I have a VO42L that stopped working recently. I had sound, but no picture. I took it to a repair shop, and they said my main board was bad. I ended up replacing it myself, but now the TV has no power whatsoever. I hook up the cord and nothing. I'm not sure if it was like this after I got it from the shop, or if this is something I've done accidently while replacing the board. Am I forgetting something? What things can I check? Please help. Any would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

If you have "I had sound, but no picture" AFTER returning the set to the conditions it had BEFORE you swapped the main board - they either sent you a "wrong" replacement board or a defective replacement board.

If it's "but now the TV has no power whatsoever," AFTER swapping board back, then it's something you've most likely caused.

"Sound no picture" before swap. Board has same part numbers and looks the same as old one. Any way to test whether it's defective or not? Any idea how I may have caused "no power" after swapping the board?

Let's try it this way: Does the set resume it's original symptoms when you swap the boards back to how they were originally?

Yes, I swapped the original board back in. The tv still has no power. Fuse anywhere possibly?
