I agree with above, what happened? Try using Google, make, model, and what is wrong you might get lucky with a solution. If you are not handy with opening up the TV and replacing parts, IMHO, just bite the bullet and buy a new set. I tried getting a set repaired about 3 years ago, it was a waste of money, I ended up throwing the TV away. I was not lucky is getting a suitable reply to the failure I had...
Last year I bought a 75 inch, 4k MONITOR, for under $1000. NOTE: this was NOT a TV which cost an additional $600, the difference is the MONITOR does NOT have a tuner. This was fine for us as we use a cable box. neighbors just bough a UHD 72 inch for a little more and it had a tuner, prices keep dropping. back to the repair, it cost $75 to get the repairman to the door, non refundable....

You didn't say what the issue was so I will make some guesses.
- the panel (the glass) is bad, buy a new TV - some of the diffusers for the back lighting have come loose. You can take the set apart and reattach the diffusers. Pretty easy, see Youtube for details. I have helped a friend do this in the past. - the system board is starting to fail. You can order a replacement over the internet and replace pretty easily. I have done this in the past. I would the highest probability at #2 - diffusers have come loose. Please provide more details and a picture if possible. Good luck.

If you had some bright, circular areas it would probably be a problem with the back light diffusers but based on what you just posted I believe there is a good chance your system board is failing. You may want to try replacing it yourself by ordering a new part over the internet. They are trivial to replace. Whether that is actually the issue is another story.
