My TV had a common issue where the TV will not display the picture. Symptoms: Flashing Vizio logo (amber & white flashing for :30 seconds, then logo is solid white for a few moments... then back to solid amber color and the cycle repeats itself over and over). After reading online comments of similar issues, and calling Vizio technical support, all things pointed to the Power Board needing replacement. Ordered and replaced the Power Board (via ShopJimmy). After installation, issue is unchanged. Opened the TV back up, verified correction connections, unplugged/replugged all connections to Power Board. Tried the normal troubleshooting steps of disconnecting A/C power for 30 sec, 30 min., and several hours--along with other suggested fixes pushing the power/menu wheel (located on the lower left of the TV). Not sure if the Power Board replacement was defective?? Or does this now point to Mother Board or ?? Please help! Thanks.
Fault at its main digital board. Short circuited component/s at it. Contact any service technician; or the authorized service center. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.

Check for bad capacitors in power supply, check voltages coming out of the power supply, if voltages are good, bad main board.. Vizio's are notorious for bad main boards.

If the Vizio logo(power indicator) isn't coming on when the set is plugged in, most likely you have a issue with the power supply. Your standby power supply isn't working, and without it, you will have a dead set.

I would suspect the main board as well
Im having similar problem and with my limited knowledge of lcd tvs and the voltages ALL being good except the pwr on or sw on voltage from the main board to the power supply which tells it to switch everything on Im guessing that something is going wrong on the main board. In the condition where it freezes it (the power on V) which switches everything on i get varied voltages such as 2.5 or 3 or (the normal 5v) and then when nothing powers up (blank screen) i read 0v on pwr on voltage but all my other voltages are corect (24v to inverter, 12 v to main board, 5v, etc.) Im guessing from researching this is that there is in improper voltage somewhere in the main board circuit. I have been unable to find it so i may order another board and post back.
