    VIZIO E190VA No video/audio half the power light is illuminated

    Vizio E190VA took lightning strike or power surge. No video nor audio although one half the power on indicator does illuminate. Readings on power supply board are acceptable for the listed voltages, however pin 1 and o/f dim pins show zero volts. All diodes on the board are within proper range. No caps appear bulged or blown. Can anyone tell me where to find specs for the proper voltages on pin 1 and o/f dim pin, if there is supposed to be voltage to those? Any help on this voltage question, and general help in diagnosis on this TV, would be greatly appreciated.

    ON/OFF = BL-ON, >2V = ON, <1V = OFF
    DIM: it will vary with backlights level setting, typical <1 V min backlights, 5V = max backlights.
    Those two control signals are controlled by the Logic board.

      Thanks. Makes sense since the remaining voltages on the power board are within range. Interesting that the power board survived a power surge but the logic board did not. May well have been the cable tv that took the hit, but those are usually well grounded to keep their equipment safe. But, I do remember the first rules of electronics: just about anything can happen with electrons and nothing is as simple as one may think! Logic board is out of stock, so I need to diagnose the problem on the logic board. Any idea where I can find a schematic with voltage readings? Rebuild kit (only the EEPROMs) is available. So, if I can find the readings for the logic board I can possibly diagnose the problem and repair. Again thanks for the help, and hopefully future help.

        Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
        by Tynan Dill
        I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

        Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

        I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

        The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

        With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

        Assuming...

        Vizio D32f-E1 Powers on, has backlight, won't boot/no logo, no menu or video
        by JaquesPratt
        I have a Vizio D32f-E1 LCD TV that does NOT have a TCON board.

        This TV recently went through some 'death throes' and now won't boot. The first problem that began to manifest was while watching tv, the screen would 'freeze', and the image would dim over a few seconds until it was very dark. HOWEVER, the audio of the show would continue as normal. I could power off the TV for 5-20 seconds, power back on, and the video would be normal. This would occur 1-3 times when the TV was first started, and would not happen again after the TV was 'warmed up'. Not ideal, but this glitch was manageable....

        Panasonic TX-P42G30E green light blinking, no video, no audio
        by ItepK
        Hey everyone!

        I've gotten this TV for free, neither have it seen a TV repair man, neither have it been opened before.

        This post describes my entire troubleshooting process of this TV.

        When I turn it on using the ON/OFF switch at the side of the TV, the light rapidly flashes green, then it stays on, but it does not react to any of the remote buttons, side buttons, and doesn't play audio.

        I've taken the unit apart, and I've started to check some voltages:

        • On the P11 connector, there is 15V DC only for a brief moment, then it goes

        Vizio E550i-A0 no power, no standby light
        by x_orange90_x
        I have a Vizio E550i-A0 that will not power on. It also does not display the standby light in the corner. I disconnected the main board cable to see if the backlights would light but they did not (maybe this is normal for this set?). I checked the voltages on the plug and they all read in mV or 0, so there's no voltage there. The fuses are ok, and the voltages of the 450v caps read about 160v. I see no visual damage on either the power supply or main board. I have read online that the main board is usually the culprit in this model, but not getting backlights with the main disconnected makes me...
