    vizio vp50

    Okay i looked and looked and looked not getting clues to this tv problem that i can find.... I am pretty sure this set power board has been recapped because there is only one samwha 450v 22uf cap the rest is rubycons and samxon and all the samxon ones were in place of what used to be samwha after looking all over and found budm photbucket online of this very same set and i am certain it was samwha's could be wrong not 100% certain...anyways there is no bulging caps that i can find and ones i pulled are within good tolerances...but when powered on i get sound and no image and relay clicks and the mainboard does respond to power button and i get good VS 207 volts however there is only 6 to 7 volts and sometimes 14 volts on VA and once in a while i get this high pitched whine from the power board and it will get higher and higher pitched till you can't hear it no more at one point i swear i smelled something burning but i can not find anything burned.......i tried the set with its buffers and x and y disconnected and still do not get any VA voltage the upper and lower buffers look good althou i have not done a short test on it yet mainly because i need to get va voltage working first...any idea's ?



    BTW the power board model number is pspf561a01a and made by samsung

      Please PLEASE add paragraphs next time. Try reading that wall of text, really hard to.

      Anyway, dark room, any glow on screen at all?

          Unplug the VA connector on the Y-SUS and Z-SUS, bottom of each board.
          Do not reconnect this while the TV is on or the panel will fry.
          Check VA when disconnected to see if it is good.

            i know well enough not to hot plug anything pdp ...i already did the test with y-sus and z-sus disconnected and still get no va voltage it was stated in my "wall" of text lol except i called it x and y er z whatever lol different companies call them different names but same thing pretty much...


            had both disconnected still no va i say it safe to assume its a problem on power board....correct?

                Re: vizio vp50

                maybe this is a clue i let the power board sit disconnected over night on bench picked it up and got a hell of a shock felt stronger then getting shocked by 120 ac volts....


                so it does not drain like it should i think,,, so what i do now is use a ceramic resistor to drain each big boy caps to prevent that from happening again.....and now i carry it by the edges........

                    but $100 for the power board is rich for my blood rather fix it ...it can't be anything serious cause the VS works just the VA is wonky...6 to 14 volts it bounces around i do have a esr meter and it works good already helped me with another tv and computer stuff takes the guess work out...however this power board is a weird one to me in theory i think it may have a bad regulator...but i am not a expert just a theory gonna hunt for schematics...

                        Here is it note where i marked 1,2,3 where the blue box capacitor is missing had a 42" vizio not work due to one of them being bad replaced one box and a regulator fixed the problem but this one is not burnt and esr shows 3.0 on the 2 470n k 275v and on the 220n k 275v shows 7.0 on esr i think it high but no sheet to know for sure ...on the 42 inch i worked on it was obvious because it was burnt....

                              also want to note when powered up no green led but it still puts out VS voltages just no VA er too little voltage suppose to be 63v

                                no glow whatsoever both sustin boards stay cold and on power board only the middle heatsink gets warm the other 2 on each side stay cold as well, i think i may have spotted 2 burnt resistors on the y sustin and surface temps almost reach 100 degrees f on those resistors and the bands are very hard to read...



                                i am starting to wonder if it went from buffers going bad to y sustin then killing the VA voltage on power board...just a wild speculation on my part at this point....


                                i do not understand why the resistors get hot but the heat sink stays cold on the y sustin beats me at this point...and the resistors are right next to the upper and lower buffers....and i cannot find schematics yet still looking....

                                  got some contact cleaner from rat shack and wow expensive $16.00 bucks a can....anyways it made no diffrence whatsoever i spayed and worked the pots back and forth and reset voltage for vs back to 207 volts tried adjusting va does nothing......

                                      Check all board fuses.
                                      Inspect the Va transformer area (third from top.)
                                      Consider replacement of TL431 feedback IC.

                                        my bad resistor on on y sustin
                                        r5600
                                        r5610
                                        the color bands are extremely hard to see the thing is almost black with little bit of tar looking residue at bottom of it's pegs dunno if i should be alarmed about it but the bands are very very hard to tell what color it was to be able to figure out it's value...



                                        got my hands on better camera so hope this helps... well little bit better...not perfect...

                                          Hi everyone,

                                          Brought a non functionnal PS5. Apparently only a bad PSU...
                                          No beep, nothing.

                                          After some tests i found this :
                                          - PSU is fine (12 volts stable)
                                          - 12 volts line is shorted
                                          - DA9065 was fried, F7003 also => Replaced both of them, short is gone on 12 volts line, no dead short anywhere else.
                                          - By the way, nothing change. No signal, no power, no beep.

                                          Mesuring all rails with my workbench psu (12 volts input)
                                          - 0.00 amp drawing
                                          - 12 volts, 5 volts, 2 volts, 1,15 volts are presents (suppose new DA9065 do is...

                                          Vizio M65Q7-H1 Red Vertical Strips fixed by tape blocking LC1 signal to half of the panel

                                          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.



                                          Having recently fixed another Vizio with similar symptoms that was a shorted ESD diode array ( link ) Probed the ESD diode array but...

                                          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...

                                          Dead Dell Latitude 5420 not receiving 20 volts from USB-C charger

                                          Hello,

                                          Dell Latitude 5420 P137G
                                          Board: LA-K491P REV A01

                                          I have received this laptop which was described as "does not power on or accept charge." Battery shows no sign of charging when charger is plugged in, nor does the board show any signs of life when battery is unplugged and charger is plugged in. No light from the LED at all or any other indications of activity.

                                          Board seems to have no shorts, all power rails are fine and show high resistance.

                                          When charger is plugged in, voltage is present in 3.3V rail but absent in others....

                                          Vizio SmartCast TV software bug that looks like hardware
                                          by howardc64
                                          Bug looks like hardware so thought I posted it here. Exact same behavior on 2 different model 4K Vizio TVs running their SmartCast smarttv software. After launching youtube app, press vizio button on remote to return to the smarttv menu, once in awhile, a column of bad pixels will show for few seconds on the left hand side.



                                          It seems the vizio software is reinitializing hardware when returning to the smarttv menu. In general, SmartCast software isn't very good. Also will randomly (relatively infrequent) get no network connection when on wifi and require reboot....
