Noob to the site, this is my first post. I have read a few threads but haven't found anything for my exact problem. I have a 50" vizio plasma tv and here are my problems: No Sound, No Picture, When plugged in it has an orange standby light lit on the front and if I push the power button the light will turn to green and click but thats it. I took the back of the tv off and noticed I had a blown cap on the Z sus board. I have replaced that blown cap with a new one, and tv still wont work. I'm open to any suggestions on the next step. Thanks!

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
After reading a few threads, I have done some more investigation. I plugged the tv in for about 10 min and let it stay on. Then I unplugged it, took the back off and felt the heat shield things to see if they were hot. The bottom one on the Z sus board was the only one that was warm, all others were cold to the touch. Does the power have to cycle through the Z sus before it gets to Y sus and buffers? -
Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Do you have a digital multimeter available?
If the TV is switched on in a dark room do you see any glow from the screen?Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Yes, I have one.Comment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Okay, any glow?
Start by taking a few pictures of the boards in your TV; if possible, use the Manage Attachments feature of this forum to upload them instead of an external site.
Then I can ask you to make some measurements using your meter.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
No, there isn't any glow when the tv is on.
I will take a few pics when I get home tonight and get them uploaded on here.Comment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Here are a few pics of the boards. On the X board the arrow shows what cap i replaced as it was blown. I must confess this was my first ever cap replacement, so is it possible to fry the board if i soldered it wrong. The square is around the only heat shield that was warm once the tv was plugged in for 10 minutes than turned off.Attached FilesComment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Can you post some closer pictures of the power connector on one sustain board? The photos are a bit fuzzy and difficult to troubleshoot with so if possible can you borrow a better camera.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Yes, I can do that but it will be later this evening before I can get them uploaded. Does it matter if its they Y or Z sus? Do you need pics of the power connecter plugged in and unplugged?Comment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Here is a pic of the connection on the power board and the connection on the X sus from the power board. What kind of labels are you talking about that you would like to know, the part number or is it something else?Comment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Okay top two pins on X sus are your Vs voltage.
1. Unplug TV and wait 30 seconds.
2. Plug X sus power in.
3. With multimeter, stick black probe in metal frame (spare screw hole etc)
4. Place red probe in the X sus connector (press it so it touches the metal with the wire in there.)
5. Set meter to 600V or 1000V DC, or if it has it, autoranging volts DC.
6. Plug in TV and power on TV as you normally would.
7. Note down the voltage. Does it peak and fall, or does it never rise, or does it stay high? For Vs you are looking for somewhere between 170V and 210V.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Hello Everyone in Badcaps, I am a newbie, My name is John 58 years old from Baltimore MD, and I love tech, I've been building computers since about 1985, went to night school. There is nothing more satisfying to me than saving a laptop, desktop, xbox, TV etc, from the scrap pile before its time. I am not so good at TV's so that is what brings me to Badcaps.
I have a Vizio p50 HDTV10a, when powering up the screen flickers for a split second, then stays black. Three little led lights come on, 2 go out in seconds and the other goes out, then it looks like 2 relays, on the PSB click and that's it. Front power light blinks 10 times before staying yellow. it looks like LG boards,
I look forward to hearing from and getting to know all the Techie's.Comment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
Hello: I checked the Va (2) pins, both about 240, and Vs (3) pins, top left on PSB, Va all 3 pins 340 for asplit second and drop off quickly.Comment

Re: 50inch Vizio No Picture No Sound
240V is not correct for Va. You should be getting close to 50~70V. Or you would destroy the plasma panel. Also, Vs should be around 170~210V.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

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 e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?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.

Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
- sound and backlight, but no picture
- when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
- it keeps rebooting
- without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
- without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
- when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.
- without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered... -
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... -
Hello everyone,
Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...
