Television Locked screen

My son brought a Nintaus N5119A TV for his own room from his pocket money about five years ago and it has worked perfectly until last night.
It has supported his Wii, Playstation and Game Cube without any problems.
Last night he was watching television. He thinks he may have rolled over onto the remote (??).
Now all we have is a blue screen with a red lock down in the left lower quadrant of the screen. Television will not respond to panel controls or remote control.
We have turned it off, unplugged it etc. with no luck.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Gary

I had the same problem on my TV (Nontaus N5119A). As suggested above, I switched the TV, pressed and held the 'Display' button for about 10 seconds and TV unlocked.

Thanks a lot for posting the solution. Much appreciated.

If you've still got that problem, I held the "display" button for about 10 seconds on the remote! Not sure if your TV has this, but it is worth a shot... hold a button (a non numeric one I suppose) for a while!

Our TV has been perfect for many years. We now suddenly have the picture compress, if you will, to the bottom 2/3's of the television screen, and it makes an angle like a triangle going toward the bottom....

This fault sounds like failure of the LINE OUTPUT TRANSFORMER.
It can be fixed, but may cost you around $120, possibly more if you have to call out an engineer.
Best NOT to use the TV as it is, because it could possibly damage the system.
If you do use it, this line will become permanent and if you get the TV fixed later, there will always be a burnt section of the screen where the line was - so I suggest you either pay to get it fixed right away, or consider buying a replacement.

Hope this helps!

I turn on the television and the power button flashes and I can't get the television to do anything. Any suggestions?

This is a perfect example of a Television going into the protection mode. By that flashing light on the front panel it's telling you that there is an internal defect. There is no way to bypass that and it would raise safety concerns even if you could. The only solution there is to have the set diagnosed by a professional. If it's more than 10 years old replace the set. If it's less than five years old it might pay you to get a diagnosis. Between 5 and 10 years it's a gamble, you might be better off spending the money on a new TV. Toshiba is a reputable brand and there are many other choices out there.

Tv problems

There are some capacitors on the power/HV deflection board that usually blow. You can actually see that they have vented on the top. Cp150 is the most common to go.

Television not satying on.

It needs to be brought into the repair shop for service. There is nothing that you can do to make it come on. It's just an old set.
