I am Experiencing the same problem. What was the solution? Everything I read earlier was to solder the connection but my layout is different then the older Vizio models. I have the exact same problem on for about 1 min then black with only sound. Model -# D65u-D2.
Is this a good question?

@jybarra you did not tell us what you have tried. Your question was left as an answer so some of the content may have gotten lost. What you are describing could possibly be caused by a bad power board which then causes the backlight to turn off, but can also be a T-con or main board issue. The power board supplies the voltages needed by the backlight. Of course there is a possibility that your backlight LED array has failed or you have some loose cable. You have to check this out by removing the back and measuring the output of the power board. If the power is supplied but the backlight turns off, it's the array. You do want to try to reset your TV. Unplug it and push and hold the power button for about 30sec-1min then plug it in while holding the power button depressed. If that does not help, remove the back of your set and post some good images of your boards with your question. That way we can see what you see and could try to assist you further. Use this guide Adding images to an existing question for that
