Re: No Power problem with Vizio E60-E3



well, I didn't bother with the test, but figured instead "in for a penny, in for a pound" and ordered a main board.

We'll see if that was foolish or not early next week when it arrives.

I figured, how many other parts could it possibly be? I think the only two other things I could buy are the "tconn" board and the actual power switch board, and it sounds like of those two, only the switch could be causing my symptoms -- so, 50-50 chance, not bad odds....

Re: No Power problem with Vizio E60-E3



I had my multimeter in the wrong mode (AC instead of DC). I'm getting 16V from the two 16V pins and 5V from the ps-on with the main board disconnected... welp, live and learn.

I'm going to try to do some recommended troubleshooting to narrow the problem to the mainboard but sounds like a mainboard issue

Re: No Power problem with Vizio E60-E3

Thanks for all the responses, I didn't get a chance to crack it back open yesterday, but the vendor who I purchased the replacement from said they would send me another board if I could verify that there is no standby power. Not sure I've done that with the pin out readings, but I'm going to try to crack it again today.

Will look through all the thread suggestions -- any other readings I can take from this board that would help validate no standby power?

Thanks for the response! Apologies for not being more specific -- I was rushing to post this before getting the kids off to school.

The 0V on the main board out pins _is_ with the main board unhooked, just power attached....

Hi all:

I have a Vizio E60-E3 I am trying to troubleshoot a no power problem with. Thanks to the help on this board and elsewhere, I was pretty sure I had narrowed it to a power board problem. The board in question is a 09-60CAP0D0-00. Image attached for reference, but not of my board (tv is put away at the moment). FWIW, no obvious looking issues with the board.

I measured voltage at power in and on the fuse and saw 120V, so power is getting to the board.

On the pins out to the main board, I got no voltage at all on any of the pins. I assumed this...

Hi:

Introducing myself to gain post access.

I have been trying to fix no power problem with a Vizio E60-E3 and have found that this forum is the best source of information for troubleshooting, but I think I've gotten to the point where I need more specific advice. Super excited to learn more about fixing electronic components, one of the few things I've avoided fixing myself so far.
