Audio Drive Module

What are the known components that’s more likely to be damaged, or should I do a rebuild of the board by replacing all the transistors and changed the ic?

The board has likely become conductive and will have to be partially cut away to break the conduction. There are many ways to do that, milling bit, drilling, acrylic scoring knife, razor knife...

Q124 and Q125 are in parallel so both of those will need to be replaced as they always should. Install Q124/5 with long leads so that the body of the transistors will be close to the fan, for better cooling.

What is D114 part number on the same audio driver board?
The transistors I removed checked fine on the multimeter and the resistor even though heavy discolored (burnt), it was still in tolerance, any given reason for that?
What noticed on these boards also the board legend as C191 for the resistor in that area, any specify reason for this?

I have another audio driver board from another amp that the diode failed on (shorted), I was just curious as the marking says D114 and not “ZD” or some referenced towards it been a zener.
