        Look to see what was done to the board by the previous owner, you may see poor soldering works, burnt parts, etc.

            ok finally got the cap.... it is installed..... reads about 78

            plugged in, turned on....and nothing.....

            fuse is blown.... no continuity....i removed it from the wafer and need to know if i should just jumper it?

            really p's me off that they do this. a standard fuse is so much more practical, but i guess they gotta sell tv's

                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...
                ORIGINAL POWER SUPPLY BOARD

                Vizio M65-C1
                by mrtek
                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...

                Razor Blade Steath 13" RZ09-01963 plugged in Not Charging (new battery)
                by Shinju
                Hey All!

                Long time forum member here with a problematic laptop issue!

                I got a RZ09-0196 with a bloated battery (still worked and charged fine) I pulled the old cell pack out and installed a new cell pack in its place.

                The laptop would not power on with the new battery installed without the power supply being plugged in.

                When booting into Win10 (all up to date BTW) I saw the battery icon with 49% plugged in not charging.

                TL;Dr version, old battery worked, charged but was bloated, installed a new non OEM replacement, laptop/windows...

                Vizio M65Q7-H1 Red Vertical Strips fixed by tape blocking LC1 signal to half of the panel
                by howardc64
                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 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....
