picked this up from the trash. TV has so absolutely no sign of damage on the outside. no cracks, no imperfection. BUT upon turning it on, this is what i see. looks as if someone punched it. (ignore the big black line in the middle, that’s the power cord)

Hi @tung256, That’s a broken panel and it can’t be fixed and needs to be replaced. Usually a replacement panel if you can find one can cost nearly as much as a new TV
