Re: VW42LHDTV10A sound but, no picture

GOOD NEWS!!! i fixed my TV... both master and slave inverters came in the mail..took 5 mins to install then...wallah!!! my picture came back..so im guessing one of my inverters went bad not sure which one it was so i just changed both...it only costed me $125 for both boards and for shipping...so i saved about $300-400 by doing it myself...thanks for all the feedback!!

Re: VW42LHDTV10A sound but, no picture

the blue light came from a led on the master board,but it only happen once(when i turned it on for the 1st time in a long time)....then when i tried to take resistance readings on it i got a open..so maybe that went bad,im not too sure...
yeah i did the flashlight test...its completely black i cant see anything...i priced both master/slave boards and it came out to $120 plus the $13 i already spent on a solder kit/2 new caps...so all together its gonna cost around $135-$150...thats much cheaper than sending it to a repair shop......

okay i have a 42'' Vizio that i brought about 3years ago..it recently went out (no pop sound) just went black..the sound was still there but no picture at all..everything was functional..power on/off ,volume,changed the channel that also worked...just couldnt see anything...so after much research i decided it was a bad inverter board...i opened up my TV and notice 2 bad caps on the slave board..so i changed those out,thinking i was good...but STILL no picture..so i then checked to see if i had 24vdc goin to the master board and the slave board via the power board...which i did...so now im confused..its...
