I had the same problem with the TV not switching on straight away, it was taking longer and longer each time until it stopped coming on all together. I bought a new power supply PCB and that fixed the problem.

This is a link to the board I bought:

£120 - which is just £5 more then I would have had to pay to diagnose the problem through a local repair company. It was also very easy to fit
