Panny LCD panel turned blue

[Ste7en]

My brother got a nice, new Sony 55" TeeVee so he gave his old Panny 50" LCD to our pops. I called in tonight to set it up and it was blue. I'm not talking a bit of a tint. The whole screen looked like it was wrapped in blue film.

Any suggestions regarding what the heck is going on would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

If the whole screen is blue with no other equipment connected and just showing the TV's setup menu that suggests a panel (or connections to it) fault.
Maybe it got damaged in the move.

Thanks. The setup menu is blue as well. Trying to get sense out of my brother but it is difficult "The text has always been blue". Even the black background has a blue tint to it. Many thanks for the reply.
