Re: TV tuner replacement advice ?

The actual tuner will be a small metal box with the RF connector attached,
there should be a tag on it having appropiate part number, if in doubt
contact Toshiba America - Hawai'i division for assistance. Give tham
complete informatin regarding make, model, and chassis number (All available
from the back cover of the set). Mahalo!

Is there an AFC automatic frequency control switch? If so try switching it
off to see if the set changes channels faster.

Aloha ,

We purchased a 29inch Toshiba flat screen tv with a undisclosed
fault .

Occasionally when switching channels the audio track is lost and
replaced with static
Then , after about 20 seconds (always exactly the same) , the audio
track is picked up again .

Finding that we do not watch TV anymore it has been decided to sell
the TV . But We will not pass it on in this condition , it was
annoying to us as the buyer and we want to pass it on in better
condition than we found it .

We have read mention that the TV controller unit (the part inside the
case that has the aerial connection for the TV) is replaceable with
many other versions of the same .. this is encouraging .

But is the replacement of the Tuner really quite straight forward?

And does the TV tuning fault as described indeed refer to the function
of the TV tuner ?

cheers
