Vizio TV Turns On, But No Picture FIX (UPDATED) 

Am impressed am watching you from Ghana west africa

THANKS! I used a heatgun on the actual heat sink with foil protecting the rest of the board and now the TV is back to working again.

Love your videos M70-C3 which chip should I Reflow ? Thanks in advance

Thank you so much . I tried and it worked.

I'm absolutely amazed, i baked the board for 10 minutes at 400 degrees and it actually worked. I thought it was going to melt or destroy it but it didn't. Amazing

I have an M65-C1 that has sound but no picture and no backlight. is it likely the same problem as with this TV? if it is the main board, are replacement boards available? is there a way to reflow the chip without a reflow station?

I'll be sending my board to you! D50u-D1. Thanks!

The speakers on my M43-C1 keep popping intermittently. Should I replace the speakers? Or the main board?

hi I'd like to send in my M65-C1 board, this looks exactly like my problem. The google docs wouldnt open for me

So we have an M60-D1 and it turns on but will not display anything but the menus. I can select which input and change settings. It however only displays colored lines for HDMI inputs and flashing gray screens on the smart cast. I'm having a hard time figuring out if it's the main board or Tcon.

My vizio logo shows up when I turn it on, but then it goes to a black it’s not faded just straight black screen I already replace the power supply board do you think it could be the main board?

My Vizio M65-C1 has a similar problem. For a few months now 1/2 of the screen would glitch out and freeze the tv. It would eventually start working again. The other day it did the same thing, but this time the screen died. It still has audio though. It also does the power light fade things. I think it is also power cycling. Any idea what this might be?

Watching your vi have a Vizio model E601i- A3E and its giving no power no picture. Should I try to order a motherboard replacement to see if it will work again?

You are amazing 👏🏻 ❤️ thank you so much i reflowed the chip and it fixed the TV!!!!!

I reflowed the chip but with flashlight, I can see the screen turns green red blue every time I turn it on while there is still no backlight. Is it toast? Vizio model D40f-F1

Do you have video on how you remove the heat sink? I am afraid to damage those pin like screws, not sure if they are screw or soldered pins?

Attempted to fill out your form but I got a permission issue. Please let me know how I can reach out regarding a quote for re-ball or reflow of the board - I have a slightly different model but the board looks almost identical (P502ui-B1E)

Do you recall having functIional sounds as if the unit was working, but no video? I have the same issue on another Vizio

My PX75G1 powers on but only the power button works. It works on the remote, TV, and the Vizio App. Problem is no other buttons work. I am unable to do a factory reset because the other physical buttons do not work and it won’t work initiating from the app. I am however able to adjust picture settings from the app. Quick google and this seems to be a common problem but I can’t find and guidance on what needs to be repaired. I was thinking possibly new main board or possibility reflow like you do in the video. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance

I have a M50-C1 motherboard that needs your reflow service. I would like you to repair it. What's the cost and how do I get the board to you? Do you have a website?

I have a vizio model e701i-a3 with this problem I was wondering what this service would cost if I sent the board out to you guys?

M65-C1. Tv comes on but has colored lines on the screen in a square box. Various color screens and no sound. The tv continuously resets itself and after many attempts it will start working! It used to take a couple minutes but now it’s taking 20 minutes or so. Sometimes I get sound while it’s going through this issue. Any idea what the issue could be? Tia!

I have an LG 55UM6910PUC it just shows blue/green screen. When it first happened there was audio and you could switch channels but no picture. Now there is no audio so I can't tell if the channels are changing with the Remote.

Reflow station is pretty sweet. Here I am guessing with my heat gun. Worked though. 😂

Hi, I saw your video and I have the same problem with my TV but I don’t have tools to reflow the chip etc. Can you fix the main board. Let me know. Thanks

I have a question I got a another Vizio Would there be work of If I took that board Add it to go and put it in the other TV that's messed up what it works

Hi, i have a Vizio M49-C1 and the power light comes on and then fades out. No video or audio. As in your video I watch it may need a repair to the main board. Can you repair the board or would I be better to replace it? Thanks for any help. Ron

Hi I have a 58-inch Hisense tv screen all black, replaced the main board with a new one, still, the same power red light comes on when powered up and fades out, what could be the problem Thanks

I have a Vizio v585-j01 when powered on screen is black and eventually goes to white after some time passes, also no sound it’s barely over a year old… any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

My tv is doing same thing and how much will it cost to fix cause I don't want to do it myself

Pretty sure this may be issue with my sons 43" Vizio. Only difference is with his if I unplug it and hard drain the caps when i turn it back on the screen will work for a few seconds and look perfect. But once a few seconds go by and it heats up the screen goes dark. Its not completely black but you can barely see anything at all. Would this be the same issue? If so what do you charge for this repair? I may be interested in sending the board in for repair.

I have a D50-F1 that is experiencing the exact symptoms. How do I contact u and get pricing?

Working on a M43-C1 came to conclusion after some checks that the same chip is not working, how much do you charge to rest it?

