    Vizio E370VL - amber logo

    Amber logo only. After sitting unplugged for an hour or more it will turn from amber to white. A couple of times the backlight will actually come on.
    Was so hoping replacing the eprom would fix, but same thing. After installing the eprom the screen lit up to green with lines going through it, but after a few seconds went back to white logo only.
    I've read about voltage regulators, but don't know what specs they should be at. Thanks for any thoughts.
    (is it also possible I didn't solder the eprom thoroughly?)

    I went back and touched up the eprom with solder to insure I had good contacts. TV fired right up 4 to 5 times. I hooked it up to cable line and picture was great. About 2 minutes later the screen went snowy with multi-color horizontal lines while simulataneously making a static screaching noise.

    I did check the regulators and not getting any readings on two of them (U8 and U5). U4 has reading of 2.05; 3.28; 5.34.

    Anybody have any thoughts? Thanks.

      Vizio E701i-A3 Vizio logo flashing then turns off
      by Super360
      Ok so here's the story. I was watching tv one day when all of a sudden I heard a pop from the back of the tv set and rushed to unplug the set. By this time the tv already had smoke coming out the back. It was not storming or inclement weather that day to cause a power surge to the best of my abilities. When I opened the tv up, I found that the three capacitors on the psu (highlighted in red) were all bulging and looked they had exploded. I replaced all of them right away and when I went to start up the tv after the "fix" it started just showing the flashing vizio logo as soon as power...

      Vizio V555-G1 stuck on wallpaper; now stuck on V logo
      by x_orange90_x
      I just got this tv today and it's getting stuck on the wallpaper. When I first power it on it goes to the V logo, then a black screen for about 15 seconds, then a Chromecast error for just a few seconds, and then finally to a wallpaper. It stays frozen on this wallpaper and does not respond to anything on the remote besides power on/off. Likewise the buttons on the tv do nothing either (besides power). I did the "reset" by holding the volume down and input buttons together for 10 seconds. It showed a message at the top of the screen saying it was Wiping Data and would restart soon. After...

      Vizio D32f-E1 Powers on, has backlight, won't boot/no logo, no menu or video
      by JaquesPratt
      I have a Vizio D32f-E1 LCD TV that does NOT have a TCON board.

      This TV recently went through some 'death throes' and now won't boot. The first problem that began to manifest was while watching tv, the screen would 'freeze', and the image would dim over a few seconds until it was very dark. HOWEVER, the audio of the show would continue as normal. I could power off the TV for 5-20 seconds, power back on, and the video would be normal. This would occur 1-3 times when the TV was first started, and would not happen again after the TV was 'warmed up'. Not ideal, but this glitch was manageable....

      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 E701i-A3 stuck at logo, need service manual
      by paulxxxx
      The TV stuck at logo and cannot be turned off unless the cord is unplugged.
      I was given two main boards and exactly the the same thing happens to both of them.
      I have checked all voltages on the connector on the power board that goes into the main board and they all look OK.
      There are no signs of damage on any of the 3 boards.

      Would someone help me with a pointer to the manual? It's supposedly to be the same as E601i-A3.

      Thanks!
