I was recently given a smaller Vizio TV that has an odd problem. It powers up Ok, but has no channels setup. (says "No Channels in Master List") When I select Menu on either the remote or the switches, the menu comes up and then disappears before any selection can be made. If I connect a DVD player and select the Component input I get picture and sound so I think the power supply and panel must be good.
I suspect a firmware problem, but the info I have been able to find regarding firmware says that these receive updates automatically over the internet.
The "reset to factory defaults" procedure using the buttons doesn't seem to work.
Haven't cracked it open yet, but I am about to.
Any suggestions appreciated.
