after replacing the power supply in my vizio tv, everything works, but the screen is too dark… and theres a faint crackling noise that i think is coming from both backlights im assuming ive plugged something in backwards, or perhaps the new power supply i got was bad? im not sure where to turn now i cant find the model number but the serial number is: VIZIO VO47L FHDTV10A thanks in advance for any answers
@lorielavender could very well be a bad or incorrect part. See if the attached image will help to verify that you connected things right. This shows the disassembly so things will be in opposite order for the reassembly
