Hello,
I have a 27-inch Toshiba tv (Model 27A41 -
I was hoping someone could give me an idea what the problem might be, and if it's worth even bothering hauling this behemoth to be fixed. Or alternatively, how long this tv might last in its current state.
I get different bands of colors "bowing in" from the sides, where I seem to be loosing one of the RGB channels. There are no magnetic sources etc nearby. Here is a pic of what the tv looks like when it displays a blue only menus screen for my vcr.
In addition to the color problem, I sometimes also get some flicker accompanied by some crackling sound as if a contact is being connected/disconnected. Every once in a while (very rare) the tv flips back to being normal for a few seconds, but generally the messed up colors are permanent. The flickering/buzzing sound happens somewhat rarely too but not as rare as getting a normal pic.
Here are two video clips showing the tv in action:
Any ideas?
Thanks, Esmail
