    Vizio VP503 color issue..

    Hello all!

    I've been tinkering with TV's for a awhile, and with the help of this forum, have been pretty successful on repair. I have a new issue I haven't seen before. Its a Vizio VP503.. the screen looks fine upon initial turn on, but when it goes to the input (TV, HDMI... doesn't matter)... the color gets all saturated and distorted. Has anyone dealt with this before? Is it repairable? Thanks in advance for the help!!

    Looks like t-con failure.


    If the menus appear as normal then it would suggest mainboard fault.
    If the menus are also appearing strange it will be the t-con.

    If it has a mainboard/tcon combined then it's that.

      Thanks for the reply! The menus are fine. Not sure if the Tcon is seperate. I'll do some research. Thanks!!!

        I got another main board... but unfortunately same thing. The menu's seem fine... but any input (HDMI, CABLE, ETC) are like the pic I attached. Any other ideas?

          Vizio m601d-a3 backlight issue
          by Mectronik
          Hello, I'm working on a Vizio m601d-a3 with a backlight issue that I am having a difficulty diagnosing it. As it sits, the tv powers on, displays the Vizio symbol and with nothing hooked up it will then display no signal but you can only see half of the screen. I know it's a back light issue because the picture is there without light behind it, as I can see it by doing a light test. I've taken off the paneling and done a visual inspection. If I disconnect the tcon ribbon cable to the affected side then the entire half of the screen goes away. I've checked voltages at the LED driver from the main...

          Vizio P759-G1, Tcon issue?
          by EazyBone
          Got this TV free. Guy said it tries to turn on and doesn't. I haven't seen this specific issue before but shown in video. Any way to test the screen to rule it out on these Vizio? Or anyone seen this issue before?

          Any help appreciated

          Vizio E65-E1 strange image issue
          by remmurdmd
          Hi everyone. First new thread here. I picked up a TV on the side of the road. It appears to function correctly with the exception of an image issue I'm unable to describe. I've searched for “double picture” and “double image” all over the web and all I get is repair videos for when the picture is blurry and the connections are getting interference between the display panels and the t-con board. I believe this is a t-con board issue, but I haven't found anything telling me conclusively that this is where my issue is. I'd appreciate any assistance you can provide. I live a pretty busy life...

          Issue with 42 Vizio TV
          by derrickcaputo
          Hello,
          I have a 42" Vizio TV. I hooked my tablet to the HDMI inputs. Everything was fine until the screen went black and now the only input that works on the TV is coax. No hdmi, no component, no rca. I tried hooking up a laptop to the Hdmi port and the computer
          detected the TV model but no image.

          Is there anyone having the same issue? Did you find any solution?

          Interesting E60-E3 (Vizio) issue
          by bscottjohnston
          Good morning BadCappers,

          I picked up a Vizio E60-E3 yesterday. The donator claimed that it never powered on and that he checked Voltages at the power supply. I checked a handful of Voltages and then laughed when I realized I was trying to turn it on via the menu button on the back of the TV when its upside down on my TV repair bed (literally my guest bedroom).

          Okay so I took out the mainboard and decided to flux up the BGA and heat it up. Upon reinstall of the mainboard the TV does indeed power up but all of the screens have a blue hue AND the video displayed fails...
