Toshiba TV, blinking timer light

I don't know if anyone can help but my tv seemed to go on standby(dont know if my 3 yr old touched anything on the remote) and the green light under the power(red) started flashing constantly.

I dont seem to be able to do anything with it, I've tried unplugging and no difference when I put it back on.

would love some advice!

If you tryed to leave it

If you tryed to leave it unplugged for 12 to 24 hours, and you get the same results, then theres a problem in the regulator circuit, and/or the sweep power supply. Sorry, but in this set there is no quick fix. These sets are all solid state and all the parts are soldered into a printed circuit board so there are no user replaceable parts in this set. Best thing for you to do if unplugging it over a time did not help, is to call in an Authorized Toshiba repair person or service center. Let us know how you made out. Good Luck

Inherited a Mitsubishi

Inherited a Mitsubishi CS2002R (circa 1992) 19" color TV. Picture is good, but sound barely audible. I suspect there is a lot of dust inside the cabinet; could this be the cause of poor sound? I read there was a huge recall on Mitsubishi TVs due to fire hazard around 1998-2000, but don't know if this model was one of the culprits.

Is this set worth trying to repair? Thanks for any advice or tips.

Artemis, No, I dont see any

Artemis, No, I dont see any fire hazard recall notices on this model. I do see however that this model was good for having a bad speaker, a bad sound output IC or a coupling capacitor to cause a low sound problem.. Its highly unlikly that the dust will solve your problem. As a matter of fact I have seen in the past where consumers would clean out the sets and cause problems to arise. let us know if you solved this problem, and Good Luck
