Did you run a version from out of region? They usually dont get you a full brick unless you power off or something. What do you get when you boot up? anything?

It was the same region and when I turn it on my tv doesnt get signal I guess its because its just displaying black or something.

You made a thread about it yesterday, why did you make a new one?
because the other one was on another section not wii hacking.

You might try phoning Nintendo and say that you get a black screen after a disc update.
I read a post from some other guy who got he Wii replaced for free.

But you have to be a lucky bastard I think.

I'm not sure they would be able to find any due to the console being bricked, though in the unlikely event that it happens say a relative or friend did something to it lol.

But he stated he doesn't have modchip, so this wouldn't apply to him. Would it ?
Yes it could. Any firmware below 3.3 v2 using a retail disc that updates to 3.4 can cause this if it had been updated before (and then downgraded back).
