GET MY FREE PDF (26 pages). My best tips on how to diagnose a broken LCD TV without taking anything apart → frugalrepair.com/resources
Watch the story of how I got a 65” 4K tv that won’t turn on (Vizio M65-C1) and my journey to fix it. The previous owner told me that it stopped working one day and would no longer power on. The LCD was not damaged so I definitely wanted to fix this tv. The information I found online about the M65-C1 ended up being extremely helpful for this repair. If you have this same model and problem I hope this video will help you to fix your TV. Also, if you appreciate this video please consider sharing this with others (there is a share button under the video), Thank you!
