T o s h i b a T V Re pair tips
Edited from : http://www.e-repair.co.uk/tips.htm

1 . Toshiba TV Model: 28W23B (11AK37 Chassis)

Procedure to enter the service mode
Press the menu button then 4,7,2,5

2 . Toshiba TV Model : 28W23B (11AK37 Chassis)

Picture displaced vertically, picture too high or low
This problem was cured by entering the service mode (menu then 4,7,2,5), then
pressing the green fastext button to access geometry settings, selecting VP1
(vertical position) and adjusting as necessary.

3. Toshiba TV Model: CF3060K

Problems with screen size
Look out for 2 x 2.2uF electrolytics (sometimes red in color).

4. Toshiba TV Model: 175T9B

Line tearing and incorrect field lock when cold
47uF electrolytic AGC decoupling capacitor inside tuner/if unit.

5. Toshiba TV Model: 2505DB

Stretched frame or frame collapse
Replace modification diode 570 on copper side.

6. Toshiba TV Model: 198X6M

Horizontal output continues to short
Check capacitors C403 and C408 (both 50v) these two caps tend to change
capacitance.

7. Toshiba TV Model: 32ZD09G (C00S Chassis)

Procedure to enter the service mode
Press the mute key on the handset once, then press the mute key for a second time
but hold it down while also pressing the menu button on the set.

8. Toshiba TV Model: 2573

Stuck in standby.
Replaced ZP82 (o/c) And tuner (internal short).

9. Toshiba TV Model: 28WD98B

Stuck in standby, 16 volt line low at approx 8 volts
Replaced C872 (220uF, 50v), original had gone low in value

10. Toshiba TV Model: 2577B

White horizontal line (Frame collapse)
Dry joint on TA8427K, Frame IC.

11. Toshiba TV Model: 215R8N

Severe vertical distortion- `egghead` symptoms
Replaced c317 in vertical cct (2.2uf, 50v) substituted 4.7uF. Must be 105ºtype!!

12. Toshiba TV Model: 219T9B

Intermittent field collapse after a few hours
Replace field output chip IC303 (AN5515).

13. Toshiba TV Model: 145R7B

Dead
D808 s/c due to high HT caused by faulty switch mode ic (STR50020).

14. Toshiba TV Model: 210T6BZ

Distorted sound / banging
Voltage at C832 over 25V! Replace Q809, C866, C869, C864 and resolder dry
joints in PSU.

15. Toshiba TV Model: 2550TB

Set stuck in standby at switch on
Field output ic TA8427K faulty, also change 220uf cap.

16. Toshiba TV Model: 2857DB

Int. frame collapse
Dry joints on regulator Q420, not too easy to find as it is not close to power supply
or frame stage, it is the supply to the frame generetor IC.

17. Toshiba TV Model: CF2666R (TAC9102 Chassis)

Screen is too tall, with vary faint retrace lines showing
Found that Capacitor C305 (50V, 2.2uF) was dry, C342 (50V, 1uF) was also dry
too. Capacitors are near vertical IC 301.

18. Toshiba TV Model: 2863DB (C6SR Chassis)

To remove protection to assist fault finding
Remove D471. It's a thyristor and is located next to the chopper transformer
secondary side.

19. Toshiba TV Model: AVM 2505 (G3V25050 Chassis)

Will not come out of standby, no picture
If at power on voltage on pin 37 of the micro drops low then reverts to 5v suspect
memory chip ICA07 (Toshiba 23319016).

20. Toshiba TV Model: 3798DG (C8SS Chassis)

E/W Pincushion distortion
Replace D461 damper diode (ERC20-06).

21. Toshiba TV Model: 28W8DB

No frame drive however sound and line drive is present
E/W correction chip TA1240 (at front of line/frame chassis) was defective,
replacing the IC cured the fault.

22. Toshiba TV Model: 217D98

Severe field distortion
Check capacitor C317 (2.2uF, 50V) in linearity feedback circuit.

23. Toshiba TV Model: 2857DB (C5SS Chassis)

Blue screen, no sound (ok on scart) or snow on screen, no sound, no service mode
and menu text fluctuates, channels can not be tuned
The tuner was faulty.
