    Vizio E420i-a0 Vertical Lines

    Hello everyone. Fixed a handfull of tv's with this forums help over the years, hoping to add one more to the pile!

    I have a Vizio E420i-a0 that has vertical lines when you turn it on, and DOES have sound. The vertical lines move and change. TV turns on and off fine otherwise.

    I have a few photos of the issue here, and video on youtube:

    Anything else I can check or is this just a mainboard failure - or is this full on panel failure?

    Thanks for the help!

                  it's an LG panel. I can get you more details if you want when I'm back at home. Are you saying keep the backlights for selling them?

                          Vizio E70-E3 Two white vertical lines
                          by brad2157
                          I picked up a Vizio E70-E3 for free that shows Vizio logo and then goes to a black screen. Original owner said he started having wifi issues and then he tried to reset the TV and that's when it wouldn't boot up any longer after his reset attempt. I picked up a replacement main board from eBay that matches the same model # board as the original from the TV.

                          Original main board - Shows Vizio logo when TV powers on, then goes to black screen. Doesn't boot up. No screen issues with any lines on start up Vizio logo.

                          Replacement main board - Boots up fine, but starting...

                          by viking509
                          I recently replaced the led backlights with LB65041 LED Backlight Strips and after putting it back together the backlights work but there are only colored vertical lines only in the center of the tv. I can see the Netflix logo (jumbled) after a minute or less the screen went dark. When I turned it on again the lines were back. Then I replaced the t-con board but the same vertical lines in the picture. My question is what is my next step? Could it be a source tab bond issue? A buffer board issue? Could I have loosened a connection to the panel when replacing the backlights? Should I replace the...

                          Sony KDL-40V3000 - Vertical lines
                          by gpo23
                          Hello,

                          i order a t-con because i had bad colors on my SONY KDL-40V3000 :




                          With the new t-con the color are good but there are vertical lines on all the screen :




                          I've tried the old t-con and it returned to the initial issue (bad colors but no vertical lines)

                          Is there a way to fix the vertical lines on the new t-con ?

                          Thank you for your help

                          Vizio E55-F1 dark backlight zones. LED failure or Dimming Zone Driver?

                          Problem

                          Fixing a dimming zone TV with LEDs not lighting up. Dimming zone circuit introduces added variable to diagnose LED and/or Dimming Zone Driver board? Some 1/2 rows of LEDs appears to be out in active dimming zone off AND some brightness flickering with active dimming zone high while playing changing video

                          Conflicting Spec

                          Vizio indicate this TV has 10 dimming zones. However, LED strips and Zoned light driver connector suggest 12

                          by Firentiosi
                          Thanks for offering your assistance with this. I'm an electronics enthusiast with moderate level of competence (have a decent lab with two power supplies, microscope, DSO, hot air, good iron, can competently work at a component level on SMDs, design and solder own PCBs etc). I really enjoying fixing things and learning new stuff so took up a free 58" LED TV and have been googling and watching Youtube videos to see if I can fix this! I am happy to go down to individual component replacement/strip replacement etc - it's all in the name of learning.

                          The issues are as follows: the...
