This is a 46 inch regza and it has the timer/rec light flashing and will not come on. Had this problem a couple of weeks ago and thought it might have been a surge but i have it plugged into surge protected plug-in. what can I do to make the television come on?

These blinks (flashes) are fault indication. By the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can vet an idea about the faulty circuit stage inside the TV. Count the blinks occur at one time switch ON, carefully. Do it once again, and make sure about the number of blinks. If the flashes are continious, non-stop, the main system control IC should be suspected. If you wish to get more details, check the site linked here. It has blinking codes detail to many brand TVs.

SOURCE: The TV turns itself off after 14 minutes

Sounds like maybe you have a sleep timer activated?  There should be an option to reset the tv back to factory reset, this might help you.

SOURCE: Hi. I have a 42"

The best solution to this problem is to call Toshiba directly and ask for assistance. Any TV repair company/shop will probably charge you an automatic fee to assess the problem, and then tell you it's a very expensive fix. With just the model and serial number of your TV, an easy 5 minutes will get you the answer you are looking for.

Vertical line on my 46" toshiba lcd tv

The only logical solution for the problems people are having for the toshiba regza's tv's is to get into a class action law suite..., they contiue to sell tv's with defective parts and refuse to help the customer that spent large cash to find out they last if your lucky 2.5 years, they are junk and anyone with one will soon find out./.......
