    Vizio e321vl

    I have a VIZIO E321VL that would not do anything. I replaced the Power supply board and now the VIZIO logo lights up amber and changes to white when power button is pushed. I got nothing else. I replaced the main board and still get no sound, no picture and no back light. Both boards were new from Shop Jimmy so I am confident the boards are not the problem. I now have $150 into this TV and it still does not work. BTW I do not have the remote for it. Anyone have any suggestions what to do next?

      We do this as a hobby, so you can't expect a reply in all cases!

      Your fault sounds like either main or power is defective, instead of simply board swapping you can start testing voltages which will save you a lot of money from replacing perfectly good boards. (And yes even boards from SJ can be bad.)
      Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
      For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.

        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...

        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...

        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-D50u-D1 Pulsating Backlights
        by csmith
        This Vizio came in the shop with no backlights. Replaced all the strips with replacement from Shop Jimmy. Set now has backlights but lights pulsate on left side. Half the screen brightens up then goes to normal then repeats.
        Am I looking at a defective strip? Thanks in advance.
