Re: Vizio VX552XVT Screen Flashing on and off
So I replaced the power module and the TV is back up and running! The backlight is still dark in some areas of the screen still. I dont think its a screen issue because some parts that were dark before are lit up. There is a red light still flashing on and off on the inverter board. Could the inverter board be at fault or could there be shorts on the main board? Thanks again to Tom66 for all the help!

Re: Vizio VX552XVT Screen Flashing on and off
Those voltages don't read when the screen goes black, though they do fluctuate by as much as 10 volts when it flickers. So you are saying my power supply may be bad? I also noticed when the screen flickers on and off the dark areas sometimes light up briefly. Would this be because of the power supply too? It starting to shut off now after it flickers too much. I also notice if I turn the backlight up it is more likely to flicker on and off and if i turn it down it will slow down or stop....Last edited by agent11927; 10-05-2013, 11:09 AM.

Re: Vizio VX552XVT Screen Flashing on and off
Ok i have a new problem now. The TV will be powered on with the vizio logo glowing white, but there will be no sound and no picture and no backlight on. This usually happens after it flashes on and off. I am to the point now where i want to replace the main board, and power supply. But i don't want to waste money if i can isolate what board is going bad. Please Help ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Vizio VX552XVT Screen Flashing on and off
Ok I will try that. I thought the TV was supposed to update the firmware automatically. I also noticed it gets worse the more the backlight is turned up. Also could you tell me why the picture looks like it does in this picture? I got the TV for cheap off of craigslist hoping to be able to fix in myself. The Backlight in the back panel of the TV seems to be shining through all the holes so i dont think it is a backlight issue....

Re: Vizio VX552XVT Screen Flashing on and off
Thanks Tom66 you are the man! While the screen is on and not flickering the voltage is at A= 1.735v and B= 3.26v. When it is flashing A= 3.34v and I haven't been able to get a reading for flashing B yet because it stopped flashing before i could get a reading. It has not failed on me yet tonight either so I cant get those readings yet. As soon as it does i will get the rest of the readings. Is this helpful at all yet?...

Re: Vizio VF552XVT Screen Flashing on and off
Sorry i took so long but here we go. Here are some pics if you can direct me as what to test. When it is flashing the power board voltages vary going out but seem to be steady on the main board. What part exactly needs to be tested as i dont know where the BL on/off circuit is. Thanks again. And the power boerd in the link posted earlier is the same as mine....
