myuserid Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Sounds like you have a faulty graphics card, let me know your model number and I will see if I can find one for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 its going to be a warrenty job, there is almost no buisness repairing lcd or plasma tv's they are all simply scraped under warenty or the screens are replaced. They cant fix the plasma or lcd screens as they are sealed units. How old is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myuserid Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 I have checked my spares catalog and cant find any main boards or graphics cards, as the TV was discontinued some time ago. All I can suggest is the following: 1) Give Toshiba a call and see if they have any spares. 2) Call your local tv engineer and ask them if they can take a look, it may cost a few hundred £'s to repair, just depends on how much you paid, I think they were around the £700-1000 mark when new. 3) Stick it on eBay, you will get around £50-100, if you can post you may get more, for postage use interparcel they will setup a collection for around £60 via UPS. Sorry I was unable to find your part normally I'm fairly good at locating stockists, anyway good luck and let me know how you get on.

catroofel Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Whats wrong with it? does help if i give symptoms !! picture goes quite 'pixelly' and confused with colours, then it pretty much rains red pixels and eventually the screen goes black, sound stays on though. i was told that this can happen when put too near a heat source is it above or beside a radiator as this will deplete the unit and render it useless.

Tom Janaway Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 I was told that if you tilt it forwards or backwards or any direction that isnt upright then it will break because of the magnet inside it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they are shipped they are tilted & flipped upside down etc, the only magnets inside a plasma TV are the speakers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
