    Vizio E550VL Main Board Issues

    The main board sends 2.77 vdc to CN201 PS_on and the PS turns on.
    CN202 and CN203 have 24.72 to invertors.CN204 has 17.8vdc to main board
    The Main board J1 pin12 sends "A "command to PS (1.022vdc) not enough to turn on the inverters for backlights. I can jumper (5vdc through a 1k om resistor) to A on PS and the backlights come on when main board is disconnected and jumpered to turn it on.
    The OSD Menu does not work when all is hooked back up. cant see video when using a flashlight on screen. There also is no audio. I checked all the voltage regulators on the topside of board and appear to be fine.
    There appears to be an intermittant 5v standby when connected to main board. When testing the PS without the main it works every time.
    Does anyone have a schematic? or suggestions? I am sure that the main board 3655-0152-0150(4D) is the culprit. Seems to have several issues like loading the 5vdc standby but nothing overheats ans smokes, does not give command to turn on backlight even though the 24vdc is good. Last no OSD
    Menu. EEPROM?? Any insight is appreciated. Thanks

      Thinking EEprom possibly or look for any open fuses on the mainboard. Also any voltage regulators that may be out of spec.
      Did I leave the soldering iron on?

          U18 comes to mind.. It's the 8 pin IC located in the white box by the main MediaTEK processor. I had this problem a few times, most recently with an LG 47" LED backlit

              Hello freakaftr8,

              Could you pin point where this U18 chip is located? I'm planning to buy a E550VL that it displays the vizio logo when its turned on and that's it.
              I'm thinking its the eeprom, but instead of buying a mainboard, I can replace the eeprom, but I cannot find the U18 on the pics. I do not know if the TV has mainboard 3655-0152-0150 or 3655-0162-0150.

              Thanks for your help

                  That is a different board, I don't think this one, has that U18 IC.

                      Hello tibimakai,

                      I did find the U18 IC. It was on the back of the board.

                      Thanks for your help.

                          Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?
                          by jb_Bak
                          Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

                          Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
                          Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
                          CN6401
                          Pin 01 NC
                          Pin 02 NC
                          Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
                          Pin 04 "N/C"
                          Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
                          Pin 06 "GND": N/C
                          Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...

                          Hi and thanks in advance for any input you might provide!
                          I have a Sceptre U550CV-UMRD8POTV83BB 4K LED (this is a dumb tv) that I bought new in August 2021, so It's just completed 3 years.
                          Main power board model: TP.MS3683.PC821 T-Con board: N4TP546UHDPU2L_BO

                          Last Sunday I was watching a dvd and fell asleep for about half hour, when I awoke the tv screen was black and couldn't get the dvd menu to show, so I changed the input to antenna and had sound but no picture, turned it off. I then got online and found this great site! ....read many troubleshooting tips and this...

                          (SOLVED) - ONN 100012588 No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change

                          Issue: No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change

                          Short answer: replace main board and power board
                          Technical answer: replace main board and Q306 & Q307 on power board.

                          Long answer:

                          TV wouldn't turn on. Power switch was fine which means the main board isn't processing the power on signal. Replaced main board. TV turns on now but randomly reboots. Bad main board? EEPROM? Tried to pull main board and got a shock touching the corner of the board. That's weird. C334 (450V 10uf) capacitor is still holding a high charge....

                          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...

                          Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board
                          by advant
                          This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

                          I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...
