    Vizio E470VL No Backlight & Mystery Part.

    Hey Folks,

    Have Two Problems.

    Vizio E470VL that is showing following problem.

    Plug in A/C and will see "Vizio" Amber Logo. Turn on power with either onboard switch or remote and Vizio Logo turns white, but no back light & no video signal on LCD. (Flashlight trick)

    Testing power supply rail, I have all 5v, all 12v, PSON 3.2v, Status 3.4v, Dim spikes at start up to 3.2v and slides down to 1.2v, and B/L-on 0v. and after 45-50 seconds TV returns to Stby.

    Removed "U33" out of circuit and tested...OK.

    So...Seems that I have all but B/L-on signal from main board.

    What should I look for at component level on that B/L circuit?

    Main Board PN 3647-0292-0150 (3L)

    Power Board PN 0500-0400-1290, which replaced OEM Board PN 0500-0412-1000, as per "ShopJimmy" recommendations.

    Second Problem...Does anyone know what this part (Photo "Mystery Part" Board labeled "TC2") used to be? I say used to be because when I removed it off the board and was trying to check it with a DMM, it sprang to life out of the jaws of my alligator clip holding fixture and entered the fifth dimension. Reason I pulled it was I was getting 12v on one end, and Zero on the other. It had no writing on it, and looked like a very small fuse.

    Thanks Much!

    Ok, Mystery Solved. The Part is not a cap, it's a 1Amp 40v Schottky Diode.

    The Gremlin returned it! But had a heck of a time tracking the number.

    Super great people at Digikey tech service.
