Black Screen,
I think there are 4 possibilities for your problem. In order:
1. Is this a configuration issue with the set? Do you have the proper input selected? Did the grand-kids help you by re-configuring your set with random remote commands? Can you issue commands through the remote and get reasonable responses from the TV? A black screen could just be an incorrect signal source selected by the remote.
2. Does the set have power? i.e. does the little light on the set come on when you turn it on? Be sure to test the AC line power to make sure the breaker has not tripped. You will get nowhere without power. If the set has power, then;
3. Is there a video signal? Is the cable or satellite box (if you have one attached) Live? That is, does it's little light come on ? Again, gotta have power to work.
Cycling through the possible sources on the TV, one source should be over the air broadcast. Antenna or not, you should see snow on the screen when on this source, indicating that the set is trying to display something, it just has nothing to display. If you see snow, you can be pretty sure the set is working and you need to track down why there is no signal.
4. If you have power and signal, and you still have black on the screen, you may have an internal problem in the set. A good test would be to borrow a TV set from a friend and swap out your set. If your friend's set works, you have a TV problem. If it doesn't, your set is probably fine and you need to look elsewhere. Note that a working friend's set rules out problems everywhere except your TV set.
You should try to correlate when this problem started with external events. Did you have a lightning storm? Spilled a drink? Sit on the remote? What happened (if anything) just before the set quit working?
If you have a problem with the set, I am not qualified to advise you on the repair, nor should you attempt it. There are serious voltages present in all TV sets, and you could DIE!
Take the set to a qualified service tech. and have them repair it, or take the modern route and recycle it before buying a new replacement.

My Vizio p55-c1 tv wont turn on; need help with diagnosis. see details below.

Hi Alon, as you say, it would be very possible that the main board is responsible for the malfunction of your Vizio TV
Because you say you have no image, no sound, assuming you turn it on knowing what input it is and there is some ymagen and sound, but the TV does not show you anything
If you were to have sound, there could be the T-Con board, since this does not affect the audio
I hope you can solve the problem
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola Alon, por lo que comentas, seria muy posible que la placa principal sea la responsable del mal funcionamiento de tu TV Vizio
Porque dices que no tienes ni imagen, ni sonido, suponiendo que lo enciendes sabiendo en que entrada esta y que ah? hay alguna imagen y sonido, pero el TV, no te muestra nada
Si llegaras a tener sonido, ah? podr?a ser la placa T-Con, ya que esta no afecta el audio
Espero puedas resolver el problema
Saludos Franco Dosil

My tv turns on but screen is black

Hello Jess, if you turn on your TV, you say that the screen goes black, ask, do you hear the sound?
If so, it is very possible that you have a problem with the backlighting of the TV, try turning on the TV in a dark room, to see if you get to see any image, another test is removing the back cover, illuminating the inside of the TV from behind , also in a place with low light and see if the image appears in some sector of the screen, if you can see something, the failure in the retro feed is corroborated
I do not know what brand and model is TV
I suggest you take it to a specialized technical service
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola Jess, si enciendes tu TV, dices que la pantalla se pone negra, pregunta, escuchas el sonido?
Si es asi es muy posible que tengas un problema con la retroiluminacion del televisor, prueba de encender el televisor en una habitacion obscura, para ver si llegas a ver alguna imagen, otra prueba es retirando la tapa posterior, iluminar el interior del televisor desde atras, tambien en un lugar con poca luz y observar si aparece la imagen en algun sector de la pantalla, si logras ver algo, se corrobora la falla en la retro alimentacion
No se que marca y modelo es el TV
Te sugiero que lo lleves a un servicio tecnico especializado

LG 50PG20 Plasma,, nothing shows on screen its all black

This model was known for issues with the Y-sustain, Y-drives, and the Z-sustain boards. These boards help process the picture image to the screen.

When one or more of these boards fail, the screen stays black, and you only have audio & on/off.

You could call LG and try to get your TV repaired at a discount if you can convince LG to honor this known issue.

Another issue could be the actual panel has gone bad. The plasma panel in your TV has a two warranty and LG would fix that for free. Well…it would be free as long as it’s not past two years of your date of purchase.

What zip code are you in?
