THE REMOTE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK FOR MY TOSHIBA 20AF43 TELEVISION. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERIES AND EVEN TRIED A NEW UNIVERSAL REMOTE WITHOUT ANY SUCCESS. IS THERE A REMOTE SENSOR IN THE TELEVISION THAT I CAN REPLACE? IF SO DO YOU KNOW THE PART NUMBER? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED Where can I get a new sensor for my TV?

I am NOT too keen with 'universal remotes' because often the CODES listed are not accurate so your item (in this case a TV) may never respond without the proper code entered...

Some remotes offer a FISH method where you manually "step" from one code to the next... no fun but SOMETIMES your TV will suddenly respond again!

Now the IR SENSORS are rather rugged and seldom 'burnout'... but the board it mounts on is another story.

Your Service Manual can be found at the link below but the print is so tiny I was unable to locate the board with your IR SENSOR quickly... time is a issue and the link is a start!

One BAD point is that I found no USED boards for your model on eBay... not good.

Dear Mr.yeye,
There seems to be a problem with the IR LED of your television. solder the connections if any of them is cut. Also there can be loose connections. its better to contact the retailer from whom you purchased this tv

How to switch from TV to DVD on a Toshiba Model 27A32 when you do not have the remote control for the TV

Without its remote control, you can't select its inputs. Even some universal remote controls won't allow you to select this option. If you wish to buy a genuine remote control, you have to contact the authorized service center. If you wish to buy a universal remote control, you should know about, which brand remote control have set-up codes to your TV brand, adn buy that one according to availability. If you wish to get more details about this, try the sites linked here. It has set-up code list, and set-up procedure to many popular brand universal remote controls. http://electro-medical.blogspot.com/

Turn on but remote doesn't work

I would try new batteries first. If that doesn't help then replace the remote with a universal unit that you can program to work with your TV.

No remote control response (toshiba 42h81)

Are you SURE the cables are right?? The cable for the remote sensor and the speakers are both 4 pin and can easily be swapped. The cable with the brown wire (speakers) will attach to the convergence/signal PCB on the far right edge, while the remote connector plugs into a connector closer to the center of this board.
