The set is finished- sets like this use a display panel- it is the entire front screen unit and a sealed unit at that.

Cost of the entire panel unit even if available will cost more than the set did when new ( not counting labor to remove and replace it).

Buy a new set and note all LCD and Plasma like sets have this issue as the display panel is very fragile.

SOURCE: My Vizio picture went out and tv made a loud

Most likely the TV has a power supply related problem. It's very possible that it maybe a bad capacitor or transformer on the power supply board that made the loud noise. But, I can't say it's 100% the problem because I can'tactually look at the tv over the internet. I can only make guesses with the symptom.

You have a few choices:

1. If by chance the TV is still under warranty, go that route.

2. If you have some electronic experience, if you can find and purchase a Service Manual over the internet; It will help you diagnose the source of the problem and fix it by soldering in the new part. The Service Manual will give you red light flashing codes, circuit diagrams, test points, and part# lists.Usually, cost under $20. And most cases the new part cost less than $15.

3. Pay a TV shop to do the repairs. It maybe costly, but get an estimate of how much they will charge. That way you can decide if it worth repairing or replacing the whole TV.


I hope I shed some light on the subject for you.

Normally new screens run about 100.00 less than a new tv costs and then you have to get it installed! There is now easy way around it. You would be better off just to get a new one>

It might have got a smallpoer surge and if you unpulg the set fromthe wall that should rest everthing back to normal, also check the inpu voltage going to PIP module.

Color problems vizio lcd hdtv

If your tv has a custom settings area, first turn all color down on set so picture looks black and white. Now in color settings look for red blue and green color bars. Use the bars until the picture looks as true to black and white as possible. Also, try changing color temp.

I have a vertical line that runs through the picture on a Vizio VW37L HDTV30A. Can it be fixed?

Possibly, could be a faulty LCD/T-con ribbon cable connection or a faulty LCD panel tab connection. Unless you are experienced in electronics repair, I would recommend you get a qualified service professional to look it over. But again there is a chance it can be repaired

Can i replace the screen on my vizio vw37l

yes you can, but in most cases cost to replace the panel could cost as much as a new set. If you decide to replace the panel, you will need to get your LCD panel model # before ordering a replacement. You will have to open your set. There should be a white sticker on the back of your panel stating the model #.

I Lost picture. Went to press mute button on remote and pressed last button instead. Now i can't get picture back.

If you hit the "last" button again, it should take you back to the channel you were on before you hit the button. when you lost the picture, was the screen blue? black? If you hit the "menu" button, does the menu come up?
