the 6 blinks is a Driver SOS 1 code from the SC energy recovery circuit. You will have to check the SC board and the SC to A board flex cable. Post some images of your boards with your question. That way we can see what you see. Use this guide Adding images to an existing question

You need to let us know how is your screen is broken. It is a Plasma screen so the humming could be coming from the boards for your screen

The mechanical switching sound is likely a relay engaging. The buzzing can be caused by coil whine (normal but annoying) or capacitors that have blown.

Blown capacitors in the power board would also cause the other symptoms you mentioned.
