I have a Vizio E550i-B2 LED tv that will not power on nor does it have a stand-by light. I have changed the power supply and main board, but still have a dead set. Any ideas would be welcomed!

SOURCE: I have a Vizio E550i-b2 55 LED TV. I have no LED backlight. When I hold a flashlight to the screen I can see the images and I have sound. I was going to replace the LED driver? Thoughts??

Hi Jimmy,
If I may suggest, before changing, please check that the inverter board is producing the necessary voltage to drive the backlights or not. If the board is producing the necessary power and still the backlight is not coming on, there is possibility that some of the LEDs in the backlight array have failed.

Testimonial: "No matter which HDMI input I use the screen is totally black again. The apple tv works fine on a different Vizio TV with a different HDMI cable."

SOURCE: 55 Vizio LED e550i-b2. Confirmed no back lights. Unplug for few hours, replug and works again for a few days. Is best bet led invertor going out? Visually the boards and connections look ok.

Back - light problem. Check and replace damaged component/s at its back-light inverter board, or replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. It will be best to replace the inverter board as card basis.

To some model sets; especially LED back-lighted types; the back-light inverter circuit will be part of the main power supply board [SMPS]. In such cases, the power supply board might need replacement. To some models sets, the back-light inverter and SMPS section circuit will be integrated at its main board itself. If so; the main board should be replaced. To some models of sets, all these section circuit will be integrated at its main board. If this is the case, you have to replace the main board.

Vizio e550i-b2 TV. Audio has started intermittently losing sound

First thing is test power supply voltages as the power board on this model has had some issues. You need to test the 12 Volt supply for correct voltage and ripple as cap failure is somewhat common. Don't worry about the 5 volt supply. If the voltage looks good you have a bad main board and that board will be hard to find and expensive, over $100 in most cases. As strange as it sounds a bad inferred sensor board will also make no sound but I can't say I've head of that issue being intermittent.

I'm trouble shooting my Vizio e550i-2b It has power no backlights, image can be seen with a flashlight, I've replaced led driver board and problem persists, do you suggest main board next?

If you can see an image with a flashlight and you can control the tv with the remote then the main board is not the problem. You've replaced the LED driver board, so that leaves the LED strips inside the LCD panel as the likely problem.
