Re: Poor Old Vizio (VW26L) Died on Me...

UPDATE!!!!

IN FACT the 10v caps were all bulgy and gross... put them on order and should have them tomorrow (YAY MOUSER!) or Friday.

Hopefully replacing all of those caps will fix it, if nothing else I shall post here after I finish knocking the Crapxon out of my set

Well, here is a picture of *one* of our benches... and some of the equipment I have at my disposal... now if I could only find my box for my TV so I could bring it in!

Should have pics of the boards by weeks end!...

I shall get right on those photos, boards and benches! I also promise to not be a noob... I will use the attachment function instead of ridiculous 73rd party hosted site links. PROMISE!

Hey everyone. I went to turn on my 5+ year old Vizio, Model VW26L, yesterday and much to my chagrin, I received no picture! Upon closer evaluation I noticed that the orange bottom light would go off as it should when I pressed the power button to turn on the tv, but nothing would happen and after a few seconds the orange "off" light would return.

Now it just so happens I have a full electronics bench at my disposal at work, but I do not normally work the floor (I'm the sales director, lol) and only have basic skills myself. I do have my brother's help, and he has repaired...
