    Vizio TV M70-C3 blink codes

    I was given this TV with little info. Was told that it didn't have a picture. Upon powering it up it displayed the Vizio logo and the menu was able to be displayed. I connected an antenna (OTA), did a channel scan which completed and the picture has been fine for days. The only issue is it has an initial blink code of 23 upon power off, followed by a 19 about 75 seconds later which then repeats the 19 code four more times. I haven't been able to find the process for entering the service menu nor do I have the service manual for this model (I do have the E60-C3 and E70-C3 service manuals but they don't make any reference to the service menu). I did a factory reset, but the blink codes remain. I've searched the forum for info but didn't find any relevant info for this model. Firmware is latest (V1.5.16-UHD). I believe the main board probably has the BGA issue with one or both chips, but it hasn't yet failed of me, but it probably will if given enough time and power cycles.

    Anyone know what the blink codes mean or how to invoke the service menu for this set?

    I've never heard of a 23 or 19 blink code for any tv lol that's too many blinks.
    But yes this set has bad main board bga all the time.. I could only assume it's this because it's so common

      So maybe a corrupt EEPROM? It's very repeatable. Never changes. If I could get to the service menu, I may be able to clear it.

        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 D32f-E1 Powers on, has backlight, won't boot/no logo, no menu or video
        by JaquesPratt
        I have a Vizio D32f-E1 LCD TV that does NOT have a TCON board.

        This TV recently went through some 'death throes' and now won't boot. The first problem that began to manifest was while watching tv, the screen would 'freeze', and the image would dim over a few seconds until it was very dark. HOWEVER, the audio of the show would continue as normal. I could power off the TV for 5-20 seconds, power back on, and the video would be normal. This would occur 1-3 times when the TV was first started, and would not happen again after the TV was 'warmed up'. Not ideal, but this glitch was manageable....

        Vizio M65Q7-H1 – Black screen with sound, LED backlight diagnosis & panel removal question
        by CHARRIS100
        Hi everyone,
        I’m working on a Vizio M65Q7-H1 that stopped displaying a picture but still powers on and plays audio. When the TV is turned on, the VIZIO logo appears very briefly (a split second) and then the screen goes completely dark. I did the flashlight test and can faintly see the logo during startup. Audio continues to work normally, and the TV still responds to the remote.

        I contacted ShopJimmy for advice and was told the symptoms point to a failed LED backlight, so I purchased a full replacement LED strip set for this model:
