Check if the manu button is not depressed.
Power cycling can solve a lot of odd problems with Vizio TVs. First disconnect the TV's power cord from the power outlet and leave it unplugged. Then press and hold the power button on the TV for 10 seconds. After you have held the button for 10 seconds, let go then try to power the TV on.

If that does not fix consult with your local dealer.

Hope that is helpful.
