaced its fairly inexpensive and worth a try..
Let me know, I hope I can help!
