Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello World, quick introduction, I am a software developer by trade and an electrical tinkerer by desire. What has brought me to your part of the world is a 2011 Samsung 59 inch Plasma TV. A few years back I had lighting take out the PCB-Board, I replaced that and the TV has continued to work great until about a week ago when my wife went to turn it on to watch Big Bang Theory, and it went Big Bang with a little bit of smoke after a few minutes. I of course am trying to fix it and fairly certain the issue is with the power board....
