This is a known issue with this TV. The following might resolve it:
Check Mute and Volume:
Ensure that the TV is not muted and that the volume is set appropriately. Sometimes accidental button presses can lead to muted sound or low volume.
Inspect External Speakers:
If you're using external speakers, verify their connections. Loose cables or faulty speakers can cause sound issues.
Test Different Inputs:
Connect a non-HDMI device (such as a DVD player) to the TV. Observe if the sound distortion occurs. If it doesn't, the problem might be related to the HDMI signal from your Virgin box.
HDMI Troubleshooting:
If the issue persists with the DVD player over HDMI, consider the following:
HDMI Cable: Check the HDMI cable for damage or loose connections.
Virgin Signal: Contact Virgin to inspect the signal/lines and replace the box if necessary.
Mainboard Replacement (if needed):
If the sound distortion persists, it could be due to a faulty sound processor chip on the TV's mainboard. In this case, consider replacing the mainboard.

Locate the Battery Cover: Look for the battery cover on the back of the remote control. It is usually a small compartment that can be easily opened.

Remove Old Batteries: Take out the old batteries from the battery compartment. Pay attention to the orientation of the batteries, so you know how to insert the new ones correctly.
Check Battery Polarity: Take note of the positive (+) and negative (-) signs inside the battery compartment. Make sure to insert the new batteries with the correct polarity to match these markings.
Insert New Batteries: Place the new batteries into the battery compartment, ensuring they are properly aligned with the correct polarity. Press them down gently to make sure they are secure.
Replace Battery Cover: After inserting the new batteries, close the battery compartment cover securely. If it has a latch or screw, make sure it is fastened properly.
Test the Remote: Point the remote at the device it controls (such as a Toshiba TV) and test whether it responds to your commands. If the remote is working correctly, you have successfully replaced the batteries.
Dispose of Old Batteries: If the old batteries are no longer usable, make sure to dispose of them properly. Many communities have designated recycling locations for batteries.

They are purely a numerical identifier of when it was made, year, day, number on the shift, whether it Joe or Billy who did final inspection.

The information provided suggests that there might be an issue with the main board of the electronic device. However, it's important to consider a few factors before deciding to replace the main board:
Check for Error Codes or Diagnostic Signals: Some devices have error codes or diagnostic signals that can provide more specific information about the issue. Check the device's manual or documentation for any error codes or signals associated with the flashing LED or other symptoms.
Perform a Hard Reset: Before replacing any components, try performing a hard reset on the device. This involves turning off the power, unplugging the device, and waiting for a few minutes before plugging it back in and turning it on. Sometimes, this can resolve temporary glitches.
Consult Manufacturer Support: Contact the manufacturer's customer support or refer to the product's support resources. They may be able to provide troubleshooting steps specific to your device and guide you on whether a main board replacement is necessary.
Professional Inspection: If you are not familiar with electronic repairs, consider consulting a professional technician. They can inspect the device, run diagnostics, and provide a more accurate assessment of the issue.
Check Warranty: If the device is still under warranty, replacing components yourself may void the warranty. Check the warranty terms and conditions before attempting any repairs.
Consider Other Factors: The issue might not solely be with the main board. Power supply issues, faulty connectors, or other components could contribute to the problem. A thorough inspection can help identify the root cause.
If, after considering these factors, you still believe that the main board is the likely culprit and you are comfortable with the replacement process, you can proceed with replacing it. However, exercising caution and exploring all available troubleshooting options is advisable before making any decisions.

The directions for programming a television remote like the CT-90121 will be in the manual for the TV that it came with. One such model is the Toshiba 36HFX72. The manual for this TV is available at ManualsLib here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/172528/Toshiba-32hfx72.html#product-36HFX72 . The directions for using the remote starts on page 14, https://www.manualslib.com/manual/172528/Toshiba-32hfx72.html?page=14#manual . The remote control programming directions start on page 17. The device codes start on page 19.
Please note: universal remote code lists are usually limited to devices that were programmed 6 months or more before the universal remote was programmed. Since the 36HFX72's manual has a copyright date of 2002, the CT-90121 may not control devices built in late 2002 or later. I hope this helps.

You seem to be experiencing power issues with your Toshiba XV555D TV, where it powers on for a few minutes and then turns off. Such behavior can occur for a variety of reasons. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try: Power sources and cables: Ensure that the power source is stable and that the power cord is properly located between the TV and the outlet. Sometimes an unstable power source can turn off the TV. Power Cycling: Unplug the TV, wait a minute or two, then plug it back in. Sometimes this can reset some internal features. Remote control and buttons: Make sure that any buttons on the remote control or the TV itself are not pressed or inadvertently, as this can turn the TV off unexpectedly External Devices: If you have an external device (such as a game console, DVD player, etc.) connected to the TV, try disconnecting it and see if the problem persists . . . . Sometimes a faulty outboard can cause electrical issues. Factory reset: If possible, do a factory reset on the TV. This will restore all settings to default values and may help fix software issues. Check for software updates: If your TV allows, check for firmware/software updates. Sometimes updates can fix bugs and improve TV performance. Ventilation: Make sure the TV vents are clear and unobstructed. If it gets too hot, it can turn off the TV as a safety precaution. Hardware Problem: If none of the above steps solve the problem, there may be a hardware problem. This can range from a faulty capacitor on the power supply board to other factors. In this case, you may need to consult with a technician to have the TV diagnosed and repaired.
