I have a CRT (old style) television in my kitchen its a few years old which has started to turn itself off. Sometimes it will work without a problem then suddenly turn itself off, it seems like the power has drained from it, the LED power light fades. Turning it off and on again sometimes solves the problem however often the TV turns on again and loses power almost immediately.

From a very limited knowledge of electronics I was wondering if there could be problems with a capacitor. Or is it likely to be due to the power supplied to the tv, I have tried it on different plugs and the problem seems to remain.

Thanks for any thoughts
