Have you checked http://toms-service-manuals.com

Most of the time the service manuals do a fairly good job at determining component replacement on main boards. Not so much on power supplies though.

I found my manual at "manual-archives.com". Don't know how legit it is, or whether its just a "front" that "borrows" from "toms" and others. $5 for one week was reasonable. Tom's didn't have the manual for my specific sharp tv.
As mentioned, the "what looks like official" sharp service manual was pretty thin on info around the power board.
