Hello!
A friend of mine had brought me a TV to look at, to see if I could figure out what was wrong with it for him. When hitting the power button, it will flash 'Vizio" across the screen for about 1/2 a second, and then go right back off again.
I've already checked the yellow 5v wire going from the power board to the mainboard, and it's reading a solid 5v. So I'm trying to figure out how to proceed, in figuring out what the problem is. There is a very rapid "clicking" sound coming from the power supply board, but it's not very loud. Not sure if that's normal though, as I'm still not as familiar with this department as I'd like to be. And OH YEH, there was also a huge roach nest inside as well, although it seems to have been an old one, as (luckily for me) there wasn't a single live one. I'm going to assume, that the problem has stemmed from that in some way.
I've checked the caps, and none seem to be bad as far as I can tell, but I've included some pics anyway. If you need better ones, please let me know.
