Question about Toshiba 57H83 57" Rear Projection HDTV

Toshiba 43 inch projection set

I have a 2003 Toshiba Projection TV. Last weekend while watching the set the screen went into vertical lines and after 1 or 2 minutes went blank. If I left the set off for 1 or 2 hours the picture will come on for 5 minutes then repeat above problem. Any ideas on a fix. Thanks

Thanks for the quick response! A local repairman wanted to replace a part, don't remember the name, and said it would cost $475 to fix and he would need to take the set to his shop. From your response it sounds like an in-home fix is appropropriate. What do you think?

Possible bad solder connections in convergence circuit or vertical deflection circuit. This happens in alot of equipment. After warm up, expansion of joint pulls connections loose. Recommend not running like this, could cause component failure.

Regular TV, you mean by the aerial and internal tuner, if it is like that, then it is a problem with the TV tuner board.
If by regular TV you mean an external TV box, then the TV box is faulty or you have a cable or ferquency problem.

More than likely, as the tuning is governed by a remote control function, it is a dodgy remote control.
Try putting the remote control out of the room.
Hope this helps.

Toshiba 46In HD Rear projection TV Vertical lines on screen

We also have vertical lines with our JVC 62"... turning it off and letting it cool down is the only solution. For us, we know it's a problem with heat. We simply are wits end on fixing it. added two additional fans, a exterior fan to blow heat away from the back of the tv, pulled everything else away, etc.... Anyway, goodluck.
