My 37'' Vizio LCD TV has a green haze and lines on the TV

When dark colors appear on the TV, instead of being black they are green as well as some of the faces have a greenish tint to them.

    I have the same problem after 6 months, Walmart wont take it back, Vizio is simply flat out garbage, cheap junk they push into the market like companies did back in the 80's. Stay with the "S's" Sony, Samsung, Sharp.

    I have the same problem, they came out and replaced my main board but it did nothing. I finally took my TV apart and there are what looks to me some sort of electrical shielding under the small board on the left side of the tv. I removed the board and reset the shielding, once I put it back together the lines were still there but very low. I then tapped the cover over the board over the shielding the the lines immiediatly went away. Hope they stay away. Could be an electrical sheilding problem. Good Luck!

It is a very simple fix. Replace the LVDS cable will fix it. This cable connect the mainboard to the panel.

If any colors (red, green, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to make sure it is securely connected. Loose or broken pins in the cable connector could cause an improper connection.
Connect the LCD display to another computer.

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.

Vizio TV has purple haze and colored stripes on the sides of the picture.

You possibly have a failing hi-voltage module or fly-back transformer going bad. If it has a fly-back transformer, It's not worth the trouble. Some repair shops will sell you a module. Call a repair shop for help.

How do I get rid of purple and green wiggly lines? The black screen that appears when switching between channels was green a couple of weeks ago, that problem stopped after I unplugged the set for a while....

You have a bad LCD control board,It overheats and causes colored lines,screen to darken,or the color go floresent. Also check the power supply for bad caps.
when you have it apart.They usualy go bad on these tv's. It will cause the tv to take longer to come on.Or you have to hit the power button several times to get it on.
