This is not a power supply problem if it passes the flashlight test, you most likely have a backlight burned out, be careful trying to repair this yourself, you can spend hundreds and still have a no functional TV, buy new they are really cheap now.

This is usually not the power board. the LED strips fail and you have 55 LED bulbs in the back light. It is not an easy fix because the display is glued to the bezel and if you don't take extreme care when working on it, you crack the LCD display.

My vizio tv has sound but no picture and already did the flashlight test

If your Vizio TV has sound but no picture, and you have already done the flashlight test, it may indicate that your TV's backlight or power supply is malfunctioning. Here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the cables: Make sure that all cables are properly connected between the TV and any devices you are using, such as a cable box or DVD player.
  2. Check the input source: Ensure that the TV is set to the correct input source that the device is connected to. You can cycle through the input sources using the input button on your TV remote.
  3. Power cycle the TV: Turn off your TV and unplug it from the power outlet for at least 1 minute, then plug it back in and turn it on again. This can sometimes resolve issues related to the TV's power supply.
  4. Reset the TV: Try resetting the TV to its default settings. You can find this option in the TV's menu settings.
  5. Contact support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it may indicate a hardware problem with the TV's backlight or power supply. In this case, you should contact Vizio support or a qualified technician for further assistance.

50 inch element tv no backlight. checked led strips, they seem to be working fine....whats next?

The next step would be to check the inverter board. This board is responsible for supplying the power to the backlight. If the inverter board is defective, it will need to be replaced. If the inverter board is not the issue, then the issue may be with the mainboard.

Samsung TV (model UN40H6203AF) 40" LED. No picture, have sound. Flashlight test can see faint menu screen. Have replaced power supply & main boards to this point. Ideas as to what to do next?

Hi Terry,

If you can see the faint picture in flash light means the power supply and the main board is working. The real culprit is the backlight. Even one bad LED in the backlight will switch off the whole array. To repair this fault the panel has to be opened and the defective LED or LEDs are to be replaced.

This is a complicated, delicate and risky job and must be attempted by an expert only. You may end up damaging the screen permanently if you have not done it before and try to DIY.

My Element 46" tv ELEFT466 has sound, but no picture. The flashlight test shows a picture. I'm told this model doesn't have an LED Driver. Is it part of the Main Board? What should I replace? Thanks!

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. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ 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.

How do I fix my Samsung 40 LED TV that has sound but no picture?

Here is what to check when your TV is turned on, power light is ON, but no picture is seen or sound is heard:

1 - Be sure the component you are using (Xbox, Cable, SAT, ROKU) is turned ON.
2 - Check to be sure all cable and cords are securely connected to the TV inputs and component outputs.
3 - Make sure you are on the correct input as some TV's will show a black screen if there is nothing connected to that input.
4 - Unplug the input you are trying to use from the TV (such as an HDMI Cable) and plug it back in.
5 - Check for signs of damage on all cords and cables from the TV to all components.
6 - Make sure the TV is not in ENERGY SAVE MODE, press the button on the remote control to go back to normal mode.
7 - Unplug the TV for 10 minutes to see if there was a temporary one time issue with the TV.
8 - Disconnect the TV from power for 2 minutes, then when plugging it back in PRESS AND HOLD THE POWER BUTTON ON THE TV FOR 10 to 20 SECONDS to try and force the TV to reset.
9 - If after checking all these different issues, you may have a Faulty Power Supply Board, A Bad Capacitor on the Power Supply Board, Loose Wire Harness, or Loose Ribbon Connector in the TV itself.
10 - Most likely when a TV has the power light ON but NO PICTURE and NO SOUND, it is the Power Supply Board that has failed.

BTW, here are solutions for you to play iTunes movies on Samsung smart TV

I have a Vizio model E421VO LCD TV. The picture has quit working. I have soung and the Vizio light comes on but no picture. Any thoughts on fixes or cost to repair.

I would first try the good ole flashlight test. Turn off the lights in the room, turn on the TV and shine a bright flashlight on the screen. Do you see a faint picture?? I'm willing to bet you will, this is most likely a backlight failure. I'm willing to bet either the inverter or the 24Vdc power supply circuit has a fault. Do you have any electronics repair skills??

This issue is a common, but hardly talked about from LG. Your tv is probably 1 or 2 months out of warranty, and now you're hearing a series of clicks. After weeks of fighting with LG to replace my tv, i decided to fix it myself. i'm proud to announce that my 50PK540 is now working. want proof? Take a look at the video i posted on youtube, then you will have a better understand why your tv is clicking... I'm also selling the repair kit for this power supply board on ebay now. LG power supply Board model number EAY60968801. With anyone of these PCB # EAX61392501/7, EAX61392501/10, EAX61392501/11, or EAX61392501/12 with the parts if this kit, I've also fis several 50PK750 models, Some clients have send me their broken power supply board, so I can do the repairs. Please Make sure that you've already gone through the process of troubleshooting and testing your tv's power supply board before making any purchases.. I recommend that you get a tv tech to check it out, because every tv is different. Email at [email protected] if you have any question.and watch the video:
