The only parts on the main board connected between E2 and the jungle IC are a 100 ohm resistor, a 220 pf surface mount capacitor, and a 2.2 uh coil.
If the flaring switches from blue to red or green when you swap the wires, you have a problem on the main board, and I'd bet that it's the jungle IC (or what RCA called the T-Chip).
BTW, if you put the TV on a blank input and activate the menus, does the blue flaring show up on the menus as well?

There is no evidence of blue flaring when put on a blank screen say in Video Source and pull up the menu items.
