I have a Polaroid tda-03211c that has no picture. I replaced the capacitors and that didn't fix the issue. I then found that the f2 fuse was blown, so I replaced that as well. However, after I replaced F2 and plugged in unit the fuse blew immediately. Do you know what could be causing it to blow? Could it be a transistor?

sounds like inverter board. What it sounds like is happing is your LCD is working ut the backligkt board that allows you to see is kicking off. (as you still have sound) Which could be the (most likely) inverter board, or the power supply board. You can take apart and check for voltage at your power supply. The power supply has a pigtail with large white wires and a connector. Power up with the center back cover off and check your voltage at the white connector on the power supply before and after the screen gos out. If there is no large voltage loss it is your inverter board.

You can used boards on e-bay or

I was just looking at my manual for mjne and there is a fuse behind the set in a small plastic box you might check it

screen faded to black after very small amount of smoke, strangely it did not smell electrical. the pic is slightly visible when i shine a flashlight on it.
