A friend of mine has the TC-P50C2 and the color is acting all funny now. Its like a pink and green color and I will attach a photo so u can see my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

A tough one. I'd be inclined to get it into service mode and access aging and run through the test patterns. these do tend to blow SS boards, and I'm kinda thinking it's a sustain board not right but still very undecided

Worth checking the LVDS cable at both ends--Sometimes the sockets/plugs on it develop poor connections....
I had a 50PZ80 that had a pink cast to the picture--That was it.....

How do I get it into service mode do you know? And from the service mode will it tell you if there is a board is failing?

How do I go about checking if this part is bad?

Well--You treat each end to some switch-cleaner and re-fit!

I suspect the Zsus board because of the pink tint being early stage of Mal Discharge
2nd possibility is the control board
