Ambient sensor on M420VT is

The Ambient Light Sensor isn't perfect, but if you're having the same problem I had, it's not an issue with the Ambient Light Sensor. Rather, your solution will be turning DCR (Dynamic Contrast Ratio) to Off.
Go to the PICTURE menu and choose Picture Mode. You can turn off DCR in one of two ways: Choose "Custom" and set it manually, or choose "Movie" or "Game" for your picture mode. (The "Movie" and "Game" default settings include DCR=off, whereas "Home" will include DCR=on.) Not sure about the defaults on the other modes but you can try them.
Keep in mind that you will need to make these changes for each input (HDMI, Comp, AV, DTV/TV). Also, if you continue to have trouble you can try playing with Adaptive Luma under the "Custom" settings.

Vizio TV remote is in

You need to "program" your Shaw remote to control your TV, including the volume up/down on the remote. Take your Shaw remote control, and follow the instructions on the back. If that does not work, telephone Shaw, and ask for technical support for TV.

Vizio all in one computer VIZIO CA-27 voltage and part number for subwoofer/power supply replacement

The power supply/subwoofer for the VIZIO CA-27 series all-in-one PCs is identified by the part number 715G6960-P02-001-002S or ADTVE1825AC71. The power supply connects to the motherboard via a proprietary dual jack Audio/Power cable. I couldn't find specific voltage details for the subwoofer/power supply in the available resources. For precise information, I recommend checking the user manual or contacting VIZIO customer support directly.

Why is my Vizio TV stuck on mute.
