Greetings people smarter with circuity then myself 
I recently bought myself a broken plasma tv for cheap in hopes of using it as a learning experience seeing as I've never taken a tv apart before.
The tv is an LG 60PV450-UA.
With all components installed the following sequence happens when I hit the power button:
I hear a click, the red standby light turns off for a second then reilluminates only to fade out, hear another click. About six seconds later another 2 clicks in a row and the red light illuminates.
I disconnected the YSUS board and the some events happened.
I plugged back in the YSUS board and unplugged the ZSUS board from the power board and the TV powered up. The image is visible but looks almost burned, I attached a photo.
Since the tv stayed on with the ZSUS board unplugged I checked the voltages I could which are:
VS TP - 202v (listed - 201v)
VA TP - 55v (listed - 55v)
VSC - 148v
I suspect this is all normal because the ZSUS board is unplugged.
On the ZSUS board which came with the TV there was a bit of burning on one of the copper coils so I bought a new ZSUS board but the symptoms are the same.
To the best of what I can tell there are two options, either the ZSUS board I purchased is broken, or there is something else wrong with the tv.
If I could get some troubleshooting advice I would greatly appreciate it. I've looked over all the boards and it doesn't look like any of the capacitors are bulging and I checked continuity on all the fuses.
