    Vizio E320VT Black & White Picture Only

    Out of the blue my Vizio went from color to black and white only picture. Has anyone encountered this problem or does anyone have some idea what could be causing it?

    On all inputs, including HDMI?

    Checked the Colour/Saturation option in the menu?

      I would sugest finding the reset factory defaults option in the menu. Tell us if that works. And also see if theres color on the menu / or and of the other inputs (hdmi, component).
      Fixed so far 12 lcd's , 1 plasmas, 5 monitors, 0 dlp's (plan to keep the dlps at 0). and 3 atx power supplies, and 2 motherboards.

        I will try the reset and also the menu option. I only have one source for imputs. I will try to hook it up to my computer HDMI connection. Thanks for the suggestions.

          vizio M3D550KDE Black & white picture
          by yankys
          HI everyone Pick up this 55" VIZIO tv that only plays in black and white picture doesn't matter what inputs HDMI or apps, but all the menus are in color, if you're on Netflix everything in color until you play any show. I'm thinking main board if so, can the board be reflowed to try and correct this?

          Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
          by Mgiffune
          I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

          I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and

          Asus rog strix scar 17 G733QR display Issue(flicker, black/white))
          by sgcampion
          Hello,

          Asus rog strix scar 17 G733QR
          My Asus laptop started flickering from time to time and more and more in last months. First the screen was going black but sometimes if I moved the screen it would work again, other times I needed to plug/unplug the laptop or close and open the lid to make it work again.

          In last days I see that if I move the laptop lid to about 45 degrees it will flicker or get white or black screen(it's random, sometimes white sometimes flickers etc). I was trying to troubleshoot it myself but seems like it's either the cable or the display....

          Vizio VO42L, white logo, no backlight, no picture
          by Daveleone
          Hi all! I've got a Vizio VO42L. Plug it in, and logo flashes orange/white for a bit, then solid orange. Press power, and logo changes to white. There is no backlight.
          From reading some of the posts here I thought the inverter could have been the problem, but I've replaced it and still have the same issue. I noted that shining a flashlight on the screen shows nothing, so now I'm thinking main board?

          I took the following readings with the TV powered on. I also tried taking the readings with the CFL connectors unplugged - no change.

          Main board:
          Continuity across...
