    Seems like a common issue...
    not at all,this seem a totally different issue(now its scary)
    the vizio logo stays on when the tv screen is blank and it still has sound and sometimes it just freezes but still has sound,have not seen the tv go out cos i am watching an action movie.watching the mayor of NY speech and its doing the same thing

  • Vizio led 42inch m421vt screen freezes then goes out

    Stumbled across this forum while trying to figure out what happened to my tv
    Story so far:
    Bought TV on ebay(never ever do that again)and luckily i also bought 2 yrs warranty on it.tested tv for about a week and it was working fine,put tv up cos i was moving so tv was not in use for about 2 months before i moved.got to new apartment,set tv up and it was working fine for 2 days then the trouble started.1st the screen would freeze and then i will have to turn it off and on before it works again.then screen starts to go blank although i can still hear the volume perfect.
    contacted vizio since i could not find anyone to fix it and they decided to give me the run around so i contacted BBB who in turn contacted vizio and then vizio contacted me apologising and stuff and said since i was out of warranty,i have to pay for repairs,i said ok and vizio refered me to ITI who i ended up paying $255 to so they can come out and fix it
    they came in like 3 days ago,replaced a panel on it and it came on and stayed on till they left and as soon as they left,tv froze again though i can still hear the volume and now screen goes blank every once in a while but it still does it.i have contacted ITI and vizio again but i have the very belief that they are both speaking out of their (u know what)
    pls any help will be appreciated
