    Vizio vx32l black screen no backlight

    I have Vizio 32 model vx32l at first the tv had no voltages coming out from power supply to main board.I found it had a bad fuse one of those round ones 5a 250v.I replaced it and now I am getting 5v to my main board.There are two fuses on main board one has 5v when tv is pluged in.when I power the tv on the other fuse is suppose to have 12v but it has nothing.It looks like the power supply is not putting out 12v.I am thinking something in the power supply took out the main fuse that I replaced.If any one has any idea or a schematic of the power board so I can trouble shoot it.i have not been able to find one the service manual I have downloaded does not have the schematic.I know the sell a repair kit for power supply so it may be a common problem.Thanks

    Re: Vizio vx32l black screen no backlight

    are you checking the fuses with your meter in diode mode?, should read 000 or close to it, if you get ol or no change on meter then it's probably bad, can you post some good clear pics. of the boards, careful when working with power supply "HIGH VOLTAGE".

        if you turned it on and your new fuse didn't blow thats a good sign.

          "There are two fuses on main board one has 5v when tv is pluged in.when I power the tv on the other fuse is suppose to have 12v but it has nothing.It looks like the power supply is not putting out 12v.I am thinking something in the power supply took out the main fuse that I replaced.If any one has any idea or a schematic of the power board so I can trouble shoot it."
          The power supply is not going to put out the switched 12V, 24V (if power supply is OK) until it gets the PS_ON signal from the main board.
          You need to verify if you have PS_ON (>2.5VDC) or not when power switch is activated. These VIZIO are known for having bad Voltage regulator ICs on the main board.

            It tried the light bulb trick the light stays on for about a minute then turns off.I think that is what is saving my fuse from blowing.budm I will check my ps-on to see if I have any voltage.

              I don't know how I missed this.looks like something shorted out.i place the power supply back to see where short matches the board.and it is on a bolt that holds a heat sink into place the middle on to be exact.the only two components I see on the chip are q10 and q2 part number k2843.Look at pics.thanks

                  I cannot tell from the picture, it is too out of focus for me to see.

                    Re: Vizio vx32l black screen no backlight

                    Well here is a lesson learned maybe it was a power surge or who knows.I took out the heat sink since it is just screwed and u soldered the mosfets.They tested ok in diode mode they would switch on and off and where not grounded.The main fuse was bad.but everything seemed ok.I could here the power supply switch on.I Checked the power switch power it was low then when I powered on it would raise to 1.7volts then it was gone.I keep on noticing that my light bulb would go bright then it would cut off every time I hit the power switch.I started thinking this light bulb is acting like tv when turn it off then it shuts off.So I took thing off my power cord and hooking power direct to the wall.bingo the tv turned on.I am guess some how the bulb was taking away power from tv and the protection circuits where kickin in.Maybe bulb to small 60watts or new gf outlet on the set up.Tv is up and running will just have to see if fuse will blow again.For now time to enjoy tv.😄

                          You use 60~75W for checking when TV is in standby to see if the bridge rectifier, the STBY power supply are OK or not, to go full power you will need at least 150~200W.

                              One of my short indicator has two lamps sockets so I can easily add the lamps as needed.

                                  Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                                  My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                                  This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

                                  Hi,

                                  I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...

                                  Power supply board BN44-00618A keeps blowing main fuse and nothing plugged in to it.
                                  I was gifted a 64PN5500AF, picture was amazing, but tv smelled like cigarettes and was dusty AF. I opened it up, blew all the dust out of it, removed PSB & main, and cleaned the metal underneath. Also blew all the dust off all other boards. Put the power supply back in, then mainboard. Soon as I turned it on there was a "pop".
                                  The main fuse (T12AH250V) blew
                                  I removed the power supply to be sure nothing underneath, all good. Soldered on a t12ah250v fuse and sure enough it popped...

                                  I'm currently trying to diagnose and fix my Vizio TV (Model M50-C1). I've tried a number of different basic solutions, but I'm trying to determine if my issue is currently a failing panel, T-Con board, or main board (or something else entirely) and whether or not it is worth my time to fix it. Details of the issue and what I've tried are below as well as why I think it is either a bad panel, T-Con board, or main board.

                                  The Issue: The TV will be on and working fine but after the TV is on for ~5-10 minutes the screen will freeze (with sound continuing) until the TV reboots itself. While...

                                  My Oled Tv is 55inch tv, 3 days ago I notice that middle of the screen is getting warmer and on picture I have ghosting, missing red color. Color red was still displaying, but it was not so strong as corners of the screen and watching some movies makes me angry.
                                  Then I get an idea to take it apart and clean boards from dust.
                                  In side of Tv was not so bad, I take compressed air in can, and gently blow up.

                                  Also I was thinking to styrofoam sponge to isolate power board from screen that the middle of the screen will not worm so much. Because Led on screen when gets higher...
