The PO said he owned this for 14 months before it stopped displaying a picture. Turns out to be burnt out LEDs in the backlight.
I've torn it down. The LEDs are arranged in five long 14 led strips, each strip being two sets of seven in parallel. Only one half strip of seven still works so at least NINE DEAD LEDS!
The LEDs are six volts, the only ones I had on hand I harvested from an LG set. When installed there is an obvious difference in colour temperature, the new ones being much whiter than the cool blue of the original.
Anyone know anything about this type of led and where I might find some ?
