Vizio LED TV Top Half Of TV Is Darker Than Bottom - Possible Fixes And What The Problem Is!

Did This Method To My VIzio TV & It Worked!! Many Thanks!!!! 👍

Mine ended up being xfinity box had to reboot box and it fixed it.

Thank you, I have the same TV and the unplug reset worked YYYAAAAYYYY.

It Hass to do with the overlay. When you first turn the TV on, there's a message that overlays on the top of the TV and dims part of the TV for some reason it gets stuck and doesn't re-Brighten. I believe it's a software issue.

MY MAIN MAN! I was so scared that I would have to buy a new tv but this worked great! THANK YOU!

Worked for me cuhhh

How do u know ots not the vidoe board?? I was told its prob my video board and to do tht before taking all that apart to get to the strip lights.

It worked!

Thank you, some tech were telling me its the motherboard. Bought some lights and now its fixed.

I’m literally doing the same thing with the dumpster dove Vizio I got.

Do you have a video repairing this TV issue? If so, can you please provide a link. Thanks!

I have a Vizio D43-D1 and this my exact problem. I do not have the tools and the TV was purchased in 2016 from Walmart. Is it worth repairing? What will it cost to repair?

How do you do that with a Roku or where can I take my tv to get those lights replaced

Basically all these TV's have a limit and I don't have that kind of energy to get it fixed I'll just look online for a TV see what I can get in a good price range

It worked!

Remember when Tvs lasted 20 years.

My tv only has backlights at the bottom, and
the new ones I bought do not want to power the whole screen, when it was the only one for this model number of the TV

Did you ever make a video of you repairing it?

sonofabitch! the power button hold down method worked

Thank you, The 30 second soft reset did the trick!

Will never buy another vizio tv again.

This drives me nuts!

THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS IN A PANIC

Happened to my LG 49" TV

Hey I have the same problem and replaced thr leds and still have the problem. Power board has been replaced and soon the t con board. Did new back Leds work for you?

Thank you very much. Tried the unplug and power button method. This worked with my locally made TV, saved me money and a trip to a technician. God bless from the Philippines.

would backlights from a broken lcd tv work for replacement to a tv that has a dimmed screen and lcd is fine? or are the blacklights all different makes and models nd i need to open it first to see what model and make it is first?

Awesome video worked on mine

the tip to reset the power by holding the power button down worked and the dark upper half returned to normal. thank tyou

A lot of the times it's the LED and they're super easy to fix. Just be patient and put all the layers back together slowly. My first attempt I rushed and destroyed the layers. All the junk tvs on CL have been gold for me since.

Useless video

my onn tv like this

IT WORKED!!!! THANK YOUUU

Could it also be a backlight issue for my monitor if the middle of the screen has decent brightness, and all around the outer edges it is dim?

Bro!!! I just tried the reset option you recommended and IT WORKED!!! You're a literal genius! Thanks

The unplug and holding power button improved my screen. Not 100 back to normal but closer than it was

100% worked in my mi 65 tv, thanks a lot

I have a Philips tv with the same problem. But there is no led backlight in the top of the tv. there is only led backlight in the bottom.

This actually worked! It seems like the EASY fixes never work for me, but the second option on this video actually worked perfectly. The right half of my 65 inch Vizio was darker. I figured a 30 second fix is at least worth a try. Still can't believe it worked! Thank you!!!!

Thanks! I did a reboot and it fixed it

After pressing system I don’t have the option to press reset and admin

Thanks so much for the fix tutorial!

Dude I just found this exact TV with the exact problem outside my house

Just say what you need to say and get it over with. One minute video stretched out to 5 minutes

My Element Smart TV has the same problem that I have

Neither worked for me.

the reset worked for me .... thanks !!

I reset my tv with the power button and now the power and screen flashes on but will not stay on...why?

Where is the second video?
