Toshiba horizontal distortion

TV has horizontal distortion. It is in varying amounts, but can be substantial. It does make a crackling sound when it flashes. It's an interference of some sort that goes across the entire front of the screen. Odd thing, it plays a DVD perfectly. I have eliminated the cable as a possible problem. I have moved another TV to the same outlet, and it played perfectly. Also moved the problem TV to another outlet and it had the interference. It's around 9 years old, so if I need to replace it, that's what I will have to do. Just didn't understand how the DVD plays perfectly if something is going bad in the set. Thanks, Bill Harrington

Sound like you may have bad connection at or in the tuner section. U could try soldering around the board at the tuner area and if U should deside to try with in the tuner a fine soldering tip is require and solder all the grounds in and out ( out, the main pc board)

My Toshiba Regza can run for about an hour before the sound goes on it..it gets very loud and all it does is make distorted loud noises.

Check the speaker/s. If found OK; check and replace the damaged component/s at its audio output section circuit board. If needy, replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. Surf the site with patience.

In what way is the screen broken? cracked, distorted picture, no picture but has sound?

If it is cracked. Replacement of screen is expensive. Cheaper to buy a new TV.
If Distorted. Parts linked to the screen can be the culprit. Most common part to fail is the T-con board. Main board may not be sending signal to the T-con board.
If its no picture but has sound. Back lighting has failed which could be several things that can cause that.

without any other details besides "broken" it will be hard for someone to help with diagnosing your problem. We need symptoms like. has sound but no picture. Picture has horizontal or vertical lines. part or half of the screen is black, black borders don't count. Hope the info here has, in some way, helped bring you closer to what to do with your TV.

When you put in a game the sounded is distorted

If the sound problem is only on one game then its a problem with the game. If its happening on all games then try the system on another TV, if the sound problem stops then its a problem with the original tv, if it still crackles then its a problem with the main board inside of the ps3.
