I have a Vizio D55-D2 TV that's just 18 months young and over holidays it started getting a double image and some vertical lines distorting picture.

I did some research on YouTube troubleshooting and it seem like the T-con board would probably fix it. While I was replacing the T-con board I disconnected and reconnected the ribbon cables to that board and seemed to have made the problem worse. Now I have a new board installed and I can hear the audio but the whole picture is distorted. I am trying to determine if it is the LED buffer panel which I am told it is not cost-effective to replace. If anyone knows how to be sure that it is the LED panel please let me know. Thank you! Stuart

With my experience on vizio tv's I don't think I would go any further.. Any repair isn't cost effective because either you disturb their poor connections and have to chase down bad solder joints or cheap ribbon cable sockets.

SOURCE: Traditional toshiba TV picture problems

it is due to poor focusing please check 1 set with focus control fitted on flyback transformer, 2 check focus control wire comes to crt base is loose or some foreign material deposited on it. 3 crt base loose contact. 4 if tv is old then there is a possibility of crt is getting weak. if you are not a technical person do not open set as tv has very high voltage inside. hope this will help.

Hi,

I hope not but:
this is probably a failure from the screen or the electronic parts that control the videosignals.
i think having a specialist or the tecnical service from vizio taking a look at it will be best and safest.


Hope this is helpful, and greetings,

Olivier.

It sounds that the T'Con board has failed. If you are not familiar with electronics, do not attempt to repair. Whether you suffer fatal electric shock. Instead, contact any experienced service technician, or the nearest service center.

Thin red line across screen two inches for the top. Picture above line is good, picture below line has no color and double image.

Hello,

IF YOU HAVE A SOLID BLACK LINE RUNNING VERTICALLY THEN YOU HAVE A FAULTY MATRIX INVERTER. IF CENTRAL THE MAIN VERTICAL INVERTER NEEDS CHANGED. LEFT = LEFT VERTICAL INVERTER RIGHT=RIGHT.........

ANOTHER WAY TO GET THIS FAULT IS WORN OR DAMAGED RIBBON/PLASTIC GOING FROM THE SCREEN MATRIX TO THE INVERTER

Hope this will help out.....