If you have a Vizio tv with no image upon turn on, but you lightly press on the screen, you see backlights, or pull up on the edge trim, & see backlights, could it be one of the main boards? I have not tried using a flashlight to see if a "Ghost image" appears. Got a hold of a Vizio 50" "V" series (not sure of the pixel ratings) thank you 🤓

My vizio is doing the exact same thing as this tv is doing, how much is this repair i dont have the tools to do this, do u take boards maiked to you and u repair them?

where would i find a replacement backlight for my moms Vizio model D32xD1. im sure its the backlight cause i can shine a flashlight through the otherwise black screen and see the vizio menu when i press input button. my other question is how much will this cost me and how difficult is it to replace?? any help or tips will be a blessing and very appreciated. god bless you

I have Vizio 40 inch smart tv model D40f-G9. powers on LED fades but doesnt turn off and no picture. Can I fix this myself without special tools?? How much do u charge if I can't do it myself??

Vizio E50x-E1 black screen. Can see people moving when using a flashlight too shine on tv has audio also what is my problem ?

I have a Samsung UN50TU8200F that keeps trying to start then back off and repeats. Every once in a long while it will come on but then goes right back to off and on. Any ideas?

Can you send the link for that specific motherboard please

What does the reflow station do to the chip?

Whats the temperature setting for reflow ?

I've got the same model, but the LED on the main board isn't lighting up. The standby light comes on then goes out. Power board or Main board? Thanks. Good video.

I git a m65 c1 ,no sound no displsy no backlight ,power light fades,but i did notice theres suppose to b a light on mainboard and mines not on ,but the optical redlights on

I have a m65-c1 and the main board does not have a light on when powered on what does this mean?

My vizio D50u-D1 has the black screen and I called them and they said to hard reset it and It did not work and I did the flashlight thing too, Idk what to do I'm trying to find a repair shop but I'm hoping someone on here has an answer

I have a vizio model number m65c1. You hit power and the light lights up but shows no image

How much to reflow my main board if I send it to you? Same tv..

How does a normal person reflow the chip? Is there a way to do this repair at home?

My Aiwa tv turns on but it’s brightness is so low, the remote buttons don’t work it just makes the LED power button turn red and back to green please help I can’t game anymore😢

Can i do the same with a reworstation , i don't have a machine like yours

After I replaced the main board it finally turned on but now I have lines covering the entire screen which never happened before. Any ideas?

What is your ebay store name? I found two in Tucson, reworksrus and Nicks Tv, I assume Nicks is you, so who is the other? Competition?

What do you charge to reflow a board?

My step daughter’s tv turns on like normal, clear picture and brightness. We go open Netflix and click to play the movie. There’s sounds but no picture. What do you think the problem is?

Question...... Why are you not using the Flux before reflowing /heating up the CPU? I was thinking :.... The Flux takes away some oxidation and it flows by itself nicely under the Cpu while heating /reflowing. Due the heating ... The Flux will find its way under the CPU. Whats the use of spraying Flux when my CPU does not get very hot anymore,... cause I also did mount a bigger heatsink with Fan on top, to keep the temperature as low as possible when switching my TV on..... 😉 👍 I did a reflow without using Flux and my TV is working well at the moment. Should I still spray some Flux before I close the back cover??? (is Flux also protecting the Cpu and preventing against oxidation, nomather if the TV is on or of??)) ✌️

The problem was just cold solder?

About how much would such a repair cost?

damm , i dropped my tv vizo with the same problem.

Wait so you bake the board?

Main thing is just clean them

I put new main board in and my tv is still black.

Isn't it just better/cheaper to just buy a new board and install it?

TOSS IT!! Vizio are CRAP!! My 70 inch had started dying right around the time of the Game of Thrones night battle, so it was god awful. It lasted, but with a splotchy lit screen, til this past Black Friday, when it went completely dark(Timing, right?). Well, when the freight guys showed up with my new Samsung QLED(It was a tossup between Samsung or another Sony Bravia, which I have in bedroom and is still amazing), I asked em if they wanted the old Vizio, which can be somewhat fixed(According to these videos) and the guys immediately asked me if it was a Vizio. I told him that it was and he laughed. He said he spent almost a year exchanging peoples' Vizios and they were legit garbage. It's not worth the time, energy and $$ to repair them, that's for sure. I cannot believe there hasn't been a recall or a class action lawsuit against them yet, tbh.

These companies still continue to have these chips soldered to the board directly. They always fail . Xbox ,ps4 u name it they all need resolder

Yes, my name is Larry Spencer, and I work criminal investigations into fraud and misuse for the USPS Postal Inspection Team, and we'd like to know a little bit more about your makeshift heat barrier, or cardboard tent that seems to be made entirely out of priority mail flat rate shipping boxes. Misuse of just one of those boxes carries up to a 5 year sentence. It looks like you've got several dozen of them under siege. This video evidence, coupled with your flagrant misuse of the word "action" (.I.E...it's time for some heat gun action), has really caught our attention. Just Kidding, I'm not Larry an investigator, but I did get you pretty good!!!!

Do you repair TVs for people?

If I ship my TV to you, do you think you can do that for me and I’ll pay you?

Piss on vizio 18 month old tv and the back lights go out. Vizio says oh well. Their product is just as crappy as they are. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!
