Did you replaced the power supply as card basis; or, repaired it by replacing any capacitors at it. If you have replaced the capacitors only, the polarity of the capacitor you've replaced might be reversed. Capacitors have both +Ve and --Ve polarities, and should match with the markings at the board; otherwise it will burst when you power it up.

So does that mean i need to replace the connections? and now a new power board?
the reason i replaced the power board was because because it just blow out and it stopped and then i got a new one and it worked for a little while and then blow out... this is a great tv and i don't want to buy a new one but i want to replace what i can before i buy a new one.. Can i bring it somewhere to get it tested like best buy? or something so that i can get a can figure it out instead of guessing and spending money on parts that i don't know is wrong exactly. and I'm not to sure what to do at this time.
