Vizio Plama 50 inch

[Mongor62]

Let me start off by saying this TV was given to me and i know someone had tried to fix it but i don't think that tried that hard.

I have no clue what the model number is to this TV as the sticker has been removed. The TV symptoms are, when turned on both Y and X boards are humming like plasma's do, there is no picture, and the logic board to my little knowledge is suppose to have a light that blinks like a heart beat and either 2 light stay lit or only one stays lit no blinking at all.

I am looking for some sort of troubleshooting tips. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Turn off all your lights, power the tv on does the screen glow in the dark ?

I don't believe it does but it is light right now and the room is pretty bright. I have it on a surge protector and when i cup my eye on the screen i don't notice any difference when i give it power or turn the TV on.

Make sure the room is dark and see if you get prime glow from the screen.

Now that it is dark here in CA, i have checked it and nothing on the screen comes on. I am not sure if sound comes on but i don't think so.

Once again any help is greatly appreciated.
