Your friend is correct there is a fuse in your televisions's power supply. Now I do not however suggest that you open the TV set and try to find it, because it's not like the old days where the fuse was located in or around about the same area in most TVs . The fuse in this case might be towards the middle of the set or on the power supply board in any location so finding the fuse will be the biggest chore. However here are some simple instructions of how you might be able to find the fuse.
1. unplug the TV 2 take the back off of the tv 3. using a flashlight look for a component that looks like two round metallic cylinders separated by a glass cylinder. 4. remove the fuse from the fuse holder 5. visually inspect the fuse for internal burning (black soot) 6. if possible test the fuse with an ohmmeter should read 0 ohms 7. Replace the fuse with one of the same voltage and current rating (check for replacement fuses at radio shack or some place like that) 8. After the fuse is replaced try to turn on the TV before putting the back on "BE VERY CAREFUL DANGEROUS VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT" 9. If the TV comes on you are read to turn the TV off and put the back of the TV back on. 10 If the TV does not come back on you will have to get the set looked at by a qualified TV technician since if the TV does not come on it may be the result of a power supply malfunction.
If the TV is blowing the fuse in your house, It looks like a component in the power supply is shorted.
To fix the TV, you will need to buy a new power supply module or get the one inside the TV fixed.
Good Luck.
have you checked the fuses inside the set. The power outage could have surged just enough to blow the fuse. Dont forget to unplug it when you check the fuse.
