      Look at your readings in post 33. You measured pin 2 at 1.51V. As PlainBill would have done if he wasn't MIA, he would ask you is this good or bad now that you know how to interpret the part number?

      Hint: Reread posts #34 and #40 again slowly.

        Thank you so much for your help. I will make sure that I check the surrounding capacitors as you suggested and order a new regulator. Thank you for responding back so quickly on my posts

            Hi all!
            I have a bad U9 on my main board
            Can anyone provide Digikey part number for K1117S15 that is on the main board?
            Thanks!

              1) Post a picture of your U9 so we know what package it is. Follow my sig file exactly for posting a picture.

              2) What are your readings for U9?

              3) In digikey, click on "in stock" and type in "1117 1.5v regulator" into the search field. Once you have correct package type selected, your choices will narrow down significantly.

                  Plugged it in, hit the power button and took the following voltage readings:
                  U9
                  Pin1=0
                  Pin2=1.5 volts
                  Pin3=4 volts

                  U7
                  Pin1=.03 volts
                  Pin2=1.27 volts
                  Pin3=4.03 volts

                  U33
                  Pin1=2.79 volts
                  Pin2=4.03 volts
                  Pin3=5.10 volts

                  U8
                  Pin1=2.04 volts
                  Pin2=3.28 volts
                  Pin3=5.15 volts

                  Here's a picture.....

                  Thank you!

                    U33 it's bad. Should be 3.3V(where do you have 4V) and it's supplying the U7 and U9 with higher voltage.

                        This is exactly why I always ask for actual readings.

                          Provide the actual part numbers of your regulators. The part numbers in your pics are not readable.

                                      Nope. Your U9 is good. You report pin 2 is 1.5V for U9. The part number tells us that the expected output voltage is 1.5. So your U9 is good.

                                        OK, then I will replace U33 since that isn't outputting 3.3v.

                                          If you are not sure how to solder surface mounted device, just take it to the local shop and give them the new part to install instead.

                                            Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                                            by Tynan Dill
                                            I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                                            Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                                            I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                                            The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                                            With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                                            Assuming...

                                            Hi.

                                            picked up another TV. This time is a Vizio M65-C1. TV does not turn on. I had repaired another 60 inch vizio , Bad main board.
                                            When power button is pressed, the Power led indicator on the bottom right, turns for a few seconds and then it fades away. No backlight or Vizio logo on screen. Removed back cover and repeated test.
                                            This is the TV This TV is a little different from the Samsung I have worked on. Power supply is on the Left side, Main Bd is on the right side, T-CON , not in the picture is on the bottom. I am assuming that the boards in the middle are the LED...

                                            Hi all, I just want to share the repair of my 60PK550-UA TV set.

                                            The TV set was powering on, just no image. After verification, nothing wrong on the YSus or ZSus boards. Nothing wrong on the main board either.

                                            But I noticed that the LED was not flashing on the Logic Control Board. This is an EBR63450301. The LED is supposed to flash even with all the flat cables disconnected, with only the power cable attached.

                                            All the voltages measured at the electrolytic capacitors on the board were good. From top left to bottom right:
                                            C57: 3.30V

                                            Failure Symptom



                                            No picture, just red vertical stripes. Google search shows quite common problem for these recent Vizio M series although red vertical stripe pattern may differ. Some call it "Netflix" boot screen haha.

                                            Where is the short?

                                            Panel has 4x buffer boards. Quickly found the 1/4 panel buffer board with the problem by selectively disconnecting buffer board flex cables.
