Re: Vizio VS42L -- Pop and no video

Ok, thanks! I'll go track one down. Looks like ShopJimmy is out of stock, unfortunately...

Re: Vizio VS42L -- Pop and no video

The power supply is part DPS-283BP. Here's a link to the part from ShopJimmy:

I'm suspecting that the chip itself was ok, and that something else caused too much juice to flow through there...Re: Vizio VS42L -- Pop and no video<... that the chip

I have a 2008 vintage Vizio VS42L television. Last night while watching, it emitted a *pop* and the screen went dark. No sound, no video.

When I plug the unit in, I hear a relay click, and the logo LED comes on. When I press the "power" button, I hear another click, but no display/sound.

I pulled the power supply and the main board. No defects were apparent on the main board. On the power supply, I found this chip. Image attached.

This doesn't look normal...

With everything installed and the tv on, I get the 5V standby,...
