    vizio vw37l 10a dead

    hey guys, working on my vizio 37. Im new to this forum and pretty new to fixing TV's so forgive my lack of knowledge in some places. but been deep in electronics for a while. after hours and hours of testing and reading about vizio black screen im stuck and need a hand.
    : power supply 0500-0507-0250

    here is what I know

    vw37lhdtv10a

    Vizio logo on bottom lights up orange and stays orange, power button does nothing, I do not see backlight coming on, I do not see pixels on screen with flashlight.
    all fuses test good. 1 on power supply- 2 on main board- 5 on (tcon?)

    5v at f2 on main
    0v at f1 on main
    pson has.1v on standby 0v when i push power button.

    at j1 i have 5.16v on 9,10,11
    .01v on pin 1
    .01v on pin 13

    no burnt spots anywhere on board
    i see no popped caps whatsoever
    2 caps are questionable on power board c240a and c240b near j22

    plugs to button board seem fine all connections are good.

    u7 i believe is giving a funny reading thats
    leg1 .1v
    leg2 .68v
    leg3 3.24v
    amc1117 fo713j

    all other regulators check out good from what i know

    no sound coming from coils

    the service manual mentions (step 2) troubleshooting
    is it in powersaving mode
    check video cable?
    is timing supported?
    check sync input?
    dont know how to check this

    can someone help me wake this thing up ? ill get a pic up as soon as i can
    thanks

        how do you have 0v on f1 main and 5v on f2?

        Where is the location of f2 on this board?

          U7 might be a clue. Something going in, nothing coming out, either U7 is bad or something drags that circuit down. I can't see anything much on your pix, too blurry.
