Sharp Aquos LC-42D62U Display Output Problem Can't Post

Hello, my Sharp Aquos LC-42D62U display output is not working right. I have multiple horizontal and vertical lines running throughout the display, similar to the infamous scene in the movie The Matrix. The lines are symmetrical, like graph paper, varying in colours. The links are below:

I have had it diagnosed at the repair shop but I want more opinions. His diagnosis was that the main board needed to be replaced.
So I installed my new main board. Turned on the TV, and it fixed the display problem, well sort of. As soon as the TV turns on, the screen goes to white with no lines that were previously there. However, the TV turned off, and now will not turn back on. The green LED light in the front is flashing once every second constantly. I put my original main board back in and guess what, same original problem, which is good. This may suggest that either the new main board is bunk or my psu may be at fault.

I then decided to install a new psu. No change. Then I decided to run some tests with what I had so far.
I will call my original components 1 and the new ones 2.
So I tested the set in the following arrangement with the following results.

psu 1 with main 1: org. problem as described
psu 2 with main 1: org. problem as described
psu 1 with main 2: new problem as described
psu 2 with main 2: new problem as described

Lastly, it was pointed out that my new main board may require a jumper that was not sold with mine. However, I have also been told that this jumper actually may not be required. But I do not know for sure. And furthermore, the two main boards I have are indeed the exact same model number, but have different arrangements. I was told that Sharp’s main boards are interchangeable between certain models.
The pics of my two main boards to show comparison are below:

And this pic is of the same model number with a jumper:

So before I go and order any new parts (I will try my best to recoup any costs) I was wondering if anyone would have any knowledge on this subject. Any advise would be appreciated.

Yes indeed they are not the same. However, I have talked with one person who was able to use a D72 board with a D62 model. He bought the board out of a different TV that had a cracked screen and used it in his TV that was a different model. He claims that Sharp's main boards are interchangeable. But because my different board did not work, I will be ordering a board that hopefully is exactly the same. I do find it strange though that Sharp would manufacture/purchase boards for their different models but give these boards the exact same part number. As you can see in the pictures I have posted, the part numbers are exactly the same, but clearly have different arrangments. Sucks for me I guess.

I got the second main board in today without a jumper. Put it in the set and now a third problem. The red lights on the main board do flash and there is power to the psu. But all that happens is the TV's relay turns and nothing happens. Then after about 20 sec. the relay turns again (click). It does this three times and then stops trying. During this time the screen remains black. No light flicker of any kind. Also, the front LED lights do not come on at all.
I can come up with three ideas.
1. The main boards are not interchangeable.
2. Both boards that I bought are malfunctioning.
3. They won't work without a jumper.
Either case, I can assume that the only solution is to buy the main board that is exactly the same as mine, even though all these different main boards share the same part number.

Crazy You have to have the jumper or the set will not work. The jumper tells the main board what model set it is in and what type of panel. As for the model# on the board, that is the model for the type of board, not the model# as to what type of circuitry. good luck to you
