Capacitors on THOMSON TV 43UC6416W

They are made of an insulation and two metal wires.

Indeed, this procedure is highly risky as you may get electrocuted. Please unplug the power from your THOMSON TV 43UC6416W, and ask a professional to do it if you are not an expert about electricity.

Check all of the connections from the wall to your cable box and from the cable box to your TV to ensure that all connections are tight.
