Okay, so to test the exposed traces, with the TV unplugged, I put my negative probe on that center metal plate and test each trace on the buffer boards that I can with the positive probe? What should my meter be set to, and what should a correct reading be?

I acquired some solder wick today, too. (RatShack apparently calls it 'desoldering braid'.) Should I go ahead and remove the blown SUS IPM or is there anything else I should do before removing it?

I found Coppell's stuff online and on eBay, but I haven't yet verified which IPM is the correct one. I assume the part number is on the IPM itself and thus will be unreadable until I desolder it?
