    Vizio XVT3sv

    I'm thinking about buying this led TV 47". Before the decision is made, is there known issues with this series that some may have encountered? There's a chance it could be the main-board, by the information given to me: "No picture, but back lights work". There isn't much information out there or any known major problems with this series. There was some mention about the "transistors" perhaps, FETS or voltage regulators, going bad on the main board as well as a shorted fuse. Not sure if the fuse was on the P.S. or the main board. Or maybe it's a good idea to just stay away from the deal-They're asking around 100.00 plus.

    Anyway, any suggestions or information would be appreciated.

      Well, I decided not to get this one. Reading the Vizio XVT series threads, the main board is the likely candidate for replacement. FETS, Voltage regulators, EEPROMS and in one case an IC chip were bad. In most cases, they just replaced the board. I really don't want to invest in buying a main board along with the original purchase price of the TV right now with Christmas coming up.

      Anyway, just wanted to let you all know what my decision was. Thanks again.

          Is it possible to upgrade from a Vestel 17MB97 main board to a 17MB110 Main board?
          by cheeky2
          I suppose the real question is whether the existing pinouts from ether a 17IPS71 psu are cross compatible with a 17IPS12 psu? If they are then the exchange of the main boards should have no issues providing the screen is compatible with both main boards. Obviously you can change the screen configurations easily enough (providing you have the correct files) for the main board. Why may you ask would I do this? Well a lot of the smart features are no longer working on a Hitachi 48HBT62U main board I wish to give it a new lease of life!
          Obviously the same LVDS connector for the screen connection...

          Vizio D50u-D1 Dead: PSU or Main Board?
          by fharris1977
          Hi. Anyone who has experience with these vizio sets, which pin on this connector is the standby, the 5V pin? Trying to rule out the PSU before ordering a mainboard. I'm getting 0 Volts on all pins on this connector. Trying to jump the standby and PS ON pins to see if the PSU is functioning. Thanks in advance.

          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...
