sharp LC-60SQ15U vertical line in video

[nwcs]

TV has a blue line (not solid,) kind of like dashes on the right side almost dead center that fades out at the bottom. I have checked the tab bonds and found no damage. I have pushed on the individual tabs while the tv is on with no change to the blue line. If I remove tcon connector 2 I get the lines in picture three and if I remove tcon connector 1 I get picture four. I am thinking a bad tcon but would like to know if anyone can clarify this for me.

That's your typical SHARP LCD panel failure. Failure resides not in the tab connection, but in the chip on film embedded within the tabs

Kind of what I originally thought. Thanks again.
