Top 20 Toshiba 36A50 36" TV Questions & Answers

It is the fault with some components related with its horizontal scan output section circuit. Just check the circuit part; and check the components I've marked in red here by its horizontal scan output circuit. Beware; you're going to touch the most dangerous part of its circuit. Keep it in mind always. If you wish to see the circuit diagram in full; visit http://schematicscom.blogspot.com/

Try website like Remotes.com to buy the tv original remote to used.U will used the tv original remote to turn to channel 3 with ease.After u have the tv original remote push the menu button go into Closed Captioning functions turn off like TEXT 1,2,3...The big black box will not appear on the screen again.Tv used it manually control buttons up and down channels trying to get to channel 3.U will never get it to tv channel 3 because tv channel 3 was not save on it memory list of on the tv turn manually channels buttons programming memory.Tv have a manual button said MEMU button on it tv front bazel frame?Yes.Might could used the Menu button on the tv frame to get in to turn off TEXT 1,2,3...to stop the big black box to show up on the tv screen again.

hi,
Hi check is there is any dry soldering in the vertical scanning stage or in the power supply stage. of your tv. If the soldering of the vertical ic is dry( improper spldering contact coused by years of use) then this can happen.Thats why it disappears some time when there is a proper contact comes. You can confirm is it dry soldering by shaking the tv while its working. If the line comes and go off then there is dry soldering in the vertical scanning section. To rectify this you have to oppen your tv And have to resolder the points in the vertical section. Have added the picture, how a dry soldering point looks.




ok

Maybe the problem of your television is loose PCB connection, ethier it is cold solder.It is need to resolder first then if did not work.It is time to replace a leak capacitor at vertical section of the crt board.

Yes...this TV may be repaired. The line you describe is in the center and is horizontal across the TV. You will need to resolder the vertical IC pins. This vertical IC is mounted on a large heatsink. Under the board you will see there are 5 or 7 pins that will have rings around them. Resolder these. And you should replace two or three capacitors that are next to this IC. A bad cap will overheat an IC and separate the solder grounds. If you can find my expertise page on this website, you will see the repair in more detail. Thanks for asking and show a few hands of support.

The only common problem would be on the Toshiba Remote. Make sure you have the switch on the remote set to "TV' and not Audio, or Video. Beyond that, if you have a digital camera or a cell phone with a camera with a viewing display, point the remote at the camera and push any button. If it is sending IR, you will see the flashing from the remote on your camera/phone display.That will just confirm the remote is sending signals. The only other possibility is that your IR receiver on the TV is bad, This happens, but it's not very common. Hope this helps

Sure I can. If you can just tell me what the problem is, I will be glad to help you :)

tv turns its self off i unplug it plug it back in it will flash on not showing picture it u can her it flash on and right back of some times it will not flash in back of tv and i can hit power it will flash and go off every now and then it will come on show picture after being unplugged and plugged back but then shuts off

According to timewarnercable.com, the codes for a toshiba tv are 074, 168, or 170. If none of these codes work, I suggest you try the code search function. To do this, follow the steps listed below. 1. Turn on the tv 2. Press "select" and "tv" together until the LED blinks twice. 3. Using the keypad on the remote, type in the digits 9-9-1. This will open the "code library." The LED should blink twice. 4. Press "power." 5. Press "channel up" key repeatedly until the tv switches off. 6. When the tv turns off, press "tv" on the remote to lock in the code. Your remote should now be programed to your tv. I hope this helps, and good luck! Sincerely, Der Strom

The circuit boards need to be re soldered sounds like dry solder joint which breaks connection not a big job and shouldn't take to long.

This is an easy repair if you've ever soldered and would not be too costly for a repair shop to do it for you. The problem is a bad Vertical Output IC (usually mounted on an aluminum heat sink with the part on it labeled LA78?? ) and 1 or 2 bad capacitors. Some times you can even fix the problem by re-soldering the contacts of the IC- To find the IC follow the 4 wires that come from the Yoke (which is a contained coil of wires slipped over the neck of the picture tube(s)) back to the board. 2 of the wires go to the horizontal o/p and 2 to the Vertical o/p the thinner gauge wires are for the vertical.

wash them

Go to the time warner website, they should have accessory section there page, and there you find codes.

On this particular model there is one capacitor from the video process IC (jungle IC) that supplies the Vertical pulse that shoul be changed.
