My proscan lcd tv started smoking found the source to be an inductor on the power supply. it still turns on , just starts burning after a minute. the model on the board is "sta200tv-f4". I don't really know what i'm doing , can someone help me ?

I believe it is "L7" on this diagram I found. http://www.go-gddq.com/upload/2009_05/09050311204786.pdf

it's not likely to be the problem, rather something past it has failed and that poor inductor is now passing current in excess of what it should be
