Left side is dark and getting darker
I purchased my Vizio E60 series tv 2 years ago. A week ago, the left side began to get dark. Now it is so dark, I can't open the menu and see the information well. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Vizio's response was buy a new one. Really? I just bought this one.
ANSWERS:
I contacted Vizio. They suggested unplugging TV. Hold power button on TV for 3-5 sec. Plug in TV and repower it up. It seemed to solve my issue!!
Its the backlight going i would swap it out for a new if you have the insurance on or if it hasnt been a year….
Ok - since i had nothing to lose - my TV was getting darker every day - before i was going to throw it out and call it a day with a NEW Samsung i grabbed a microfiber towel with windex and cleaned the screen .. while i was doing this i noticed 4 screws - YES sounds odd i know - you could see the screws while cleaning the screen gently .. mhhhh so i went to the back and loosen those 4 screws a tiny bit - then i continued cleaning the screen - i turned on COLOR BARS on my Apple TV and needles to say while cleaning the screen the black “spots” went almost 99% away … i continued this until I was happy with the result - tuned on a white picture (from my Fire TV as a background) and now you can’t really notice the black spots any more … my wife thought i got a new TV - I also reset the TV to factory defaults - there was NO update but once i did that it was downloading something too. FOR NOW i do not need a new TV - I couldn’t lose anything before you throw it out - try it !!!! POST BACK !
Money scheme. My black light went out and it’s not even 2yrs old yet… Vizio is the best tv quality by far but they make their products only last a year or less… it’s all a money scam to get richer… LG all the way. They the second best.
