Sharp lc-70le755u flickering picture/backlight

[BeeShadow]

Hey everyone! I inherited a "free" Sharp lc-70le755u with a strange picture issue. To try to explain, the picture flickers before what I think is a power saving mode kicks in and reduces the back light. I took a short video and uploaded it here:

I'm thinking it could be the TCon board, but possibly the panel. Thought it might be worth it to post here and see if anyone has a better idea before I try throwing parts at it. If its the panel (which I hope its not), then I won't bother trying to fix it.

Flickering image is a bad panel. Doesn't look like the backlight is flickering though it will be easier to tell with a proper video image. You can try blocking pins on the bad side or as a last resort, rip off the side tabs or side boards on the bad side once you identify which side is good.
