   I have the same model, same problem. Less than 3 years old. The exact same problem all over the internet about Samsung, Sony, Mitsubishi DLP tv's. It seems to be a common problem with DLP chip technology. I contacted Toshiba, huh, out of warranty? Out of luck they say. Customer service really said that, " good luck with your problem. Samsung is taking care of customers, free of charge. I filed a complaint with the BBB. I will update my progress.

   That's weird because Samsung is famous for ignoring issues like this.
   huh.
   Same problem with mine.
   I"ve seen elsewhere a diagnosis of "Bad DMM chip in light engine" or something close to that.

   I am having same issue. Read somewhere its the light engine failing. Cost = bout $600. Looked all over toshiba website but found nothing on problem. Samsung is replacing for customers due to class action lawsuit. Maybe Toshiba is keeping quite.
