My tv goes black..I turn it off it s back

I have a 50 inch model e50 e series 4k vizio tv..maybe 1.5 years old. When u turn it on in the morning the screen flickers then goes black..a power cycle Ussualy fixes it.. sometimes it does it two or three times. Which requires 2 or 3 power Cycles. I'm just worried this is a problem that could get larger. But it almost seems like the TV needs to warm up and then it's fine the rest of the day. . I have it connected to a DirecTV Genie with an HDMI cord. That's the only connection. I know the cord is good because I've used it on other devices. Any advice is greatly appreciated

Turn the TV off and unplug it. Press the power button on the side of the TV for 30 seconds. Let go of the power button and plug the TV back in. (source: https://support.vizio.com/s/article/No-V...). If this doesn't work, try unplugging for 5 minutes or more.

This problem could get larger. I had a TV a while back that used to have problems turning on. It would take 2-3 pushes of the power button before it would finally power up. Slowly, 2-3 pushes turned into 5-6, and finally no amount of button pushing would work. However, it took 2 years from the start of the problem to the TV finally stopped working. The TV was 10 years old when I finally put it to pasture 6 months ago. You never now with these things.

My Visio E420i-B0 died last night after 10 years of daily use. Screen went black in the middle of a program, sound stayed on. The "V" logo appears at power on, then after 2 seconds screen goes black. The power on led stays lit. I called Vizio, gave them my serial number and the lady said it's not worth the cost to repair, seems unfortunate. So I just ordered a Vizio V435-J01 43" 4k. Should be a good upgrade, I hope it lasts 10 years like the previous one did. :-)

@jeffreywal42990 going by your brief description either a new T-con board or replacing the backlight LED's would have kept your TV going for another 10 years :-) Hopefully you sold your boards and recycled the LCD screen. Don't need any more eWaste on our landfills.

Repair is War on Entropy!

Yup, agreed ... I am tempted to break out the parts cannon but will be ticked off if it turns out to be a waste of $. I wish there were still local repair guys like in the old days. Seems almost everything is disposable now.
