I have a Toshiba Theaterwide HD digital ready tv (Model # 56H80). Never got the part to be able to watch digital broadcast programs. Can I still get the part to be able to use the TV?

Yes you can still find a DTV, Digital to Analog OTA tuner, converter box in some locations. Amazon has a number of them listed here, https://www.amazon.com/analog-to-digital-dtv-converters/b?ie=UTF8&node=979935011 . Some even have an option for recording video to a USB drive. For your Toshiba 56H80 TV, make sure to chose one with RF, composite or component video output on the converter. (Note: not all models are in stock. Other vendors will have some as well.) Cindy Wells (My experience with the converter boxes from the start of the change over is that some models failed easily. The power supply transformer failed on one model with the USB recording option. Another got hit by a surge during a thunderstorm.)

I have a Toshiba 50l3400u and the bottom half of tv is a little darker than the top half. What would cause that? What part or troubleshooting should I do or replace? Thanks in advance

Replace the unit: If you were a trained technician, I can see repairs, but unless you have that ability; replace the Toshiba and get on with your life.

Why does my Toshiba tv screen go from dark to light?

The TV's main culprits to be causing this problem are "dynamic contrast" which maybe darkening the backl light in dark scenes an example a night time or a dark scene in a movie. To make the blacks be deeper (as LCD/LED TV are rubbish at blacks) or brighten it on bright scenes to make the light be lighter and once again to make the blacks be deeper so the images pop out. Also "eco lighting" this will dim or brighten the image based on the amount of light in a room in order to be saving energy. Ether way the easy fix is to turn both of these features off. You will get rid of the problem and enjoy more subtler shades of colour that would otherwise be bleached (brightend) or crushed(darkend) out..

On a Toshiba 55HT1U tv, what should the DC side of the rectifier be on the power board ? It reads 130v. shouldn't it be 160v ?

What are you measuring it with? There are peak and RMS meters, I dont see that voltage being an issue especially if it is on a load

  1. Using the remote control, press the following button sequence in a timely fashion: 1 , 2, 3, 4 (This will release the "Retail Lock" mode)
  2. Enter the User Menu and locate Reset Factory Defaults for the subject model.
  3. Complete the Factory Defaults reset.
  4. Power on the TV.
You can reset and eliminate the lock on some televisions without the remote, using a few tactics. Hold the power button for five seconds. The television will automatically restart. If the lock is still on, unplug the television and remove the battery from the back panel of the television.

I have a old Toshiba 42wl66z. I had a problem. With hdmi ports, so I replace the card. The TV now is switching on, but the screen is always black and it doesn't respond to remote control or TV buttons. Think that the TV feels the commands but nothing appear on screen. I can switch on and off with remote. Any idea? Thank you in advance.

I suggest you double check all the plugs and sockets on all the boards of the TV. It's possible you could have disconnected one by accident, or not put one back. Check also for bad solder joints or anything that could have been damaged during disassembly of the set.

Where are the batteries to a Toshiba remote located at

Hi Rebecca, usually batteries are replaced by sliding the cover from the the back of the remote control. If you could send pictures of the back I can confirm the proper procedure.

Use code search on your One for All URC to find something that works. If a search through all codes stored in the URC fails, try a different one.

I have a Toshiba Regza when I turn it on, the sound will come on but the picture blanks out. It takes 8-10 try's until I get both picture and sound

Fault with the main power supply regulator board. Check and replace damaged component/s at its main power regulator [SMPS] section circuit. Contact any service technician. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ It will be best to replace the power supply regulator board as card basis rather than making "Surgery" to it; which usually will make loss for both money and time. Even though you can make it right, it will cost around an amount equal to the cost of a new board; including the cost of (spare parts + service charge) More to say, most of the spare parts to it will be difficult to get from open electronic spare part market. This is true to most of the flat panel TV power supply boards; irrespective of its brand and screen size.

How do I troubleshoot my 1993 toshiba tv wont power pn

When it does not power up, just start checking the fuse. When you have a multimeter, you can check if the power still comes in the tv. Also go on to check if the on / of switch does work correct. But if you don't have electronic skills at all, please ask a technician, because inside the tv you can find lots of places where the high voltages can harm or even can kill you.
