    Vizio SV320XVT loses picture after 15 minutes

    Hello all,
    We have a Vizio SVT320XVT that is 18 months old and now it loses its picture after about 15 minutes. After it loses it picture I can shut it off for about 10 minutes or so and then turn it back on and it will have its pictuire back for another 15 minutes or so. Is there any way to troubleshoot this down the the board level. I see there are several replacement boards I could purchase - main board, IR board, T-Control board (?), power board, display board. I havent opened it up yet. We spent $480 for this - it was a Christmas present I got for my wife Dec 2010.

    Thanks

      Need to elaborate on what you say.
      Loses its picture -does the picture AND backlight go off?

      I can shut it off for about 10 minutes or so and then turn it back on       - is that with the remote - the on off switch- or unplugging?

      What does the power light do when the picture goes off.

      My suggestion would be for you to take the back off and look for any signs of damage - bulged or leaking caps / burn marks/

      Next when it has been off for a while switch it on and with a hair dryer warm one of the boards to see if you can accelerate the fault. Let it cool between boards.

      It may just be a loose cable that is disconnecting when the set warms up.

      If the hairdryer plan is inconclusive unseat and reseat ALL connectors.

      While the back is off take a picture of the whole chassis (max resolution 2000x2000 and 2MB) and post it using the manage attachments button, which is found by clicking "go advanced" under quick reply.

      Are you saying you do not want to do any component replacement.
      Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

          Vizio M65-E0 No Picture, No Sound
          by ggil44
          Hi I inherited a Vizio M65-E0 that isn't working. It must have been dropped on the corner because I found that the infrared circuit had a capacitor with one end broken off of the board and some green corrosion around the plug to the main board. I re-soldered the capacitor and cleaned the corrosion well and tried turning the M65-E0 on and I was successful. My problem is that while the back lights come on and appear to perform local dimming there is no picture or sound. It kind of looks like you are looking at the TV through a very dense fog, where changing the input on the remote will change bright...

          Vizio m65-c1 picture flashing on and off on the screen
          by maricm
          HI all,
          hope someone point to the possible issue before I start buying replacement parts.
          Tv starts normal and responds to remote fine, PSU voltages mesured fine 19v was 18.9V under load and 19V with main board disconnected.
          Backlight stays on all the time,
          Sound works fine.
          screen keeps changing form black to full picture in about 1sec intervals.
          Picture looks fine with no visible artifacts.
          I have disconnected backlights and flashlight test confirmed that picture is still doing the same.

          Vizio D50u-D1 Powers up no picture
          by csmith
          I replaced the backlights all good. Two months later set was dead, had a shorted D9100, replaced all good again.
          Now months later set powers up,backlights light ok,no picture. 12volts missing from fuse on tcon. 12VA on power
          supply is 19 volts. Changed D9100 again, same, 12 volts measures 19. Am I looking at a power supply or mainboard
          issue. Set will power up with remote but not power off....

          VIZIO E70-E3 Half picture with half TCON
          by Fly_Among_Stars
          Hi,
          I have a VIZIO E70-E3.
          Symptoms: Black screen, no picture, but LED backlights are working.
          I probed the power board and voltages are as listed on the board.
          Main board appears fine, too.
          I believe the problem is either a bad T-CON board, or connection to LCD, or bad LCD.
          There are two separate ribbon cables feeding the LCD.
          If both are connected, the screen is black.

          If only the ribbon cable that feeds the right side of the screen (when viewed from the front) is disconnected, the left side of the screen shows picture and...
