    Vizio E601I-A3 dim picture and backlights flashing .

    I was given this set as it was hit by lightning . Found out the Digital main was bad and replaced it . MY original main was a 0170CAR02100 and replaced it with a 0170CAR03100 . Sites said it was interchangeable . The tv worked fine for 2 days then developed a dark picture and can see the backlights flashing . Audio is fine . Wondering if the main board is causing this or my backlights are going bad . Here is a list of the voltages and resistance i've came up with . Any idea's on where to start ?

    Update :
    I got the tv as a dead set with no power at all . Replaced digital main and the tv worked for a few days . I could see a picture but it was dark and the backlights were flashing . It ended up being the backlights . Tv works great now !

      Elitebooks (820, 840 etc. all gens) and those continuously flashing Power LED + flashing CapsLock LED
      by STKR123
      As the Elitebooks (820, 840 all gens) only show flashing Power LED and flashing CapsLock (continuously) + a very soft "ticking" noise near the DC Jack,
      I wonder if re-flashing the BIOS might be of any use here.

      As far as I understood, steady flashing either means insufficient power or a CPU/GPU/Motherboard issue. I use the original 65watt power supply.

      There are so many threads out there, but most of the solutions involve flashing codes, which I dont have or claim that you MUST use the original power supply, do a hard reset, reseat the RAM, clean the RAM,...

      LG 50lb6100 flashing backlights unsusual fix!
      by rddube
      Hello everyone,

      Thought I'd share this find for the repair of an LG tv which had started to turn on but would only get flashing backlights. Backlights would flash at a few second intervals, and when I opened it, noticed that only the 3 bottom rows were flashing, the 2 top rows were completely dead. Replaced a few burnt leds (tested with my led tester), put everything back together, tested all led strips and they were all good, but again the 3 bottom rows would go into this flashing cycle.

      Read all the discussions on the web and on Badcaps (wonderful forum!!) and...

      Panasonic TX-55CX400B backlights flashing on and off
      by Bloopeta
      Hi peeps, have a Panasonic TX-55CX400B here, guy I got it from said he tried to turn it on other day, and no backlights.

      When I received it last night, I plugged it in, and it came straight on and appeared to be working fine, so knowing this would only be temporary, I left it running for a good few hours, and they eventually went off. I tried turning it off and back on again, and this time the backlights started flashing at a steady continuous pace. So I turned it off and left it overnight as it was getting late.
      This morning when I turned it on, same problem, backlights...

      Polaroid p49fn0038k backlights flashing split second
      by Chrissygizmo
      Hi all, I have a polaroid p49fn0038k, I originally thought the problem was just a straight forward backlight replacement, however this isn't the case..

      When I power it up, the backlights flash on for a split second, I've tested the backlight strips and all are fine, I can see the polaroid symbol on the screen using a torch light....

      Any help would be greatly appreciated

      Thanks in advance

      JVC lt-42em73 Flashing Backlights
      by JunkmanJimbo
      First I replaced the backlights. Then I found three bulging capacitors, one leaking, on the power supply board. Now, when I turn on the tv, the picture flashes with an image and then the picture goes away. I can unplug the tv and plug it back in, turn it on and the same thing happens. Please help. Thanks!
