Re: VIVO 40" LCD (LTV40FHD) No Picture

Finally had a chance to get back to this one. On closer inspection, It looked as though the caps may have only had their solder joints attempted to be reflowed. The work was pretty shoddy; dry joints and flux residue. I removed the caps, cleaned up the board pads and resoldered the components. Worked a treat.

Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

I have seen a similar thread on this forum; well over a year old so I thought I'd start afresh.
Plugged in to mains gives red status indicator
Power switch pressed changes to blue indicator
No signs of source image or menu display.

This happened just before 12month warranty expired. Set was repaired. The same problem has re-occurred almost 12 months later...must be some weird anniversary thing.

Removed power board and identified caps C34, 36, 41, 42, 43, 44 (see orange circle) had been replaced . . messy soldering. Everything else looks clean,...
