Hitachi LE55A6R9 bad panel?

[Malachi]

This tv was made in February 2015, I can't believe it's gone out already.
I don't know if this is a t-con problem, mainboard or panel problem.
The last 3 pictures in order are: the first with both ribbons connected to the t-con, then only one side, then the other.

Panel IMO, looks like a cheap pile of shite anyway mate.

I know. So you don't think there is anyway it's a t-con board? They are only $8.
You can't see it in the pictures but when both sides of the t-con is connected or only the right side, you can see part of the menu jumping around on screen.
Either no signal detected or the osd.

Personally no seen too many panels fail like this looks to be a Sammy Lcd ?

Ordered a t-con. For $7.88 I'll know for sure.

The used confirmed tcon came in today. I'd didn't solve the problem but now it's different than it was.

That's with both sides of the tcon hooked up. The right side bounces.

This is with just the left side hooked up. The display alternates its position around the left side of the screen.

Still think it's a bad panel?

Bad panel.
BTW, do not run the new T-CON too long, the bad panel may damage your new T-CON board.

I thanks bud. The tcon was $8. 20% restocking fee and I have to pay return shipping. No point in saving it.
Would you think it's ok to sell the psu and mainboard?
Or do you think mainboard could also be the problem?
