You are worrying needlessly. Just buy a head cleaner and run it through. It's just like the old VCRs. The heads get an accumulation on them in time, and it is certainly cheaper and easier to clean them than it is to replace the unit. Please rate this answer.

You will have to consult the manual for your cable box remote. This will have the codes for your tv. It will also show the procedure for setting up the remote to take the codes. Thanks for using fixya. Hope this helps.

is it rolling vertically or horizontally?

send me a link or an image

It sounds like a text box that isn't receiving any text. If it covers almost the entire screen, then you might have accidentally got the settings into DEMO mode. It could also be a box for closed captioning, but that usually covers just the lower part of the screen. Either way, the solution is to go into the setup menu and restore facotry presets.

Check in the menu options and switch one of the settings from TV to Cable. Sorry I can't remember exactly what it's called but if you find something with TV / Cable and switch it to Cable - you should be able to go over channel 13.

You usually need a higher Wattage Inverter. Also you need excellent power connections.

first of all have a nice day..the problem of your tv is a COLD SOLDER meaning there's only loss solder causing by overheated component such as resistor, tranformer etc. check and look closely to all of the suspected terminals, someting looks burning, try to solder all the susupected terminal using soldering iron and solder. chek also components it maybe cracked resisitor or diodes

G'Day!

Unfortunately, what you're describing is a repair issue. You won't be able to address the problem with troubleshooting. There is a part inside the TV that needs to be replaced. If you're under warranty, this will cost you nothing. If you're not under warranty the cost will likely be a minimum of $200 parts and labor. However, be warned that the cost could be considerably higher.

The only way to change the input on a TV without the remote is if there is a button on the panel for that purpose. Unfortunately, most TVs don't have one so you would have to purchase a replacement remote from the manufacturer. If you want to try a universal remote first, be sure to keep the packaging (don't destroy it when you open it) and keep the receipt handy. That way if the remote doesn't work, you can return it to the store. If a universal remote fails you, call Fox International at 800-321-6993. They are Toshiba's part distributor. Have the model number ready when you make the call.

First thing to check: could it be aspect ratio - source material is old standard 4x3 format, TV is widescreen 16x9, so it only fills center? If so, the images will look properly proportioned - circles round (not ellipses), people neither unduly fat nor skinny.
Second: if the shapes are wrong, it could be settings on source device (check DVD menu, cable/satellite set-up) and/or TV (choices like letterbox, pan and scan, stretch to fill screen, etc.)
Third: if CRT TV, could be defect in horizontal sweep circuitry, requiring repair shop; decide whether the cost is worth it, vs new TV.

Good luck!

Hello
I have found Gemini's list of codes for a different model remote. I could not find your model but the models I found are identical to each other with their codes, so trying these should be worth a shot. Here are toshiba's codes:

TOSHIBA 140,200,210,220,440

Good Luck

Replaced C407 100uf/35V Vertical section.

I would not recommend changing tube usually 10,000 volts on a crt so very dangerous better to buy a new tv typically around the same in price

use your remote . manually fine tune your tv.
