Convergence Issue- Toshiba 65H81

The only way to get this fix, is replacing the defectives convergence IC's.

There may be a button on the back of the set
to turn interan speaker on and off
if not then in the sound menu
check that out if that dont do it
get back to me

OK, the problem is one of the STK392-110 convergence amps has died. It is rare that both die at the same time, so either vertical or horizontal will go out, but not both. Also look for an open fusable resistor near said IC.

You need to get to the service menu--it's been 4 years so go to AVSforum.com to turn off the different guns and get the better pattern.
At your risk: To get into Service mode:
1. Turn your TV on. 2. For X81 or earlier series: Press MUTE on your remote and release. 2. For H80/H81/HX81 series: Press MUTE on your remote and release two times ("Mute" on-screen) 3. Press down MUTE on your remote again and hold. While holding, press the MENU button on your TV set's front panel. 4. Release both buttons. 5. An "S" should appear on your screen. Press MENU again on your TV. 6. Now you're in service mode. Channel Up/Dn - Scrolls through Parameters and Volume Up/Dn - Changes Parameter Value
To get into convergence mode:
Get into Service mode, then Hit '7' to bring up the convergence grid. Buttons 100, 0, and ENT control which gun you want to turn off (if you want to align the red to the green without seeing the blue gun and other variations). 2=up, 8=down, 4=left, 6=right, 3=change gun to converge, 5=converge that point. To exit convergence mode you press 7 once and your screen should look like it's imploding then return to normal and then you press 7 to get back into regular service mode.
I have more info found on the board. -Ken

Good Day, klynn69;
Even though you did not ask a question, I assume you want to know what's wrong. It sounds like the TV has experienced a Convergence Circuit Failure. If you are really handy replace Conv output Amp IC's AND make sure all pico fuses are ok, all jumpers have secure connections OR call for service to An Authorized Service Center and have them come out and give an estimate B4 repair. AVG cost $550.00. Good Luck, big IRISH.

Somewhere along the line you may have missed a cable connection. Recheck to be sure that all of the wires are reconnected. Also, check the +5V line. In the area of the convergence Ics there should be a number of pico fuses. One of those may have opened up.
Keep us posted.

possible.. convergence ic can cause this problem if they become shorted

Yes you can get the service manual at the following link for 10.99 and they will contact you to see if you would like the manual emailed to you. Here is the link.

Does the blue and red crosses move at all ... eather vertically or horizontally. if they move at all then it may not be the chips.. could be a resistor. if the crosses dont move then it probally the ic. these chips run about 7 to 45 dollars apeace depending on type. at our shop we charge around 125 to put in.

DA, convergence circuit has failed, the IC`s and possibly a couple of support resistors need to be replaced, your right about it being a good set, 6 years is about average for convergence IC`s, call your local shops for a few estimates and get it fixed, it will run for a lot longer than 6 years, hope this is the advice your looking for, e-mail me if you have more questions, BMW Rider
