hi all
Im hoping someone can point me in the direction to fixing a flicking issue on my Panasonic TX50A300B LCD TV not sure if it the back-lights, this is a white flicker with quite a few lines i can get to the menu (hard to see but i can navigate) i have reset turned the back light all the way down,it is the same on all av's i am a competent solderer if needed and can replace the back lights but don't want to be buying loads of parts in the hope i find the real issue when im hoping someone here may know exactly what it is.
thankyou for any help

i have uploaded a small vid so any of you can see really the issue

I'm afraid that looks to be a panel failure, it's certainly not backlight trouble, the second thing is that although the set is badged Panasonic it wasn't made by them, it is in actual fact a Vestel TV made in Turkey. For the last couple of years the entry and low end models were just Panasonic badged Vestels.

The chances of repairing the LCD panel are almost nil, the cost of a replacement even if it was available would be more than the cost of the set.

I'm led to believe that the Panasonic brand has been tarnished so much by problems with the Vestel re badged stuff that the partnership is no more.

It was hardly a 'partnership' - Panasonic just bought cheap sets from Vestel

But as you say, they dropped the idea earlier this year, so no more cheap Vestel sets with Panasonic badges.
