Sharp Aquos LC-70LE857U problem with picture

[Jason616]

The problem I’m having with the tv is the picture is very dark and erratic.
I get lines at the bottom and the picture is very erratic.

Here are some pictures of what the tv is doing .

Wondering if anyone has seen this before or can help me troubleshoot the issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Not sure why my phone keeps flipping the pics sideways o can take more pics if needed and post from my computer

Looks like a bad panel. A common problem on the bigger Sharp panels. Try disconnecting two of the ribbon cable connectors for each side of the panel coming from the T-Con board since it has four and see if you can get a picture of the Sharp logo come up and a picture. Try disconnecting the other side also. If you see the same red mess on either side then you have a bad panel. Very common, especially the 3D models.

Maybe something liquid spilled inside the panel, almost sure it's a panel problem.
