A frustrating follow up.... Well, a few weeks back as you know I heard back the the flyback transformer needed to be replaced. I talked to the technician working on my tv and he said they have replaced hundreds of these through the years on various tv sets.

He said it would cost about $280 plus tax including labor and would take a few weeks to get the parts ordered.

Now this is where I get pi$$ed. Got home tonight and there was a message from the same guy that Toshiba says the parts are not available anymore. He wants to know if I want it back or have them dispose of the tv.

This tv was purchased brand new from American Electronics and Furniture about 3-4 yrs ago. We payed about $1500 after talking the salesman down. It is a nice 32" flat screen tube HDTV ready tv that had a great picture when hooked to my OTA HD tuner.

Now they say it is not available to be fixed, what the heck. Your telling me parts are only kept for 4 years after manufactured date?
