I've been able to fix a number of TVs and monitors over the years using that method. I've fixed ones from 6 months old to 10 years old. Works every time. I usually replace most every capacitor (I don't mess with the big ones though - they'll mess you up if you're not careful to discharge them properly). It costs about ~$13 including shipping typically

EDIT: nevermind... no bet You saw flames shoot out the back?!? Our Z's can't even do that ... or can they?
It's the DU/SD board within the unit. It's a known flaw of the tv apparently. Stupid boards are sold out everywhere and even then they cost $600. The board basically fried itself it sounds like.
