This is my LG tv, when the power is connected there's a whining sound coming from the red circle area (probably the yellow/black brick).
It takes a few minutes for the picture/audio to kick in after plugging it in, and that only works after unplugging and replugging it.
The power button toggles the power led indicator properly, but nothing seems to happen unless it's unplugged and replugged.
Any ideas on fixing it?
That's a transformer, those things whine.
These caps look like they're blown, they should be replaced and the reason why they've blown should be looked into.
If you don't know dick about electronics, take it to someone who does and maybe if they're nice enough they'll do it for you.

So when the top is bowed out it's no good?
Good eye and thanks

Sometimes they bow from the bottom as well, but yes, if it's bowed out it's faulty. They should be replaced. Don't touch the pins of the caps unless you know they're discharged, you might hurt/kill yourself if the bigger ones are charged enough or just blow something else on the board. Get someone else who knows his shit to do it or do a lot of research if that's not an option.
