    Vizio 390-A1

    I have this Vizio 39" lcd , When the power button is pressed the power led lights but thats about it, looks like the eeprom could be corrupt. Power supply is working fine.

    The main board is a 705TXCSM046 It uses a Winbond 25Q64FVSIG eeprom.

    Does anyone have a copy of this eeprom?

    and has anyone used a MX25L6406E as a replacement/Sub, It looks like it should work.

      It was the flash that was bad, programming and replacing it repaired the tv.
      Thank me very much

        Nice fix, by programming and replacing, do you mean a firmware update? please excuse the noob question.

          So how did you go about getting the firmware and programming the chip? Source for the firmware?

            Re: Vizio 390-A1

            First I tried programming a chip from a different model vizio_e371e I found here, and as expected it did'nt work, would not even turn on the power led. I then read the original chip, and programmed a new one, installed it and the tv worked, so maybe having the different model chip installed did something or maybe the original chip had a problem. I don't know. Everything seems to be working fine now, but I know these Vizios can act wierd sometimes.
            I know one other thing and that is after programing the new flash, installing it in the tv, removing it and reading it, there is a slight difference in the 2 files, so the tv does write to part of it, I believe most of the tv settings are stored in the other eeprom (u408) on the board

                RJ can you please explain the flashing and programming of the chip, I have the same tv with the same problem and would like to fix it if this is the solution.

                However I need to know how, and what chip to reprogram, and obviously the software to reprogram it and the file or firmware it needs to have flashed onto it. Please explain.

                Thanks, Corey.

                  Damaged EEPROM on TV Vizio E320-A0
                  by edgarmg15
                  Hi everyone

                  I´m trying to repair a TV Vizio E320-A0 that I found in the street

                  The symptoms are it doesn't respond with remote or buttons, the LED indicator is always off and also there is no image on the TV.

                  The power supply board works fine (I probed the terminals with my multimeter) but in the main board the EEPROM doesn't works correctly because the voltage on the pins doesn't match with the parameters of the datasheet.

                  So, I´m going to replace the EEPROM with a new one, but the problem is that my programmer (CH341a)...

                  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 a320-a0 eeprom
                  by RDC55
                  Hi everyone,

                  I was trying to repair this Vizio 32 inch and have isolated it to the EEPROM. The symptoms are it does not respond to the power button and so no backlights or any indication that the button was even pressed. Applying freeze spray to the EEPROM while the set is unplugged, and then plugging it in and all is well.

                  Now I know I can buy pre-programmed EEPROMS for $15.00 or so, but I wanted to do this myself. So, the original EEPROM is Winbond 25Q64FSIG. I ordered this but received a 25Q64JSIG, which has slightly different timing characteristics. Well, being hopeful...

                  93C46 and 93C56 EEPROM
                  by SidneyCanadas
                  I tore apart my instrument cluster for my 2008 Toyota Corolla made in 2007 in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada and pcb location: IC6=EEPROM is a surface mounted device with part # of 93C46W7, some claim the EEPROM out of a Camry part # 93C56 will allow odometer to roll over 299 999 KM or miles. The data sheet for both is below:

                  Anyone know if the Camry one will work on my Corolla?. And which EEPROM reader/writers do you all recommend I purchase that will allow me to read the old values of the old...
