    Vizio VP50HDTV10A; replaced caps and still intermittently shut off and cycles on/off

    Hello forum!

    I've replaced the 10 common caps (9 of them were obviously bulged) and this TV continues to run for a few minutes and starts to click off and back on over and over again. Sometimes it will run for several minutes and stop shutting off; it seems to be random sometimes, but more often starts to do this once something heats up after the first couple of minutes from a cold state.

    I haven't found any bad solder connections, but I feel like this is likely at this point. I am scratching my head at the thought that replacing all these bulged caps didn't fix it!

    Please help!

      try heating components with hot air gun and spray some freeze coolant on PSU board to see if it will work fine.

          You may have the common "AC detect" fault

              Thanks for the replies; I wanted to post an update. I caved in and went ahead and replaced the Power Supply board and all is well. I did try freezing things on the old PS, but couldn't really get any consistent results and it didn't seem to have the AC detect issue. Thanks for the tips, though! Wish I could have figured out what was wrong with the old Power Supply board.

                  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...

                  Satellite r945-p440 - Hard crash coming out of sleep

                  I do not have a schematic or board file

                  I usually let it go to sleep every time I use it because it is nearly always plugged in, with occasional shutdowns to reset things. Then it started to hard crash every time it tried to come out of sleep. The lights would come on for half a second but before anything shows on the screen they would all shut off and it would boot up as if I had shut it down completely (except that windows knows it didn't), and when it comes back on the fan ramps up to full and stays there perpetually...

                  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 M65Q7-H1 Red Vertical Strips fixed by tape blocking LC1 signal to half of the panel

                  Failure Symptom



                  No picture, just red vertical stripes. Google search shows quite common problem for these recent Vizio M series although red vertical stripe pattern may differ. Some call it "Netflix" boot screen haha.

                  Where is the short?

                  Panel has 4x buffer boards. Quickly found the 1/4 panel buffer board with the problem by selectively disconnecting buffer board flex cables.



                  Having recently fixed another Vizio with similar symptoms that was a shorted ESD diode array ( link ) Probed the ESD diode array but...
