Re: Vizio XVT553SV
Hello jetadm123 and newtothis,
Any other suggestions or possible testing areas I should be looking at? It is a very sad commentary on Vizio that the TV went belly up after just exactly 4 years. This wasn't a "cheap" or off brand set...Last edited by Fyreman; 03-30-2015, 12:51 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Vizio XVT553SV
Had all boards out and inspected, used magnifying glass to get the best view possible (old eyes?), nothing to note.
Put boards back in, went the hair dryer route, when TV was first turned on (before using hd), TV was already flickering with horz lines. Used hd to try to knock picture out, no success.
At this time, TV still playing with horz lines (110 minutes).Leave a comment:

All boards? It'll take awhile...Leave a comment:

Re: Vizio XVT553SV
Did that (smelled/sniffed), no odor that would point to it being fried.
This is the weird part:
4) Left TV on, after about 45-60 minutes, picture appears and looks great
5) After 10-15 minutes, picture goes black, but sound is still working
It continues to loop into this cycle.Leave a comment:

Re: Vizio XVT553SV
Thanks for the reply-
When you say pop and crackles as in electric type sound of shorting?- [I]Yes[/I]
When you leave the set off for a while and repeat the above do you again hear pops and crackles? From speaker maybe?- [I]Nothing heard, don't think it's the speakers[/I]
If so looks to be the main at fault but not 100% sure, let one of the other guys chime in- [I]I will and thanks again[/I]Re: Vizio XVT553SV

Vizio XVT553SV
Hello,
I have a Vizio XVT553SV, I got this from my daughter and son-in-law. I'll cut to the chase:
1) TV turns on, great picture and sound
2) Then 90-120 minutes on, screen flickers, horizontal lines appear (see pics), some popping and cracking heard
3) Turned off, waited 30-45 seconds, tried to turn back on, splash V appears, no picture but do have sound
4) Left TV on, after about 45-60 minutes, picture appears and looks great
5) After 10-15 minutes, picture goes black, but sound is still working
I am very willing to follow DETAILED... -
