I had an LA series by LG a few years back that had pretty much caught fire. By the time I got to the tv there was no picture. But when taking it apart I could imagine the picture may have looked similar to this had it still displayed an image.
The panel itself had smoke and soot but it all just cleaned off and i was lucky to have an LN series donor TV that I could change over all the layers perfectly.
its a backlight / diffuser issue. The LED(s) is that area likely got severely hot and darkened the diffuse film before they went out. The panel display elements appear to be still displaying image... if my eyes see the picture correctly. You likely need to replace the LEDs and the diffuser sheet.
I would say it is a defective lcd panel, it may be damage from something pushing against it for a long time, if it was stored that way for example. but whatever it is, the panel will need to be disassembled. Then you will know for sure.
uh oh. now its taken a turn for the worse in the diagnostic department
Go by size if it's less that 50, I wouldn't give m 50 bucks for it, no way in hell, then if it is panel failure you still have to go to the trouble of parting out to try to get your money back.
I think you are better off with this one, looks like it needs the strips replaced if they are running vertically, sure looks like they are, not a real simple job by no means but can be done with proper precautions, maybe check youtube tutorials, MUST be careful with the panel they are flimsy and VERY easy to break, suction cups are a good tool for this type job.
