Hello forum!
This is my fourth post so I will try to start on the right foot by doing it properly right off the bat. I bought this plasma faulty to play around with. The main board is completely burnt. When I unplug everything but the power supply and the main board and I plug in the power chord I get plenty of smoke from the main board.
Now, the model of the TV is a bit of a detective work. I couldn't find the model of the TV anywhere on the back cover or inside so I deduced it from the main board codes. SO I THINK this is PS50Q97.
Now, since the board is toasted, I decided to buy a new main board. The reason I am posting this is because I would like NOT to toast the new board when I plug it in. So, the bottom line is, how do I make sure I do not toast the board I plan on getting from EBay? The reason I ask this is because I presume it is not impossible that something else is faulty on the TV and that, once I plug everything up again, that other thing might kill the new board.
