    M470NV Vizio Consistently Spaced Horizontal Lines

    Hello,

    I haven't been able to find the same issue as I am reporting on the forum. I am attaching an image of what the problem looks like. The lines appeared recently a couple of days after moving the tv to a new location. The tv was working perfectly then one morning the lines appeared. I'm thinking something got bumped loose - maybe a ribbon cable from what Ive been reading. The lines go a little thicker then back to their normal size on the lefthand side of the screen producing a very subtle dimming/brightening effect.I have tried replacing the power cable and checking the border of the tv by squeezing around it but the problem remains. If anybody has seen this issue, I'd greatly appreciate any ideas or insights.

    Thank you for your time

      There could be some bad capacitors in one of the power supplies, If the cap. is bad it is not filtering the power supplies ripple and this could show up as lines in the video.

          Vizio E70-E3 Two white vertical lines
          by brad2157
          I picked up a Vizio E70-E3 for free that shows Vizio logo and then goes to a black screen. Original owner said he started having wifi issues and then he tried to reset the TV and that's when it wouldn't boot up any longer after his reset attempt. I picked up a replacement main board from eBay that matches the same model # board as the original from the TV.

          Original main board - Shows Vizio logo when TV powers on, then goes to black screen. Doesn't boot up. No screen issues with any lines on start up Vizio logo.

          Replacement main board - Boots up fine, but starting...

          Vizio V585-J01 dancing lines and image doubling
          by x_orange90_x
          I got this tv yesterday and it shows a screen full of colored vertical bars and horizontal lines that move, change, and dance around. When the set is powered on there is a slight buzz from the tcon. I removed one ribbon at a time and this was the result:

          Right side connected, left side disconnected = half image on right (somewhat distorted, see photo attached) white screen on left. NO buzzing from TCON

          Left side connected, right side disconnected = right side black, left side white with distorted horizontal lines near top of screen. Buzzing from TCON

          I swapped...

          vizio e65 e3 LED tv color vertical lines center tv only
          by viking509
          I recently replaced the led backlights with LB65041 LED Backlight Strips and after putting it back together the backlights work but there are only colored vertical lines only in the center of the tv. I can see the Netflix logo (jumbled) after a minute or less the screen went dark. When I turned it on again the lines were back. Then I replaced the t-con board but the same vertical lines in the picture. My question is what is my next step? Could it be a source tab bond issue? A buffer board issue? Could I have loosened a connection to the panel when replacing the backlights? Should I replace the...

          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...

          by rapid911
          Hi guys, I have a Vizio M58Q7-J01 and now there are some colored horizontal lines on the screen. Could someone tell me if it's probably a panel issue or something related to other parts and can be fixed? Thank you in advance....
