Amber light issue vw32l lcd Vizio

Having a similar issue. Tv is getting power but will not power on. The vizio light will remain yellow even after using remote, power button etc. Local repair shop states that the main pcb board is out, but no specific details. Have seen a fix for other models that use a diode or resistor but mine does not have that part to modify.

Its easier to open up your tv, look at the mainboard id number. Then do a search on google or ebay for the parts. Its alot easier then trying to troubleshoot the actual circuit board, unless your an electronic engineer.

Vizio VW32l HDTV w/no power

Hello bhudson153, Yes most certainly tv's should last longer than a year. What i would suggest is testing your outlet too see if it is putting out and test the tv in another room to see if thats that problem. If you still are having difficulties please post again.
Please post what you do and how you did it I look forward to your posts

Vizio L37 37 in. HDTV LCD TV

I had a similar problem with my Vizio Model VX37L HDTV and replaced the main board myself for $160.00 which I purchased new on Ebay at ShopJimmy.com. The symptoms all of sudden started by the screen going blank except for a rectangular banner across the top that resembled a UPC code only garbled. No sound. I actually had to pull the power cord to turn off the TV. I was able to turn on the set normally but the TV menus did not come up. Since the TV was 19 months old and no extended warranty I checked with Vizio support and Sam's Club but no extended warranty=no luck. I did have an estimate for repair for $900 from a company Vizio recommended but a new one goes for less now. About 42 screws and a half a dozen pin connectors I replaced the main board. The set is working again better than ever. I don't know if I call my self fortunate or not since I did have a problem after only 19 months.
