How did you remove them?

How did you remove them?

Disassemble screen and remove frame around edge of panel, remove the tabs from the offending side, like peeling off a bandaid or tape. It is irreversible so do your own research, seems like your right side is bad. Lots of threads in here on it. Vizio/Sharp screens.

Are these the tabs i should remove? Do i just peel them off and the affected side and then try out the display? Should I disconnect anything else?

In your pic I see all the tabs except the affected one. Visually inspect it to see if it's burnt or run the set and put your finger on it. If it's getting super hot as compared to the rest then yes, remove all tabs on that side.

I had the same symptoms as the OP on a LC-70LE650U. Dark spot towards the middle of the screen and a smeary, slow responding picture on the left side. I removed the left side driver boards and the picture was restored.

Just trying to add to the knowledge base.
