    Vizio m3d650sv strange power-on issue

    Its at firmware revision: 2.17.0.1100
    Plugged in the LAN cable and only apps updated. Apparently there is a newer firmware.

    Anyway, at odd times if I have the power cable unplugged, the TV will get stuck on the vizio logo. It doesn't seem like it happens when its powered on but did do it once plugged in.

    I hafto unplug it and plug it back in for it to get past the vizio logo sometimes.


    Any advice? There's no reset button, a few caps looked bulged but not leaking on the main board.

    Any way I can get it to update its firmware?

      Update: I powered it off and now it won't even power on. The vizio light is just amber.

          If you have any freeze spray, (or use caned air duster upside down) and with the tv UNPLUGGED, freeze the eeprom ic on the main board, wait about 10 seconds, plug the tv IN and try turning it on, if this works the eeprom ic is giving the problem.

                  Surface Pro 7 type 1866 PD controller firmware issue
                  by titomno2
                  Hi guys,

                  Hope you are fine.
                  I'm struggling to fix a small issue with one of the tablet Surface Pro 7 type 1866 i'm fixing (windows 11).
                  The boot time is so long (up to 5-10 minutes).
                  After several attempt I finally find one thing is not right (PD controller firmware is 0.0.0 it can't update to 3.6.1) under device manager I have a yellow mark, code 14 and error as decribed on picture attached.
                  I don't find any information regarding the error code 0x1803 (and sometimes it change to 0x1804.
                  In the past I have found that if the update is a success, the boot...

                  Vizio m601d-a3 backlight issue
                  by Mectronik
                  Hello, I'm working on a Vizio m601d-a3 with a backlight issue that I am having a difficulty diagnosing it. As it sits, the tv powers on, displays the Vizio symbol and with nothing hooked up it will then display no signal but you can only see half of the screen. I know it's a back light issue because the picture is there without light behind it, as I can see it by doing a light test. I've taken off the paneling and done a visual inspection. If I disconnect the tcon ribbon cable to the affected side then the entire half of the screen goes away. I've checked voltages at the LED driver from the main...

                  Vizio P759-G1, Tcon issue?
                  by EazyBone
                  Got this TV free. Guy said it tries to turn on and doesn't. I haven't seen this specific issue before but shown in video. Any way to test the screen to rule it out on these Vizio? Or anyone seen this issue before?

                  Any help appreciated

                  Vizio E65-E1 strange image issue
                  by remmurdmd
                  Hi everyone. First new thread here. I picked up a TV on the side of the road. It appears to function correctly with the exception of an image issue I'm unable to describe. I've searched for “double picture” and “double image” all over the web and all I get is repair videos for when the picture is blurry and the connections are getting interference between the display panels and the t-con board. I believe this is a t-con board issue, but I haven't found anything telling me conclusively that this is where my issue is. I'd appreciate any assistance you can provide. I live a pretty busy life...

                  43 inch tv firmware issue.The board is cv338h-t42

                  Hello all. I would like some help on installing a firmware on tv..
                  4 days ago i changed a channel and the image became complete blue and the tv unresponsive. No matter what i did ( like unplugging the power , press the power button for minutes etc etc nothing helped) Then i had an idea to flash it via usb. The brand is very uncommon (smarttech) so i had hard time finding the right firmware. i ended downloading 2 just in case. I flashed the first one with usb and pressing the power button like 5 times. The installation was successful and tv worked ok with some little problems that right...
