Red light blinks and black screen.

The blinking red light is a standby indicator. Make sure your remote is set to "tv" and not "cable" or "auxiliary".

TV turns off and power light blinks unpluged andd still does it.

Likely to be the STK convergence chips causing a protection circuit to switch the TV off. Have you got any onscreen convergence problems (i.e, colour fringes)?

My Toshiba Rear projection TV Has A blinking power light

The power supply is in protect mode. There is most likely a short on one of the boards, or the high voltage generator, or a scan amplifier, or the power supply itself has a failure. Without troubleshooting the set it is impossible to know.

Replace the convergence amps and check the return resistors in path to the yoke from that circuit.

Toshiba 42h81

STK392-110 's = replace with Toshiba or Sanyo quality only..
What was the location & value of the resistor ?
An IC, if shorted internally,can prevent the tv from powering up..
Re-check soldered in 5 amp micro fuses F850,851,852,etc

Blinking red power indicator light

Pushing it back in place went it went out tells me that the problem is probably a poor solder connection. That arcing probably took out one of the fuses, but a fuse is NEVER the cause merely a symptom. I would begin by examining the black wire that feeds the +16v to the convergence IC's on the main board. The convergence circuit is the most thermal circuit in that unit. Next check for any jumpers and other component joints that appear to be ring cracked. Even the convergence amps themselves. Then check for open fuses after you've made a good inspection. Check for fuses: F850 & F851 5amp, F470 2amp, and F890 3.15amp and one of these are likely open. But if you replace them without correcting the problem that cause them to open it will simply happen again.. Good Luck Bill

This appears to be a duplicate post - - and I'm not sure which one you'll check for an answer so here goes: Pushing it back in place went it went out tells me that the problem is probably a poor solder connection.

Toshiba 42H81 Blinking on and off light

Very common problems with this TV set. Toshiba even has a technical bulliten on this and several other models of tV set. The negitve terminal of C809 and C810 need to be soldered, as there are no eyeletes in the printed circuit board. This problem could also take out the fuse, F860. Replace if necassary. Good Luck

TV auto shut off-power indicator light blinking-won't turn back on

You could have gotten an electrical surge that put your set into a shutdown condition and unplugging the set and letting the Microprocessor reset will fix this problem if it dosent blow out the main power regulator as you still or might I say have a regulator IC problem. IF THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS AGAIN MORE THEN A FEW TIMES WITHIN A SMALL TIME FRAME I WOULD HAVE THE SET LOOKED AT BEFORE THE REGULAOR BLOWS SOMETHING OUT!!!!
