20 Most Recent Toshiba TheaterWide 62HM94 62" Rear Projection HDTV Questions & Answers

What are the labels on the lights? Timer/Lamp/Service and what color is wich?

One possible reason I can think of here is I think this model had a quick start or quick on feature.What will happen if it does is set will come on and work normally--when you turn it off and watch the lamp, it will dim down but NOT GO OUT--AFTER 3-5 MINUTES THE FAN WILL (LAMP FAN) go off.It was a stupid feature, lamp is running 7/24 at about 40 percent brightness--idea was you did not have to wait the 10-15 seconds for brightness to come up and be normal when set is first turned on.If this is your problem look in the main menu for a setting like that and disable or deselect it.Set when cold will take longer to reach full brightness and when turned off lamp will go completely OFF and lamp fan will continue to run for a few minutes.I hope this is your problem---PS if the set is real dusty inside it can cause issues but that is rare in this set.

This isn't gonna help you, but I have the same problem on my 62HM15A, think we have about the same tv, widescreen DLP,?

My TV does the same thing powers with a blining lite then powers off. First it powered on with sound no pic, then would shut down and power up again with pic and sound , now i gots a nothing just powering on and off until i shut the thing off manually.

thanks, just posted here in case some answers bipea's question and it relates to mine.

Hi:
CHeck for open line fuse you may of had a surge that blew the fuse especially when there is no power indication at all. IF no fuses are blown on the power supply then suspect a faulty power supply circuit.

take your tv to a technian and ask him to check the power supply filter.
some of the ac ripple are passing through to the main amplifier.
a filter comsist of ( semi comductor, inductops and capacitors.

Try a new lamp

I'm not sure of a Toshiba TV but my Phillips and a friend of mine's Mitsubishi TV do this very same thing when the system has detected a voltage spike. Usually this is caused by static discharge (let me guess you have carpeting). Unplug the unit and hold the power button for 10 seconds and leave it unplugged for 5 minutes. Then plug her back in and give it a whirl.

Give us an update.

I've already paid for the premium service and yet did not get any support. Why would you advertise online chat support when your experts will not assist. I think it will be a good website if it operated as advertised, unfortunately it doesnt. I am very disappointed in the response time and so-called service. Oh yeah my tv is still making a buzzing sound.

I think the lamp is bad. If you are able try a new lamp.

its probably the bulb. if the red and gren lights are flashing simultaneously, than that means the bulb is burnt amd you need to order a new one and replace it.
hope this helps

All you do is remove the screws from the panel in the back and pull the bulb assembley out.

If your lamp imploded then your product is perm. damaged. You could have a service center come out and try to clean it, however, by the time you pay for that if its not under the warranty then its going to probly cost you just as much as you might as well towards a new one. Also, Toshiba is one of the worst manufacturers that has issue on their HM195 or HM95 series. They had plenty of recalls going on with that series. If you own that model, you might want to see if the manufacturer can do something for you if you are still within the recall guidelines. Use this as a tool: Click on: "Replace lamp" This is Samsungs website, however, replacing a DLP lamp is the same process in every manufacturers products. Use the prompts in the pop up you see from there. See if that helps. http://www.samsung.com/us/support/guides/howToGuideSearchList.do?group=televisions&type=televisions&subtype=dlptv&model_nm=HL-T6756W&dType=D&mType=UM&vType=R# Good luck!

If the light is on a steady red, thats an indication that the lamp is bad, or the lamp circuit is bad. If you replace the lamp, and the set still does not come on, this is going to be a tough one if you are trying to trouble shoot it without a manual. You can get a manual here http://www.servicemanuals.net/results.aspx?type=SM&brand=0&model=62HM94e Start with the power supply, and see if the regulator is working. If so move on to the lamp ballast circuit. If you need an owners manual, you can get one from here http://www.tacp.toshiba.com/tacpassets-images/models/62HM94/docs/62HM94_om_e_rev1.pdf Good Luck

This is a known issue with this TV. The following might resolve it: Check Mute and Volume: Ensure that the TV is not muted and that the volume is set appropriately. Sometimes accidental button presses can lead to muted sound or low volume. Inspect External Speakers: If you're using external speakers, verify their connections. Loose cables or faulty speakers can cause sound issues. Test Different Inputs: Connect a non-HDMI device (such as a DVD player) to the TV. Observe if the sound distortion occurs. If it doesn't, the problem might be related to the HDMI signal from your Virgin box. HDMI Troubleshooting: If the issue persists with the DVD player over HDMI, consider the following: HDMI Cable: Check the HDMI cable for damage or loose connections. Virgin Signal: Contact Virgin to inspect the signal/lines and replace the box if necessary. Mainboard Replacement (if needed): If the sound distortion persists, it could be due to a faulty sound processor chip on the TV's mainboard. In this case, consider replacing the mainboard.
