Hi, if any one can I need some help. my viz lost its picture, but retains the sound. I have checked some blogs and read that its probably the backlight inverter. After research I cannot find a component that matches any board in the television. do plasmas not have one? and any suggestions for trouble shooting. limited knowledge in this area. Any help would be awesome! Thanks!  |

Plasmas do not have backlight so there should be no inverter. Check out the connections to see if anything is loose. How long have you had this TV? |

| all connections appear to be wound. I unplugged each buffer board one at a time and no change. The led vizio light turns on, can hear the relays click on the power board, don't smell any magic smoke, nothing appears to be overheating. any other ideas? logic board perhaps? oh, there is a blinking green light when I turn the television on, on the logic board. Is it supposed to blink or stay solid green? Thank you so much! Toby |
