Unfortunately, you fried the HDMI controller. Not necessarily part of the power supply "main board." (Not sure which board is the HDMI controller in your specific TV. It's usually a separate board by itself). Easiest workaround is to use the "Component" cable connectors. The downside is you only get 720P. However, most cable/satellite and _all_ antenna signals are only 720P anyway. Most people only see 1080P when viewing Blu-Ray discs. Aside from replacing the HDMI controller, the cheapest workaround for multiple source connections is to buy an HDMI to Component Converter A/V box, which allows you to connect multiple devices to one box with one set of Component cables connecting to the TV. Then select various "sources" via the box.

You will have to isolate the main board and Inverters.
Unplug the inverters and turn on the set.
If it "turns on" then try re-connecting each inverter seperately to see if only one is causing the problem.

SOURCE: 42" Vizio - no picture no sound

If the TV goes in standby, then it is in protection mode.

Ensure also that the fault is not coming from a faulty receiver box sending
bad signal, check if you get same problem on DVD with no receiver box
connected.

Try first leaving the TV power cord unplugged for some times, let say one hour or so.

The flashing light indicates a diagnostic state called protection.
When the TV goes on protection there are only two possible causes.

1The internal circuits are jammed because of electrostatic charges accumulating on capacitors, or because of a wrong voltage read by the main chip on your monitor controller board. this started the protection circuit.

2 The protection circuit detected a wrong voltage or abroken contact, identified an internal fault and kicked in , starting the flashing light.

If you are in situation one, then the TV will reset just unplugging power cord for one or two hours,sometimes even minutes.

If you are in situation 2 , then there is an internal fault.

If under warranty contact the manufacturer ringing the number on the user manual

If you want to repair at your own expenses, just locate any good qualified repairer.

On LCD Pay particular attention at inverter and power board, power board can be inspected looking for bulged or leaking capacitors, then tested with a multimeter. The inverter is more difficult to test , there is need to read voltages, should be done by a tech. Also the LCD controller board can cause same problem

I get on top of screen HDMI ROKU. ON THE BOTTOM OF SCREEN. NO SIGNAL. HOW DO I FIX

lost the free manual? it has simple instructions.

no RoKU stated model, saying just Roku means nothing, oK>
it has a real name and model, just like you unstated TV.
lots of Roku)
I have the Ultra (non Dongle) not the STICK.
mine is (best) a floating box. with 1 AC power pack (see?)
and is not optional.
first is power, the Ruku must have power.
then on mine power light on the roku glows
next is internet
and last is hdmi connected to TV.

Power, then internet and hdmi.
finally is TV set to TV's hdmi port number that is ROKU.!
if our ROKU is only a streaming stick (DONGLE)
it steals power from the TV HDMI port.


mine is ethernet connected for max performance

my guess is you have the TVs input selector set wrong
wide guess blind to true MODEL I am, non stated
good luck
and nothing beats a ROKU,
for 1 reason the player apps in it all work and are updated for free.
That is why TVs no come with ROKU inside for that 1 reason.
I use ROKU plex and to my own private servers.

Just hooked up the streaming stick to HDMI to the TV. nothing is showing up, What do I do now?

Sounds like you have a bad connection on either your roku stick or your HDMI PORT.Does you ROKU stick show a white light if not check power cable or electrical plug.
Try wiggling ROKU stick just a hair or push it in and out until you get a signal..A purple screen with the words ROKU should show up on TV.If you have a bad port on TV it would have to be replaced but this is rare,if you have a second port on tv try that.Have you tried your ROKU stick on another tv?Does your streaming stick go in vertically or horizontally,if it goes in vertically it may be pressing against side of tv prohibiting a good connection.You could try a HDMI cable, plug the HDMI cable into tv and put ROKU in other side of cable.There is also a restart button on ROKU stick push it and it will start blinking,if it doesn't light up you may have a defective ROKU stick.

How do I hook up a roku stick?

I am guessing you mean the HDMI connector type Roku?

You simply plug the Roku into a free HDMI port on your TV, then switch your TV input to the proper HDMI selection, then start your setup. I believe this also needs to be plugged into the wall for power as HDMI does not supply power.

If you have an iPhone or other similar devices, you can download the ROKU app to control the device.

The link I provided may help. Setup help

I have vizio sv470m and all of the 4 hdmi plugs stopped working one at a time.

Power doesn't have to be knocked out for a cable box to destroy the HDMI ports on a TV. Thunder miles away will put voltage spikes on the cable system which in turn trashes the main board in the TV. You can get parts for your TV here: TV Parts Universal TV Stands DLP Chips ShopJimmy

Problem with Vizio SV421XVT

I am also having the same symptoms for my SV421XVT. TV works great except all HDMI ports are not receiving signal. Devices work through the AV Ports, and TV reception is fine. New Roku box is also not working through HDMI but works with AV. Wish I had a solution to this.


On a another forum for another TV it was suggested that boards need to be replaced. I hope I can get these boards for a reasonable cost.
