My tv just went out 3 days ago a Vizio p series 2017 and the light dims also will have to recheck if it shows an image hopefully I can open the back and see what I can do this is great video by the way

[@cubanorafter]

Great tutorial. My M43 Vizio TV just did a similar thing. Ordered a new main power board and keeping fingers crossed.

[@caseG80]

Did it work

[@lethalchaos19]

Did it work i have same issues on my M43 vizio... Please tell us thanks and where did you get the board? ebay?

[@Keyshadarling]

My Vizio TV M60-C3 was taking longer and longer and multiple tries to turn on. Then one day last week just wouldn’t turn on at all. I ordered a used power board on Ebay and installed it! It now turns on perfect. Some of the back lights r out but this will give me time to save for a new TV. Thanks to your video I was confident enough to do the repair. Thank you!

[@TECHIELIFE]

Great job. I'd recommend to turn down the led backlights on any tv. This will make it last longer

Then you have bad backlights. You need to change out the leds inside the tv. Look for my other video on how to do it.

My Vizio 70 in TV (E70 A3), when you power it on, it will flash the vizio logo on the screen, but will stay black, no pictures no sound. Check the power led light on the lower right corner, it will fade after few seconds from power on. Done the reseat by unplugging but is still the same. Please advise if the problem is the power supply board.

Hi! I have a vizio 78” and it’s got a dark shadow on the right hand... would I be able to replace the same board you talked about on this video?

I’ve got a Vizio 50” P502ui-B1. I can get full audio, but no screen. Tried the flashlight test but can’t see anything. When I turn the TV on, the LED whites power indicator at the bottom left will turn on, then fade away. At other times when I power on and try to access the menu, for example (which I can’t do) that LED power indicator will blink on and off for maybe 5-10 seconds and then stop. I’ve tried the soft reset - doesn’t work. Tried the hard reset but challenging to do with the remote without being able to see the screen. Thoughts?

Cool. Can you send me the link to buy the board??? Thanks.

[@crystalharrison3027]

Thank you for this video! We had our Vizio tv start off with the top half of the image darker than the bottom half. Looked on KZbin as decided that some of the LED lights went out. Got quoted $85-200 to replace the lights. Watched video of how to do it on my own and it was a bit much. We just continued to use it as is and adjusted the brightness until we decided on what to do. Now all the lights are out. The power light comes on and fades, and using the flashlight trick we can see there are images scrolling. Should explore the main board going out for an easy fix, or should I assume all the backlights went and go for that? Thank you!

[@TECHIELIFE]

I would assume that the backlights are out. Dont waste switching main boards.

[@uckluck]

Just fixed mine today flickering power light was caused by faulty ir board. (No audio, would load splash screen but then go on and off)

[@eyeleans]

Hi diego hope you can help. I have a 70 Vizio model number P701ui-B3 that cycles on and off repeatedly. It won’t stay on. It turns on and you see the Vizio logo on the tv and then the power light fades dimmer (but not completely off) and the screen goes black and then it turns on again with the power light bright and the logo appears again etc. That’s the cycle. Is this a power board issue?

[@dibaz1]

Is there a problem with the 70” Visio overheating? Does it need to be well ventilated?

[@GS-kj6ur]

I did this to my Vizio but it had the same problem a little bit later

[@robertoayala5142]

My Vizio has no backlight, no sound but I have stand by light in the back (little red light at the power board) The power light in front goes off after a few seconds I already try another Mainboard and a power board too and nothing happened, and according to the video, I only have 2 more options the T-con or the lights, Right? Which one do you think I should change first? Gracias amigo!

[@TECHIELIFE]

the backlights... im like 99 percent sure.. you may think you dont have sound, but it may just be in the wrong input... try this.. power it on and point a flashlight in the center.. you should see a small silhouette of the "V" logo. either way, its gonna be the leds. tcon will usually not show any picture but you will have backlights. Good luck!

[@sray560]

Thanks for your help I have a a issue with the led strips the last three are in reverse or backwards can you please help me figure that out picture is fine just three strips are in the wrong order and backwards

I also have a 2017 75” 4K vizio smart cast and it did the same turns on with sound but black screen but can also see the background with a flash light ...it’s very dim and pulses between barley visible and dark could it be the light strips or the power board ?

[@TECHIELIFE]

Im not sure. If I were you, try to replace the power board. It's the easiest thing to do. If not then the backlights is your problem.

[@jacobcardenas2700]

I have the Vizio D321-E1 but mine doesn't turn on the small light in the bottom but I can see a red light in the back, do you have some recommendations???

[@JaeBlaze07]

My E65-E1 went out yesterday, the light at the bottom doesn't come on at all when I try to power it up. Tried troubleshooting but no luck. Doesn't seem to be powering up at all. Do you think this is an issue with the main board or the power board? Also do you think it's okay to go with a preowned part or should I try to get my hands on a new one?

[@TECHIELIFE]

Maybe power board. Used is okay to me. But if newer isn't much more expensive, then new.

It’s amazing how many times people trash or give away TVs that just need a new power or t-con board.

[@weightinbullets]

Tell me about it. Check this out. My 2016 p65-c1 went about a month ago, but it was still covered under a squaretrade warranty. They sent a technician out to fix it and he changed the power supply board but it didn't work. So squaretrade decided that the TV was not repairable so they sent me a brand new replacement tv(65" Samsung NU7100). I wasn't satisfied with their decision, so I purchased a main board for my so-called unrepairable Vizio TV. Installed it and the Vizio now works great. Now I have 2 65" TVs. Definitely at least get that warranty for sure.

I watched four other videos and tried a bunch of quick fix tricks but nothing worked then I watched your video and I finally know at least what is wrong with my Vizio TV. I do have a quick couple of questions. Just as you described in the beginning of your video my picture went out but I still had sound, about 15 minutes later the sound went out also. That's when I first called the cable company and then went on KZbin. Any about 5 hours after all of this started the volume suddenly returned! It scared the hell out of me lol 😁. The picture hasn't come back only the volume. Does this mean anything? Lastly my Vizio is 3 years and 1 month old. I know this because I got the extended 3 year warranty and when I called to check on it I was informed that it had expired 25 days ago. Anyway in your opinion and I'm not going to hold you to this, is it worth fixing this TV ? I'm not handy enough to do it myself and I have no idea how long a TV like this should last. A laptop computer is obsolete after a couple of year's. Thank you for the great video! Finally I know what is wrong with my TV thanks to you!
