      That is very expensive, not much you can do until the price starts coming down which I think it will due to many people will be buying new TV this month.

        Budm, I am trying to locate a thread you did sometime ago that explains the light bulb useage for power supply testing where the fuse blows repeatdly. Specifically, I am looking for the instructions on how to create it, and also, what would I see in terms of the bulb lighting/not lighting when testing the PSU?

        Any help would be much appreciated.
        Thanks
        Joe

            Hi budm, Have you read or seen any posts mentioning repairing the dead HDMI inputs on the E550VL Vizio? Do I need to do anything about closing this thread?

              Hi and thanks again budm, I ordered a Main Board from Sears Parts. They give a one year guarantee and free shipping for orders over $150.00. No core charge so the partially working old board is here for next time. The board was $135.67 so I bought a drill set they had on special that the order taker sugested for $14.99 to get the free shipping so I will have some drills left over along with my dud board if we ever figure out how to fix the HDMI inputs...geraposi
