Question about Toshiba 32A43 32" TV

Volume go up to MAX, power button does not work

I have a Toshiba model 32A43, the other day, without any buttons being pushed, the volume suddenly went to maximum, the power button would not work, volume can not be turned down on the set or by remote, but the channels will change using the set's controls. After turning the power off at the power strip several times it finally seemed to reset. It worked fine for about a week and did it again. The buttons don't seem to have the same "feel" as when it was working properly. Can it be fixed? If so, about what should it cost to fix it? Should I toss it and get a new one?

    My volume does just the opposite! Automatically decreases to -0- and after a while will respond again for a short time. The controls freeze up the same way. Just a guess but could it be a inferred receiver problem within the TV?

I cab hear the sound when the program is on and then when the commercials comes on the audio is gone( vise/versa). one day i'll have audio on a certain chanell and the next it's gone. Checked with the cable co. nothing there and other tv's in the house are fine.

To all of you, change the tact switches (all of them) on the front panel control board and end of problem, very common problem, part number for these switches is 23344443, any or several will become "leaky" and give all sorts of symptoms, MANY times this is caused by using windex or similiar type cleaners, it gets into the switches and corrupts them, this will fix-ya, BMW Rider

I had the same issue. You can use the on screen volume buttons on screen to stop issue and don't use the physical buttons anymore. Watch out about a month after the volume problem started all physical buttons on my DXN7120 stopped working. There are a few reports of this online, I have not found a fix yet.

check the front button plate on the front of the tv very carefully.if it has been hit with something and either or any button is pushed in,it will not listen to other commands.make sure each button has a distinct click when pushed.a frozen button will cause other things not to work.it sounds to me like two buttons are making contact,and they are beside each other,so the button plate is crooked or warped.

Volume stuck maxed out
the intrenal switch that controls the volume up is shorted. you need to have it replaced. the short of the switch doesn't allow any other buttons on the set to work because the micro is recieving the volume up command. it's as if there is an invisible finger pushing the volume up button. the switch is a tachtile switch which is very inexpencive to repair about $50.00 total. if you want to do the repair yourself be aware there are voltages that remain in the set that can be harmful. 50% of the time the cause of these switches shorting is improper screen cleaning. some people spray glass cleaner directly on the screen, this is bad. the cleaner drips into the set and lands on the PC board where the buttons are housed. but I've seen the other 50% also which is hummidity, dust(not anyones fault this just happens), and simple switch failure. so becareful repairing it your self

Toshiba TV 35A44 Volume Issue
I had the same problem, you'll probably find that that particular button will push further into the set then the others, this is due to the a weakening of a cheesy metal guide which directs the projection off the back of the button into the corresponding microswitch. This metal guide will bend and will push against the switch.My solution, (and it ain't pretty) was to unplug the set, remove the button( I used a dremel cutting bit), locate the guide,a small metal plate with a hole in it. Bend the plate toward the front of the set then tape over the hole. I haven't had the problem since.You WILL have to use your remote for further functionality of the volume, However all of the buttons seem to be inherantly poorly designed and will weaken over time, AVOID USING THEM!
