Just got this 32 inch vizio vw32l hdtv40a, I pluged power in to it and as soon as i switched it on something made a prety big bang and no it is completely dead with no signs of power, Is this a common fault with this set and is there any ways i can repair it?? Thanks.. ;-)

"i switched it on something made a pretty big bang" I would first inspect it real well to see if there is any blown parts inside. Pictures of the inside?

Budm, that is very diplomatic -
"I pluged power in to it and as soon as i switched it on something made a prety big bang and no it is completely dead with no signs of power is there any ways i can repair it?? "

I was thinking along the lines of " how the hell would we know"

So I opened a power supply that had been hit by a power surge and the fuse is gone and two 16n25c mosfets are shorted. I am not that good on crossing mosfets but I have two smk1430 mosfets which are n-channel and I wondered if I could use them or do I need to wait for the actual part for a week?

Pictures and model number of this power supply? More likely the IC that drives the MOSFETs will be damaged also.
