Fix VIZIO TV (Black Screen of Death) Not Turning On LED Smart Class Series 32 43 50 65 55 40 70 58

If you are experiencing a black screen issue on your Vizio TV, you can try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve the problem:
Check the power connection: Ensure that the TV is securely connected to a power source and that the power cable is properly plugged in. If you are using a power strip or surge protector, make sure it is functioning correctly.
Test different inputs: Connect a different device (such as a DVD player or gaming console) to the TV using different input ports (HDMI, component, etc.) to verify if the issue is specific to a particular input or device. This will help determine if the problem lies with the TV or the input source.
Adjust the brightness and contrast settings: Use the TV's remote control to access the picture settings menu. Adjust the brightness and contrast levels to ensure they are not set too low, as this could result in a black screen. Try increasing these settings gradually until the picture becomes visible.
Check the remote control: Ensure that the remote control batteries are not depleted and are properly inserted. Point the remote control directly at the TV and press the power button to confirm it is working correctly.
Perform a power cycle: Unplug the TV from the power source, then wait for at least 2-3 minutes. While the TV is unplugged, press and hold the power button on the TV itself for about 15-20 seconds to discharge any residual power. Afterward, plug the TV back in and try turning it on.
Update firmware: Visit the Vizio website and check if there are any available firmware updates for your specific TV model. Follow the instructions provided by Vizio to update the TV's firmware if necessary. Firmware updates can sometimes resolve software-related issues.
Factory reset: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you can try performing a factory reset on your Vizio TV. Note that this will reset all settings and preferences to their default values. The method to perform a factory reset may vary depending on your TV model, so refer to the user manual or visit the Vizio support website for specific instructions.
Contact Vizio support: If the problem persists after trying the above steps, it's advisable to reach out to Vizio's customer support for further assistance. They can provide specific troubleshooting steps for your TV model or guide you through the repair process if necessary.
Remember to exercise caution and follow the manufacturer's instructions when attempting any troubleshooting steps.

If you can't get your tv up and running, try a new 50" Amazon Fire TV from Amazon here amzn.to/3HguZCU I've been very impressed with the picture and quality of the Fire TV.

I have a Vizio 43 inch and I am experiencing no picture. However the V logo is faint but I can't see any settings or input options.

I have never had a power cord, so what am I supposed to do?

My tv screen went off while i was playing on my PlayStation. However the sound still works (i heard the indication that the PlayStation was turned off incorrectly but nothing on the screen and the hdmi ports do not work to turn it back on. I tried my old PlayStation and the screen doesnt work for it so i doubt its the PlayStation. The power turns on and says "no signal" but when i connect my device it turns black. Should i order a new screen?

My power buttons shows that it’s on but the screen is black and there’s no sound

And when I unplugged it and plugged it back in the power light goes right back on but no screen

Are you just making this stuff up? Changing the chemistry of the tv with warm heat? Seriously? Should I try putting crystals on it? How about rubbing some Aloe Vera on the screen? Are there toxins in the chemistry I need to remove?

[@HelpingHermit]

i think the issue really resides in your brain and the way you think. Toxic people will seek toxic situations and thoughts. Thanks for watching
