Repair A Vizio Tv

Vizio's HDTVs are complex electronics that should be repaired by trained and certified technicians.


Television aficionados take their sets for granted, in that TVs are reliable and rarely need frequent maintenance and repair in comparison to a refrigerator or washing machine. A broken television causes major disruption, however, because it happens unexpectedly and without warning sometimes. Vizio's HDTV (high-definition television) product offering runs the gamut from small one-room TVs (22-inch) to large classroom or home theater TVs (55-inch). Whether in the home or in the classroom, a broken TV interrupts recreation and learning. These inconveniences are unavoidable, but an owner can shorten downtime by contacting Vizio technical support to start a repair ticket.


Instructions


1. Find the label on the side or back of the Vizio. Write down the model and serial numbers on paper for reference.


2. Collect the the proof of purchase, such as the purchase receipt or invoice, and have ready if needed.


3. Navigate to Vizio's "Support" page (See Resources). Click on the "Register Your Vizio" link at the top.


4. Type in your name, address, and product information, and then click the "Register" button. Vizio offers warranty service to the original purchaser, and registration establishes ownership.
