Why is my power board burning?

I’ve had my Vizio model M471i-a2 for about 4 years, and about a week ago it started emitting a strong burning smell, and then the top of the screen started having Black flickerings. Took off the back and saw a substantial burn mark on the power board.

that is the cold side of the board and we really would need the underside of it as well. We would need to figure out what circuit those jumpers belong to. From their location I would think that this might be an issue related to the LED backlights. You can always try another board but do not connect the backlight connector and see if it does the same thing. without a schematic it could be difficult to check it any other way."
