There aren't always physical signs that an FET is blown. A lot of cases you don't even know it's blown, and it doesn't show it's blown, it's all been kept internal and the only way to check would be with a multimeter.

When there is a sign the most noticable are:

"Bubbles" on the top of the FET.
A smell not normal to you. Kinda' like rotten eggs, I've heard.
