The main power supply regulator section circuit fault. Either it will be a separate board, or the part of main board. Check and replace damaged component/s at its main power regulator [SMPS] section circuit. Contact any service technician. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts.

It will be best to replace the power supply regulator board as card basis rather than making "Surgery" to it; which usually will make loss for both money and time. Even though you can make it right, it will cost around an amount equal to the cost of a new board; including the cost of (spare parts + service charge) More to say, most of the spare parts to it will be difficult to get from open electronic spare part market. This is true to most of the flat panel TV power supply boards; irrespective of its brand and screen size.

Vizio TV model XVT553SV will not turn on, replaced power cord with new one from Vizio ?

Hi Jeannette, it would be VERY rare for a power cord to cause a set not to work. Is the set totally dead or do you get the standby lamp when you plug the set in?

How to fix Vizio tv that doesn't turn on

If you have already replaced the power supply board and your Vizio TV still does not turn on, there may be other issues with the TV. Here are a few steps you can try:
  1. Check the power outlet: Make sure the power outlet you are using to connect your TV is functioning correctly by plugging in another device.
  2. Check the power cord: Inspect the power cord of your TV for any damage or loose connections. If the cord is damaged, replace it.
  3. Check for blown fuses: Locate the fuse box in your home and check if any of the fuses are blown. If a fuse is blown, replace it with a new one.
  4. Try a different remote: If you are using a remote to turn on the TV, try a different remote to see if the issue is with the remote.
  5. Contact the manufacturer: If none of the above steps work, it is best to contact the manufacturer or a professional TV repair service for further assistance.

Vizio P55-e1 TV won't turn on - when I connect the power cord in the socket, the power indicator on the left bottom side lights up for just one second and than turns off.

A loose connection may cause your TV to turn off suddenly or an aging power supply cord. If you see any frayed wires or damage to your TV's power cord. The power cord will have to be replaced.

I just changed out the power board on a vizio tv. have no power still any ideas

How To Fix Power Problems in 5 Easy Steps

1. Verify The Display Is Not Showing An Image

If your TV shows a black screen that doesn't mean it's not on. This could be a panel or a source issue rather than a problem with the power.
Press the MENU button on your remote or on the side of the TV. If the TV's menu appears on the screen after pressing that button then the TV is on and does not have a power issue. The black screen is more likely the result of a source issue such as a problem with cable or satellite TV service.

2. Use The Power Button On The TV Instead Of The Remote

A problem with the remote might make you think there is a problem with the TV. It could be that the TV is working fine but the remote is faulty. Use the power button on the side of the TV determine if the problem is caused by the remote.
Users sometimes think there are no buttons on Vizio TVs. Nearly every Vizio TV manufactured in 2014 or later has a power button on the back of the TV so it's easy to miss.
Reach around the lower left corner of the TV. The power button is on the back of the TV and this might be just what you need to get your TV working.
TVs made before 2014 will have an on/off button on the left or right side.
If this button works then the problem is coming from the remote. You might just need new batteries or there may be something blocking the IR sensor on the TV.

3. Power Cycle The TV

Power cycling can solve a lot of odd problems with Vizio TVs.
First disconnect the TV's power cord from the power outlet and leave it unplugged. Then press and hold the power button on the TV for 10 seconds.
After you have held the button for 10 seconds, let go then try to power the TV on.

4. Re-seat The Power Cord

A loose power cord might be causing the problem. The power cord can be detached from most Vizio TVs. It can easily get disconnected by house pets or if the TV is moved while cleaning.
Unplug the power cord from the back of the TV, reconnect it again, then test the TV.

5. Test The TV When Connected To A New Outlet

Verify the TV is using a functioning wall outlet.
You always want to attempt to power the TV on using a second outlet. Test a new outlet even if other devices work in the first outlet.
Connect the TV's power cord to a new outlet that you have not used used yet then test the TV again. Don't use a surge protector when using a new power outlet because these devices can sometimes be the source of the problem.
If the TV works now then it was the original outlet that was causing the problem all along.

I have a vizio vx37l was working just fine, went to turn it on and will not come on now. The vizio is orange touch the power button it turns white then back to orange .

That sounds like one of the shutdown circuits of the tv is activating. Most likely would need a tech to repair for you. You could try to power cycle the tv to see if that helps, just unplug the power cord of the tv, wait a few seconds then plug it back in and try to turn the tv on. Would be similar to rebooting a computer.

Vizio TV wont turn on after three weeks no use

My vizio recently did the same exact thing. Vizio sent an HDTV tech out to fix it and it was the power board. He put a new board in (took 15 min) and the tv works like new.
