My 100HZ Toshiba has recently started squealing occasionally much like the old 50Hz tellies used to. That really annoying 15-16khz noise. It doesn't do it all the time. Is this a sign of impending death? It's not that old :( Or is something just not as surpressed as it should be, and I should live with it?


Thanks
 
Before I had my sony, I had an LG what done that.

Does the screen flicker before the sound? I think it is the sign of a soon death, sorry, yes.

Rubbish :rolleyes: you can't generalise symptoms like that.
 
The screen doesn't flicker, no. It doesnt do it often, just ocasionally

What's the model no?
Is it under warranty?
 
If there's no effect on the picture it could be just a component in the Line Output stage "singing", i.e. vibrating with the frequency of the line output oscillator. It's usually easy to cure with a bit of glue or by redressing the component, but the main problem is sometimes that the fault will stop if you move the set.
