Vizio VX42L 10A ... must have been hit by lightning. Amber/orange light is on but TV wont turn on. I can unplug the unit and let it sit a while, then plug it back in and wait for it to cycle (must hear a click) and then it will cut on.... As long as I do it right after it 'clicks'
If I wait too long it will not cut on.
A few times, when it did come on, the screen soon would freeze. To rectify I just start the process all over.
I own several Vizio tv's and have had some success replacing main boards when a tuner, or HDMI goes out.
Unfortunately this TV has totally different issues.
I took the back off and dont see any obvious issues. Basically want to know if anyone has had similar issues and whether this is likely a main board or power supply board?
