hey what's going on guys in this video
I'm gonna be telling you the fix for
your vizio tv in my case it is the back
lights and I'll show you exactly what to
look for and how to look for it before
you start taking apart the television
buying all sorts of boards spinning a
bunch of money and then it not working
with prices of televisions coming down
you want to eliminate the fuss if
possible so first thing you do is when
you do turn it on I would try to grab
your remote control if not go ahead and
use the manual buttons it's just easier
the guide setting etc we're gonna get to
that in just a second so first thing I'm
gonna do is I'm gonna turn it on you're
gonna see this down here
light goes on right there and then it
fades off okay that's normal for a bisio
television also come back here and you
can see it right there the little laser
for the digital audio so you know it's
getting power okay so this is where you
need a flashlight or your cellphone's
light here my flash is already on so
we're gonna get up nice and close to it
here and this is how we can tell it's
the back lights no channels in master so
as you can see it's completely dark let
me go ahead and turn off the flash real
quick so you can see my reflection right
here as I'm bending down trying to get
the shot but there's nothing nothing on
the screen and now let's turn the flash
back on so once my cellphones camera has
the flash back on we can see there's
something on the television so I've
worked on so many televisions guys the
problem is bad LED backlights let me go
to input so we take our remote control
we hit input and as you can see here now
we see comp HDMI four HDMI three I think
it went away hold on HDMI two and what
is that HDMI one and TV right there so
and then it goes back to this here
because obviously there's nothing
plugged into it so I'm gonna go ahead
and show you all so let's go ahead and
turn it off and now I'm gonna turn it
back on and we should see the Vizio
there it is right there with the flash
on you saw the Vizio pop-up right there
okay if you
do see this with a flashlight on that
means the LED lights are not functioning
correctly there's probably only one or
two blown you can take it apart you can
resaw der you can buy new LED strips on
eBay and put them all back in it's not
too difficult it's time-consuming and
there's other videos on YouTube
explaining that you simply just take off
the back you got to remove the panel
again time consuming and you do have to
be careful you do not break the display
crack it while you're working on it or
the option in my case is I'm going to
sell the stand on eBay I'm gonna sell
all the boards on eBay because I know
it's working - the LED lights so all the
board's power supply t-con and main
board and the stand I will sell on eBay
as pre-owned parts so that is another
option you can recoup your money my
guestimation is we're probably looking
at upwards of well over a hundred
hundred and twenty hundred and fifty
dollars including the stand of parts you
can apply that towards another
television I could even be wrong it
could actually be more in use parts or
take it apart by the pre-owned LED
lights on eBay as well and replace it so
I'll leave that up to you guys I'm gonna
go ahead and just resell the parts
obviously that's what I do is a side
hustle there is another one I'm gonna be
selling the parts out of old Panasonic
Plasma so guys thank you for watching
