@tracywoods82 sounds like a backlight issue. You do want to check the power supply board on this. Remove the back of your TV and take a look for any obvious damage. Leaking or domed looking capacitors as well as all the interconnect wiring are a prime suspect. Double check all that. Post some images of your boards etc. with your question. That way we can see what you see. Use this guide [guide|21499|commentid=417084] for that.
