Question about Toshiba 42H81 42" Rear Projection Television

Toshiba 42H81 - Constant jumping picture on scren

The picture just keeps jumping on my Toshiba 42H81. The TV will show perfect for about 2 hours, then the picture starts jumping. If I turn off the tv for a few hours, when I turn it back on, it shows good for about 30 minutes, then the picture starts jumping again. Now the jumping is constant. Last year, I had the same problem and I paid a repair man $400 to change the original board with a refurbished board. However, it seems like the problem has reoccurred. Can someone tell me what is the problem here or is this tv a lemon? It doesn't make sense to me why would I encounter the same problem if the whole board was changed. Walt

Thanks for responding.

Approx. how much will it cost to purchase the hyper module and the stks packs? Is this a big job for a repairman?

Picture looks like it is jumping

Sounds like a vertical sync issue on the chassis board. However you also mentioned the picture moves left to right or vice versa which would suggest a horizontal sync issue. Either issue is not repairable by the DIY. Sync issues must be isolated using test equipment usually found in repair shops. My suggestion push it down a hill and enjoy the show then go buy that flat screen you almost purchased last week.

Toshiba 42H81 Blinking on and off light

Very common problems with this TV set. Toshiba even has a technical bulliten on this and several other models of tV set. The negitve terminal of C809 and C810 need to be soldered, as there are no eyeletes in the printed circuit board. This problem could also take out the fuse, F860. Replace if necassary. Good Luck

where can I find suitable replacement remote for my Toshiba model 61X81 television that will give me most of my television features. I was given this television but they did not have the remote and I was watching the demo and the remote that I does not even come close. Short of buying a exact model replacement from Toshiba, or eBay , is their a suitable 'clone' that will do the job.
