Vizio VF550M volume stuck at 100

Volume stuck at 100, will not lower, remote controls do not lower it, removing batteries no help. Cycling power on TV, no difference.

    Suspect it could be the controller board or the main board, but which?

  • Anonymous Mar 07, 2012

    It does appear that the manual volume control is related to the on screen display at 100. I can push that manual button, and then lower the volume with the remote. It will then stay but as soon as I take away my hand on the manual control, it shoots back up. Controller board it appears. But, I'm also seeing it come and go. This am. the problem didn't even show up. It may be related to heat as the TV is on. We shall see.

The 2 suspects are possible but there is a way to find it..try to get the control board and remove the vol+ button on it..then back the controller then power it on again try to push vol- on remote or TV..if no help you have faulty main board..

SOURCE: vizio remote control not working

Hi, I had the same problem. My vizio remote for my 42 inch 2 month old vizio also seemed to stop working. Here's what I did: My vizio remote (like most remote's nowadays) was designed for multiple components (tv, dvd, vcr, etc). All you need to do to make the remote work again is set it back to tv. Now, the confusing thing about vizio remotes is that they actually have TWO places where you can switch the remote to the appliance you want to control. One is on top of the remote, the other is on the BOTTOM. Switch it back to TV using the BOTTOM. My remote had stopped working because I had inadvently switched it to another component on the BOTTOM component switch.

SOURCE: Just bought E420VL 42" LCD

Go into menu, sound set-up, and switch SRS to off. It's a vizio thing they came up with to act like "Smart Sound" where commercials won't be louder. It is total BS and does not work, it makes your normal sound fluctuate. Worked on all 3 of my Vizios. Hope it helps you.

Do you have other devices connected to your t?
Such as a router, a decoder or an apple tv? If you have, restart them and change the batteries in the remote. You may think that is a silly suggestion, but changing batteries in remotes has helped me more than once. Oh and do not forget to check all cables and connections as well as the power. This method does not always work the first time, in my experience it works. Patience and coffee.

My tv [vizio vf550m] won't respond to a remote.
Vizio is famous for having main board issues. If you have replaced the IR board the only two other items it could be is a broken wire from the IR to main or the main board has an issue. Nothing else can stop the remote from working provided the remote is working properly.

When its at volume 100 it sounds like volume 50.
Check its speaker. If it is OK, check and replace damaged component/s on it audio output board, or replace the board as card basis.

Our t.v volume will go up and down out of nowhere why?
There could be a short in the remote control or were you turn it up on the tv it self. One way to check is to look around the button on the tv or the remote for any food or liquid that might have fallen around those buttons. If you can take these apart and clean were they hit the contact this could help. Thanks

My Vizio Tv volume does not work properly. When its at volume 100 it sounds like volume 50. What could be the problem? My question is how can I fix it? Let me know...
Okay I just called and found this out. I have the 32 inch vizio hd flat screen. My problem with weak and fluctuating volume, was that I have a cable box. Go into menu, then audio and under the advanced audio section you will see srs trusurround HD and srs trusurround. Basically this function automatically adjusts volume levels for satelites and whatnot. But because cable boxes automatically have this feature you could just turn off the srs trusurround. Hopefully that should help you.

i had this problem using dish network. my dish remote went bad so i got a new one and as soon as i programmed it volume and channel had mind of its own on both the dish remote and the original tv remote. you would hit it once and volume would go to max and vice versa when going down. ended up being the new remote was set on the uhf setting and i had to reset to the ir setting which is a small switch in remote next to batteries and then reset system info in dish receiver. problem went away instantly. both remotes work fine now. took two days to figure out and spent hours on internet looking for solution but no one had one. hope this helps.
