Reset timer toshiba 62hm116
I do not think failing to reset the Lamp Timer would cause the Lamp not to light. You need to get into the Factory Menu while the picture is on in order reset the Timer. I believe you have a Ballast issue either because the Power Supply is not powering the Ballast or the Ballast not Powering the Lamp. In either case, the only way to know is to have a professional to check it out and give a estimate for repair.
I hope this helps,

Does your Tv have Input on the remote? if so maybe she hit the input button by mistake. The newer tvs have a few different inputs into them. Like HDMI or regular cable or vcr or dvd. i would try that to see if that helps. Hope you get it figured out.
Buzzing with no picture
If the lights on the front of the unit are flashing(remote light) then the bulb may have blown. I had the same problem with a panasonic. Bulbs are about 50 bucks
Extremely loud fan...shaky picture
I would suggest to replace the fun to keep the light running cooler, the reason you loose the video after a period of time is because the fun is not providing enough cooling.
If the fun is noise it means the bearings inside of it are not working well anymore.
Let me know if you need more help.
I heard a pop on
Sir the problem of your unit is the lamp try to replace it it is much better to use a gloves and wash your hand after replacing the lamp because this lamp contains mercury. follow this steps.
1. Unplug the unit to main ac outlet. Remove the bulb housing cover from the back of the TV. Using a screwdriver, carefully remove the cover to reveal the old bulb. Using a cloth, remove the bulb from the TV by first unplugging it from the wiring harness. Carefully rock the harness back and forth until it comes free from the bulb. Push in the bulb slightly and turn it a quarter-turn to remove it from the bulb housing.
2. Install the new bulb. Do not touch the new bulb with your fingers, as any grease or fingerprint from your hands will damage the tiny mirrors in the bulb. Instead, carefully handle the bulb using the cloth. Insert it into the bulb housing and secure the door. Test the unit. Plug in and turn on your Toshiba TV and make sure that the new bulb is installed properly and that the image looks crisp.
3. Reset the lamp time counter. Each Toshiba TV comes with a lamp hour meter stored in its software. If you do not reset the lamp timer, the unit may stop operating when it gets to a certain time (refer to your manual because each Toshiba TV is slightly different). To reset your Toshiba lamp timer, turn off the TV, wait 10 seconds, hold down the "on," "menu" and "input" buttons on the remote at the same time, and turn the power back on. A yellow light should appear in the bottom corner of the TV indicating that the lamp timer has been reset.
Hope this help good day and best regards.

The remote control for this model is no longer available through Toshiba. You can operate the set but will not be able to use the picture size features. You should be able to work the main functions and also access the picture and audio on- screen adjustments. If you find a vendor that happens to have miscellaneous remotes, the remote number is CT90164.
I hope this helps,

Green led indicator light is off on my 62" toshiba
when you turn it off your light blinks because your internal fans are still spinning allowing the inside of the chassis to cool off, hence the reason you dont watch a DLP TV and then unplug it. DLP's are JUNK

The bulb gets its spark from a unit called: Lamp Engine. If the lamp engine is bad, you get no spark, maybe the ballast is bad. This place above can re-build your lamp engine. A new one is $500+. Seen some for $600. Service calls are 150-200. You can take out the lamp engine if you've got some tools and the will. Send it to them for an examination and rebuild. They told me if I could switch channels while my set was trying to come on, and I got audio from the other channels, it most likely is the lamp engine.
Give it some thought. Toshiba didn't tell me about that, Geek Squad did. Toshiba doesn't seem to give much of a darn about you once you spend your money for the set. Good luck. RW
Another Bad Ballast?
Go to this website and type in your model number see what they list in parts /prices They might have free service Manual you can print out online.
1-800-638-3328 wait untill you get ballast board ,before making any desision about more parts
If it turns out that ballast didnt clear problem then return it to company.Have you Checked Lamp Fan, Ballast Fan,some DLPs will have up to 4 Fans, if fans stops cooling set will shut off

The color wheel on this set is not available. First thing I would do is replace the lamp. MCM electronics has a Philips for $99.00. The hum could have been the lamp fan which is common on these sets. There is a kit from Hitachi the includes some rubber dampers. What I commonly see on these sets is when the lighr engine is going bad(this is where the color wheel is) the color gets a green,bue or yellow tint and trhe picture may get dim. its rare that the color wheel stops working on this model. Call adifferent tech for sevice. Anyone with experience on these sets will know whats up.
