Why is there a 3 inch black bar at the top of my screen and why is the picture pushed down those 3 inches?

This happens with all sources and even with the tv menu.

    Yes, the model number is correct.

    If I recall this model has somewhere in the menu a vertical adjustment for up down centering or left right for that matter, some cable boxes also have that option in their menu-consult the owner manual and look carefully for this to see if it is there or not.

    Well, that is part of the problem. I can't see the whole menu. It is down below the bottom of the screen. Like I said the entire picture and menu has dropped about 3 inches so I can't see the bottom of the picture or menu. Once in a while when I first turn on the tv the picture is perfect for about 5 seconds, then it drops down 3 inches and stays there. This also happens no matter what I have the pic size adjusted to. It's not the cable box either as it does this with all sources including the built in DVD player.

    At this point I suggest contacting Toshiba to see if this issue is known in their data base and do not take "take it to shop for authorized repair" answer--ask to speak to a tech and not a desk jockey.

SOURCE: white horizontal lines at top of picture

Yes, definitely worth fixing. The problem lies in the vertical deflection voltage-doubler circuit. The usual fault is a single capacitor of 100uF/35V that has failed. It is normally connected to a rectifier diode right at the vertical IC. Replacing the capacitor (no more than USD4.00 in price) usually gets it working perfectly again. If you are finicky around technical work, then a reputable local repair shop in your locality should do it quickly for you and charge only labour.

My Toshiba required replacement of two of the vertical filters/capacitors. Doesn't take long and the parts are inexpensive, but requires a repairman.

When I play dvds or watch videos on youtube the screen has a black border on both sides reducing the size of the screen

If you hit full screen on the youtube video and its not full screen, then it sounds like your monitor resolution is to low.

Rt click on a place on your screen and pick screen resolution, then pick resolution and increase it.

The first number is width, so say it's on 800x600 then go 1024x768

My roll bars (back seat head rests) are stuck in the UP position and I can't close the top while they are up. How do I get them down mechanically, the guide shows plenty of info for the top but nothing...

just push the roll bar button in the up position like you raising the roll bar. hold it for about ten seconds or til you hear a click sound. basically your just going to reengage the mechanism again since the roll bar got deployed while driving. If thats not the case then you might have a separate problem but I would start there.

A black line running verticall down the middle of

There is no invertor board on a plasma tv. The fault is the X address buffer board. This is located on the bottom of the screen and runs horizontally the whole width of the screen. If you remove the heatsink plate that covers the x address boards and you need to look at the screen ribbon at the same position as where the bar is (in the middle).Vary gently lift the Xbuffer ribbon lock and gently take out the ribbon.Clean the contacts very carefully with a fibre pen or an electrical cleaning fluid.Insert ribbon back and heatsink and check.Here is a picture of the board and ribbon
03d317b.jpg

a 1 inch bar is associates with 1 ribbon fault. So if the bar was 3 inches in from the left of the screen, the faulty ribbon will be 3 inches in from the right working from behind the TV. If cleaning dont cure the fault, then the Buffer IC will be blown and order a new centre buffer board (you can buy off Ebay)

LCD TV

I had a problem with a Samsung 46 inch LCD and it had audio and dim light but no picture and found out that the logic board toward the top (inside tv) was bad and was no longer available and the only way to fix it was to get the entire display panel (the logic board came with it) It was not costwise to repair. Hope this helps.
