Is the stand by voltage steady? It makes sence to use a meter than to replace all the caps in the psu.

Hi-RS007,

Note still no panel details - whistling windwise - Chris

Ohm Supplies:
No reply, no nothing.


Perhaps rs007 has gone on holiday or possibly a member of the public looking for a "cheap" repair.

I think this is when someone who doesnt normally look at tv's posts on the forum and lets other engineers look for a solution so they don't have to pay an engineer.

With so many engineers struggling to make a living but money being so tight, you can't blame someone for asking. I hope I'm wrong and they're sunning it up on a beach.

Maybe proof of qualifications should be required before you can join the forum? But very difficult to confirm with today's data protection. Unqualified people don't realise how dangerous TV's are, and LCD are considered to be a safe low voltage device!! But they don't know that the bite from a fully charged main smoothing block could kill someone with a dodgy ticker, even if the TV has been off for a few days. I am sure most of us have been rushing and forgotten to check at some time! The memory of the smell of burning skin and flesh with an aching arm returns.

Back to the Toshiba fault, I usually find it's a problem with the main SSB board or inverter FET's with Toshibas, but I guess it depends on the chassis.

Hi Keith,

Jeez - what sort of qualification ? Must admit mine are a bit crumbly and deal with EY51 problems in Mullard oil filled projection triplers.

Good thought though, as we could perhaps be held liable for advice given in good faith - Guess Quuq site will advise - Chris.
