    VW37L inverter ribbon cable removal

    Hey guys. Working on a Vizio for a co-worker that starts flickering after warm. Looks like caps on board are bad. I don't want to mess up the little ribbon cable by pulling on it and I can't see any type of release for the cable. Anyone know how to remove it?

    pull on it. more specifically that little blue tab.
    Things I've fixed: anything from semis to crappy Chinese $2 radios, and now an IoT Dildo....

    Excuse me while i do something dangerous


    You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

    Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

          I've worked on the inverters for this same TV, and goontron is correct. Also, check that fuse - I've seen these caps go (I believe they're the 680uf?) and almost always take the fuse with them.

            Thanks guys. Replaced caps and ran it 9 hours. No more flickering.
