    Vizio LCD.. Worth bothering with it ?

    Freebie on Craigslist, I think it is probably toast, but what does semi-transparent mean in this case? Here is the description...

    I have a 46" Vizio tv that's all yours. The catch is that it has a semi-transparent one inch black band across the screen. It's not too bad and we used the tv for months with this issue. It doesn't obscure anything it's just makes everything a little dimmer in that part of the screen.

    Bad panel ? or is it worth playing with ?

      Tab bond. Worth a shot if you want to tear it down.

      Post a pic of the anomaly.

                  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 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 D50u-D1 - Worth repairing?
                  by JDC
                  I'm pretty sure I know the answer but here goes: got a Vizio D50u-D1. I know the main board is bad. I can replace it with a used one for $50 or have it rebuilt for a few dollars more. I just wonder if it's worth it? Just seems to me that another board is going to eventually bake itself to death or the LEDs are going to burn out.

                  I'm thinking no. What do you think?
