    We haven’t been able to cast to our tv for over a year and couldn’t figure out how , this factory reset was the trick! Glad I found this video !

    This tutorial worked great. Vizio d60-f3 power on and off within 10 secs. Factory reset shown here fixed the issue. Be patient. It takes the tv 10+ minutes to fully reboot and restart. Messages appear every so often given struts update.

    Oh my Word! Thank you SOOO much. We have been living with the ghost for a year now. Not having a menu button on the remote was a challenge. We tried downloading the app and that didn't work either. This worked like a champ. Thank you again!!!!!!

    YES! Finally unlocked the TV. I did a firmware update, it finished, then I checked to see if the update was done. It started to do the same update again but when it restarted it got stuck with the spinning animation. This reset method finally broke the cycle.

    I watched 6 other videos before I came across yours. The issue was Spectrum replaced our modem. My TV says to go to the menu button to set up wifi. The problem is there is no menu button on the remote, and it is the one that came with the TV. Your factory reset did the trick thanks. 👍

    Thanks for the reset guidance. I added the Vizio software thinking it would improve its performance, what I got instead was Big Brother that wouldnt let me use my antenna but funneled me to their internet sources of entertainment. Thanks!!

    • @Andrea-nw8db
      @Andrea-nw8db 2 місяці тому

      Can an antenna work with your TV now? I keep trying this reset and getting nothing. It pushes me back to linking their smartcast, but that wifi jam they have on it is murder. Can't use my own wifi.

    I just got two of these with a blue only screen, displays images and text, just all blue.
    I use this technique successfully on one of them and I could see that in demo mode I had colors. They were funky, but I had reds and yellows And greens.
    Tomorrow I’ll pick up a remote and see if it actually works now .
    Thanks so much, this was excellent. I know it’s two years old, but it’s still helpful.

  • @clarkcramer727
    @clarkcramer727 Рік тому

    Problem: Vizio would randomly quit and exit from whatever app or input was active and go to a background picture. Problem got worse and reached the point where any given video would only run a couple of minutes--sometimes the TV would totally hang until I pulled the plug. After I proved to myself it was the TV itself and not the remote or any external influence I thought I was going to have to replace the TV. Simply powering off or pulling the plug did not fix the problem. But first, a quick internet check found this easy factory reset. Tried it--bingo, it worked! Problem resolved. (Of course, next step was to re-link TV to router, re-log into apps--just like having a brand new TV.) Reset function only took a few minutes. Re-establishing connectivity to the Apps (Netflix, Acorn, UA-camTV, etc. plus re-ordering the Apps screens) took about an hour (looking up paswords, and dealing with a few internet hiccups along the way.
