Lable in Righthand corner on INPUT1 wont go away

You have a bad LCD panel, it would be cheaper to replace the TV, sorry for the bad news.

Hi Chris,
Sounds like a popped capacitor......if you look inside again, try looking to see if any of the Capacitors are blown...

if the tv blacks out and the light in front stays on its the backlight going out...my first vizio did it within 3 mos of purchase had to send in and they ended up sending whole new tv

check for input selection setting

Inspect for damaged pin on INPUT 1 socket. (left most of the three HDMI connectors)
A quick pull on the cable can damage the pins.
=== If you see mis-aligned pins then please power off the set before making corrective action. ===
============== Here's a textbook instruction from Mitsubishi
If the New Device Found Screen Displays No HDMI Control Option If the New Device Found screen shows no option for HDMI Control, one of these conditions applies: • HDMI Control is turned off in the menus of the new device Action: a. Highlight EXIT and press ENTER to close the New Device Found screen. b. Display the device's setup menus and enable the device's CEC capabilities. c. Wait for the TV's New Device Found screen to appear again. d. If the New Device Found screen does not appear, power off the device. Power on the device and wait for the New Device Found screen to display with the HDMI Control option.
Next time you see the NEW DEVICE FOUND screen pop up.
Toggle the CEC field (on the right side of the pop up) to OFF.

You will need to look for your input button on the tv or the remote and look at the back of your tv to see where your wires go!!!
You would make sure that the wires go to (input 1) are input2
Then you put your input on input1 are input2 and your wires in input1 are input2 on the back of the tv.

If your tv and surround has an optical input/output.Then you can connect with an optical lead.This will then play the sound from whatever you are watching.You normaly select dig1 or input1 on the surround system.

OK dvd output red/white/yellow cables into TV input1 red/ white/ yellow or anyinput then on remote select that input and you are ready!

Hi,

You just need an RCA cable. Find the output from your dvd and connect to the input of your tv. The cable has three connectors in three colors...red/white/yellow. Res and white is audio and yellow is the video.
