2 screen randomly goes black, then comes back?
my vizio tv is quite old. i would sat about 5 or maybe 6 years. its a 42 inch smart tv. its always worked great up until about 2 weeks ago i noticed that when i was playing PS4 the screen went black for maybe 2-3 seconds then came back on. in this time i could still hear the sound, but the picture went black. it only does it once in a while. so at this point its not a huge problem, but id like to repair it before it gets really bad.
does anyone know what causes this and what parts i would need to repair it?
Bu iyi bir soru mu?

My 42" Vizio is now 2 years old. I use it as a combo YV, Computer monitor and ROKU streamer.
The screen went black and the TV restarted exactly one hour after I turned it on each day. I experimented; found if I left the electrical source ON all night, the effect did not occur. Mine is plugged into a battery-operated UPS, which I turn off each night.
A firmware update from Vizio installed early this month seems to have fixed the issue.

After opening up tv to inspect boards to check for blown capacitor(s), I do not see any. I put it back together and swapped the sound bar hdmi cable with the signal cable and problem went away. It could have been a faulty connection or an hdmi cable gone bad. TV now works

I have the same issue on my VISIO 50-inch, but it only does this at 7 PM like clockwork while watching DVDs. The screen goes black and comes back at exactly 7 PM like clockwork. I even updated the firmware completely, but it still does this.
