The TV slowly began to degrade. At first the TV would turn on and you had a picture and sound then it would turn off. After a while it would turn back on. This slowly got worse to a point that you heard some crackling noise and then no sound. TV will now only illuminate logo but will not show a picture. Your help is greatly appreciated.
I will try a new main board first.

This is the second time I have seen this problem this week. Seems like a common issue on Vizio LCDs. Anyways the problem you mentioned indicates that the tv-micro IC has failed. THis is located on the main audo/video board and a component level repair is not possible in this case. The main A/V board has to be replaced and it should cost you around 100-125$. Would you like to do it yourself?

Thank you for your posts. I would like to repair this myself. Based on your responses the main board will need replaced. In your opinions do you think the power supply board is OK? Can you give me a few places to purchase teh new main board? Thank you
Another comment i would like to add is that my TV is also about two years old. Vizio Customer no support stated that i can only expect 4 to 5 years of life from this TV.
