If my LED tv is dark, does that really mean that ALL led strips went bad at the same time? Or is it likely something else?

Vizio E601i-A3. I replaced the TCon board. I can see the 'V' when it powers up if I shine a flashlight on the screen. But if ALL Led's go out, wouldn't that be something further up the chain?

Hi Markus Alison, with only one LED that burns, it is enough so that the back lighting does not turn on
To make a correct repair, I advise you to replace all the LED strips, to prevent the failure from repeating in a short time

Hola Markus Alison, con solo un LED que se queme, es suficiente para que la iluminacion trasera no encienda
para hacer una correcta reparacion, te aconsejo reemplazar la totalidad de las tiras de LEDs, para evitar que la falla se repita en poco tiempo

SOURCE: When testin a power supply or led board on tv do i test dc or ac with multimeter?

Your power supply board is working if you get audio and imgaes.

You test AC only the AC side of the transformer before the Rectifier Diodes. Everything after the Diodes will be in DC.

The main power supply regulator section circuit fault. Either it will be a separate board, or the part of main board. Check and replace damaged component/s at its main power regulator [SMPS] section circuit. Contact any service technician. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here.

SOURCE: My Hisense 50H5G LED TV has sound but no picture. I did the flashlight test and saw an image. Does this mean the Tcon board is bad?

No it means you have no picture, you must do the testing to decide if the PCB is defective or not.

SOURCE: Hitachi le49a509 led tv black screen. I can see the menu screen with a flashlight test. There's 3 boards in the back. Tcon, power supply and main board. Which is the problem?

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. 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.

The backlight on my Vizio E601i-A3 is not coming on. How can I tell whether it is the power board or the LEDs themselves?

Vizio had a recall on this model TV resulting from the issue your having, below is a link to the recall. What they said was recently Vizio put up a special bulletin on its website stating a number of its 60-inch E601i-A3 and 70-inch E701i-A3 HDTVs may lose the picture (but maintain audio) due to a bad "chip assembly". The "chip assembly" is actually in the main board, Ive fixed a number of this model TV's by replacing the main however Ive also seen the lamps fail as well so its kind of a guessing game as far as where the issue is at unless you have some high end test gear to troubleshoot the set.

Connect Dell Inspiron 6400 to VIZIO E601i-A3 60-inch 1080p LED HDTV using VGA Connector

When you connect the vizio try changing the resolution settings on your laptop to see if that makes a difference. Could be that your video card output is not really compatible with the higher requirements of the Vizio.
