20 Most Recent Toshiba 50A60 50" Rear Projection Television Questions & Answers

http://www.manualslib.com/t/toshiba+50a60.html

There is no bulb in that model TV. There are 3 crt type tubes. You'll have to have a TV shop determine the cause. It could be many things like no high voltage present, cathode voltage missing. If the tubes are finished, the cost to replace them is quite high. It is a complicated repair since the tubes have to be properly aimed and converged. The repair cost in this worst case scenario would be greater than buying a flat screen TV with the same screen size.

Is there a cable or Satellite box hooked up for signal?How and where is signal connected to the TV?

There is no apreciable radiation from these tubed projectors unless the EHT supply exceed 33KV which is highly unlikely.
Replacing the screen could be quite costly though. Look up a Toshiba Repair agent for a price and maybe ebay as well.
Hope that helps.

Yes I Had The Same problem , if your handy with fixing things this will
work.
Step 1- unplug the TV from wall socket
Step 2- disconnect all devices like VCR's DVD Players from the TV
Step 3- remove the speaker covers from the TV
Step 4 - There are 14 screws on front cover, remove these with a
Philips driver, set cover aside
clean with soft brush and wash with water
Step 5- Gently raise the cover straight up to release it from its supports
Once cleared from supports , remove the cover.

Tips- Make sure you don't scratch any of the screens or CRTs

You can clean the mirror with any glass cleaner, make sure to wipe it
clean , water and vinegar does a good job to eliminate streaks.

Use a soft duster to clean the dust from the circut boards
Tip - Remember take it easy when cleaning

When your finished cleaning, just reverse the steps

It Worked for Me

yes it would be worth the trouble and expenses. Get it repaired.

Your best bet, and the cheapist, is to go on craigs list, an look for the same size tv, doesnt matter what brand, get one that doesnt work, probabily can find one free, or verry cheep, then just swop out the screen

Hi, thank you for visit fix ya.
Common problems on this tv ( cause no power):
1.- Loose connection between connectors and cool solder around fly back. ( re solder all).
2.- IC vertical output and capacitor in same section ( 100uf, 220uf,3300 uf and 2.2uf ), replace all.
3.- STKs ICs convergence , need be replace ( check any resistor around STKs, for burn or brown color).
----- Try to do step by step; you will repair your tv.
I will be here for any future question.
Thank you

You will need to post tv brand and model number

You will need to trouble shoot the various power supplies most likely something minor in either the stand by or start up circuits. I recommend that you get a service manual at the following link as they will email it to you and also help you diagnose it with free tech support. Here is the link.

Called Tv tech. He said it was the power supply connectivity. common problem in rear projection Tv's. Cost to replace was anywhere between $300.00 and $400.00 dollars. Time for a new tv :-(

It's pretty simple repair.  Pull bezel, unscrew braces around edges and swap screen out.  Where did you find the lenticular at?  I have the same TV and can't find the part online.

 

Thanks

yes its on your remote. its the c.capt button. or go under menu/enter and pan to the left untill it comes up. and turn it off by scrolling through the caption buttons

this tv does not have 2 tuners. So you will be unable to get 2 different channels on one screen. I have the same tv. The PIP is only good for watching a dvd/video and tv swapping only.

Your convergence ICs need to be replaced. Its an easy and cheap repair if you can solder. Parts will cost about 20.00 for both ICs

I don't have a particular source, but if you fail to find one you may try using a similar screen fopr a different model if you're a bit handy. Depending on how the screen is fastened, you might even be able to fit a regular canvas (roller curtain type or similar, user with video projectors)

If it has to ba some kind of specific frame on it you miahgt have to "hack" it, and it might not be that pretty. If it's just a screen fastened inside a frame, kind of like the glass in a picture frame you can get one in the same size, or a bit bigger and cut it down to size yourself.
