Chosen Solution
From browsing repair forums I’ve seen this issue is quite common and can be brought on by a flurry of sources. I however think I might be lucky in my bad luck. I’ve taken the back panel apart and upon close inspection, there seems to be a VERY likely culprit. My question however for the more experienced peeps in here is if this issue is likely to be the cause of my problem or a side effect of another problem. On the power module (or Power Modle as written on the thing … ), one of the parts seems to have overheated (marked BCK-50-L04050, in the bottom middle rightish section of the board). Wondering if:
Only that part can be replaced -tried a google search to no avail - what is that part called btw.
Can something else cause this issue that would render the power module replacement trivial.
Anyone has a link to access the service manual for this TV. Thanks a lot in advance for your insights, Nik Additional pictures: The rest of the power board up close:

@niktamer let’s start off with your part. That is a transformer. It does look like it has failed but replacements will be hard to find. You may have to look for a complete power board. The rest of your boards do look okay and for now I’d concentrate on the power board. If you are really interested in reworking your power board (there is usually a reson why the transformer failed so you need to check the other components) try to find the schematic for the power board. It is actually a Skyworth 168P-P6L01D-W0
